Skadi

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Skadi arrived to us without a microchip or any background information, during the time that the hunting season ended in Spain for the year, so most likely she is a "leftover" from the hunters. She was found by a volunteers and brought to shelter. In the beginning Skadi was very shy and avoided contact with humans, but by now Skadi is feeling much more comfortable around humans, even though she is still not like a cuddling type of dog. She walks well on the leash and enjoys to go on nature adventures with volunteers, especially when she has a dog friend with her. In the shelter she lives very harmonously in a group with other dogs, one cheerful playful female and one social Podenco male. With Maus, they love to go hunting in the bushes together, as soon as they get to the dogpark together, they start their tour in the bushes, and you will only see their tails wagging in the high grass. But, Skadi is very snack-motivated, so when you open the snack bag, she will appear next to you and stick out her long slim nose, to make sure she gets as many snacks as possible. We have not yet been to a city environment with Skadi, but seeing how she enjoys hunting for bugs in the bushes, we can assume that she would most like to live in a nature environment, either on the countryside or in the suburbs, close to fields and forests. Skadi would definitely wish to have a second or more dogs already waiting for her at her new home, to show her the way into the new life. Skadi is a typical podenco with her interest towards mice, birds, butterflies - a home experienced with Podencos, Bretons and these types of dogs, would be ideal! She has already been checked for Mediterranean diseases and she is negative for Leishmania. Her shoulder height is approximately 48cm.

About Skadi

What life with Skadi looks like

Skadi is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

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 Skadi, answered.

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