Touro

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

I and my siblings were born in the area of Alcalar. Our mother lived in the countryside, she had no owner, so we were raised by a family that took us in and eventually brought us to the shelter when we were about 5 months old. We arrived at the shelter in March 2022.

eu e os meus irmãos nascemos na zona de Alcalar. A nossa mãe vivia no campo, não tinha dono, por isso fomos criados por uma família que nos recolheu e que acabou por nos levar para o abrigo, quando tínhamos à volta de 5 meses de idade. Chegámos ao abrigo em março de 2022.

About Touro

What life with Touro looks like

Touro is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Cadela Carlota in Cadela Carlota.

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 Touro, answered.

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