Adopt Saigon dina

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

After a Seprona operation, several dogs were seized; they lived in an enclosure without proper veterinary care. A lady had been adopting dogs with good intentions, but she lacked the means and knowledge to care for them. Among them are Mekkong, Hanoi, and Saigón: these three are very similar in size and are a family (Mekkong is the father of Hanoi). We know nothing about their lives before they were seized at the farm where they were found. They are very timid and until they complete their quarantine, we cannot assess their personalities. They need a lot of love and work to trust humans. Leishmania analysis is positive; treatment has begun. Already neutered. Test 4 Idexx (Ehrlichia, Heartworm, Anaplasma, and Borrelia) negative.

Tras una operación del Seprona, se han incautado varios perros, vivían en un recinto sin los cuidados ni atención veterinaria, una señora recogía perros con buena intención, pero no tenía ni medios ni conocimientos para el cuidado de los animales. Entre ellos están Mekkong, Hanoi y Saigón: Estos tres que son muy parecidos de tamaño, son familia (Mekong es padre de Hanoi), nada sabemos de su vida antes de llegar a la finca donde fueron incautados. Son muy miedosos y hasta que no terminen la cuarentena, no podemos valorar su carácter, necesitan mucho cariño y trabajo para que confíen en los humanos. Analítica de leishmania positiva, se inicia tratamiento. Ya está castrado. Test 4 Idexx (ehrlichia, filaria, anaplasma y borrelia) negativo. Mostrar más de su historia Mostrar menos

About Saigon dina

What life with Saigon dina looks like

Saigon dina is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at ALBA Protectora Madrid in Madrid.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Saigon dina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Saigon dina?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ALBA Protectora Madrid handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Saigon dina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Saigon dina if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ALBA Protectora Madrid will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Saigon dina already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Saigon dina isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ALBA Protectora Madrid early rather than rehoming privately; they know Saigon dina and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (ES). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
