Tom

Male · Puppy

Tom is a playful rooster who became a lively and fun puppy after being rescued from the slaughterhouse weak and malnourished. He was taken in by our Isabelleke and became a playful and fun puppy. A previously shy little guy who can be so sweet. He is super social and loves to play with his fellow dogs. He is a young puppy who can and must learn everything with time and energy. A dog that is definitely worth the effort.

Tom is een guitige kapoen geworden nadat hij zwak en ondervoed gered werd van het dodenstation. Hij werd opgevangen door ons Isabelleke en werd een speelse toffe pup. Een eerder verlegen ventje die zo lief kan zijn. Hij is super sociaal, en speelt graag met zijn soortgenoten. Hij is een jonge pup die nog alles kan en moet leren mits er tijd en energie voor over is. Een hondje dat zeker de moeite waard is.

About Tom

What life with Tom looks like

Tom is a puppy dog waiting at ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) in Spain.

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 Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tom, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tom?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tom on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tom if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Tom 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 Tom 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 ACE / SHIN (Animal Care Espana) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tom 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 (NL). 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.
