About TOXO

What life with TOXO looks like

TOXO is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at CAAN — Centro de Acogida de Animales de la Diputación de Pontevedra in Spain.

An young 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 TOXO, answered.

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