Valky

Female · Adult · 5 years

Valky is a very beloved and loving girl who just makes you want to hug her. She is very gentle, adores treats and parties. Valky is very fearful outside and on walks. She needs someone who, with a lot of patience and at her own pace, can help her understand that walks are a good thing and that she can enjoy them.

PT·Show original

A Valky é uma menina muito querida e amorosa que só dá vontade de abraçar. É muito meiga, adora mimos e festas. A Valky tem muito receios no exterior e em passeio. Precisa de alguém que, com muita calma e ao seu ritmo, a faça compreender que os passeios são uma coisa boa e que ela pode apreciar.

About Valky

What life with Valky looks like

Valky is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at União Zoófila in Lisboa.

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 Valky, answered.

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