Adopt Torito

Mixed Breed · Unknown

This medium to large-sized cutie is named Torito and is waiting for your arrival at our animal shelter. He's a friendly and affectionate pup with people, and he's house-trained. He still doesn't know how to do dishes, but that's okay – it's all about learning. On the street, he's working on learning to walk on a leash, as well as socializing with other dogs (for now, they're not his favorite). He's a very affectionate and sweet pup! He does great in the car and loves going for walks! We're looking for a family that can dedicate time to him and continue to help him through this process. Promise commitment and lots of licks in return for your effort. Torito has been waiting for adoption for a long time, and we don't understand why he doesn't receive applications. Do you want to be the buddy that Torito has been waiting for so long?

About Torito

What life with Torito looks like

Torito is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at ADA Gran Canaria in Gran Canaria.

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 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 Torito, answered.

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