Tequila - 8 ano(s) e

Female · Puppy · 2 months

Tequila is a very anxious little dog and has a lot of fear of people and everything around her. She is constantly alert to everything happening around her and suffers because of it. It would be very important for her to have special godmothers and godfathers, equipped with patience and motivation, willing to help her, knowing that progress will come in small and slow steps (but very important!), each time. It would really be very important for her to receive this support to understand that no one will harm her and that she does not have to live in fear.

A Tequila é uma cadelinha muito ansiosa e com muito receio de pessoas e de tudo o que a rodeia. Está constantemente alerta a tudo o que se passa à sua volta e sofre com isso. Seria muito importante para ela ganhar madrinhas e padrinhos especiais, munidos de paciência e motivação, dispostos a ajudá-la, sabendo que os progressos se apresentarão em passinhos pequeninos e demorados (mas muito importantes!), de cada vez. Seria mesmo muito importante para ela receber esse apoio para entender que ninguém lhe fará mal e que não tem de viver em medo. Saibam como adoptar ou apadrinhar em uniaozoofila.org

About Tequila - 8 ano(s) e

What life with Tequila - 8 ano(s) e looks like

Tequila - 8 ano(s) e is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at União Zoófila in Lisboa.

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.

Note from the shelter: Severe anxiety and fearfulness requiring patient rehabilitation

🇵🇹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 Tequila - 8 ano(s) e, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tequila - 8 ano(s) e?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. União Zoófila handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tequila - 8 ano(s) e on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tequila - 8 ano(s) e if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — União Zoófila 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 Tequila - 8 ano(s) e 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 Tequila - 8 ano(s) e 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 União Zoófila early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tequila - 8 ano(s) e 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.
