Scooby

Male · Puppy

I am a gentle, calm, and affectionate dog who gets along well with people and other dogs. I was abandoned on June 6, 2026 at 4 pm by my former owner, who left a note in the mailbox saying she could no longer take care of me. This is technically an abandonment. I already had a microchip registered to her name... Anyway, I'm a very kind and friendly dog. I hope someone will see me and recognize the wonderful dog that I am 😉 I have hope that this will happen. Also available for adoption!

Características: vacinado, desparasitado e castrado No dia 6 de junho de 2026, pelas 16h fui abandonado na Associação Bianca. A minha ex tutora deixou um bilhete na caixa do correio a dizer que não podia mais ficar comigo. Para todos os efeitos é um abandono. Eu já tinha chip em nome dela… Bom, sou um cãozinho muito gentil, calmo, meigo e sociável com pessoas e outros cães Estou mesmo triste por isso… mas espero que um humano olhe para mim e veja o cão maravilhoso que eu sou 😉 Tenho esperança que isso aconteça. Também disponível para apadrinhamento !

About Scooby

What life with Scooby looks like

Scooby is a large puppy/kitten dog waiting at Bianca APS in Portugal.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇹Adopting from Portugal

Portuguese rescues coordinate extensively with European rescue networks for cross-border placements, especially for galgos and podencos. Sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID are standard. Adoption fees typically cover the full vet workup.

Frequently asked

Adopting Scooby, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Scooby?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Bianca APS handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Scooby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Scooby if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Bianca APS 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 Scooby 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 Scooby 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 Bianca APS early rather than rehoming privately; they know Scooby 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 (PT). 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.
