Tiger

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

I am a dog with a lot of personality, active and full of life. Date of birth: 05.12.2017 Gender: female My life story: I was delivered to the shelter in November 2015, after having spent several months in the field, in the Portelas area (Lagos). My inseparable companion Lyla and I were left alone by our own owners, who decided to travel and move to another country. For a while, the neighbors took care of us and it was also they who called Cadela Carlota to help us and give us a safe place to live. My temperament: I am a dog with a lot of personality, active and full of life. I love watching everything around me - nothing escapes me! I really like receiving affection from humans and get along well with other dogs. I am cheerful, I love walking, playing and having fun, and my greatest wish is to find a new home with a caring family that will keep me forever.

Sou uma cadela cheia de personalidade, ativa e cheia de vida. Data de nascimento: 05.12.2017 Género: fêmea A minha história de vida: fui entregue no abrigo em novembro de 2015, depois de ter passado vários meses pelo campo, na zona das Portelas (Lagos). Eu e a minha inseparável companheira Lyla fomos deixadas sozinhas pelos nossos próprios donos, que decidiram viajar e ir viver para outro país. Durante algum tempo, foram os vizinhos que cuidaram de nós e foram também eles que chamaram a Cadela Carlota para nos ajudar e nos dar um local seguro onde viver. O meu temperamento: sou uma cadela cheia de personalidade, ativa e cheia de vida. Adoro observar tudo à minha volta — nada me escapa! Gosto muito de receber mimos dos humanos e dou-me bem com outros cães. Sou alegre, adoro passear, brincar e divertir-me, e o meu maior desejo é encontrar uma nova casa com uma família carinhosa, que fique comigo para sempre.

About Tiger

What life with Tiger looks like

Tiger is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Cadela Carlota & Companhia in Portugal.

An 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 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 Tiger, answered.

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