TSUKI

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

A dog named Mika was abandoned at the doorstep of Milu's house 10 years ago! She was pregnant and couldn't wait. She gave birth that same night to 5 puppies. Over time, 3 dogs were adopted, but 2 daughters grew up in the shelter and were never adopted, just like their mother. One of them is TSUKI, a very gentle female dog who loves human attention. She loves to eat, which is why she is so chubby, but it's difficult to control the daily recommended portions when food is available. Tuski has no fears, unlike her mother. She gets along well with all the dogs. We would really like TSUKI not to end her days in the shelter. It's not fair. She has never known what a home is. She deserves to be very happy. TSUKI is vaccinated, dewormed, spayed, and has a microchip.

Uma cadela de nome Mika foi abandonada à porta da residência da Milu há 10 anos atrás! Estava grávida, e não conseguiu esperar. Pariu nessa mesma noite 5 bebês. Ao longo do tempo, 3 cachorros foram adotados, mas 2 filhas cresceram no abrigo e nunca foram adotadas, tal como a mãe. Uma delas é a Tsuki, uma cadela muito meiga, que adora atenção humana. Adora comer por isso está tão gordinha, mas no abrigo é difícil controlar as doses diárias recomendadas quando a comida está à disposição. A Tuski não tem medos, ao contrário da mãe. Dá-se bem com todos os cães. Gostaríamos muito que a Tsuki não acabasse os seus dias no abrigo. Não é justo. Nunca soube o que era um lar. Ela merece muito ser feliz. A Tsuki está vacinada, desparasitada, esterilizada e com microchip.

About TSUKI

What life with TSUKI looks like

TSUKI is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at O Cantinho da Milu in Lisbon.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

Note from the shelter: Overweight - needs portion control and weight management

🇵🇹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 TSUKI, answered.

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