Nuestro querido WALTER 🥎

Mixed Breed · Unknown

WALTER was born, approximately, in December 2017. This caramel prince is now part of the family at our shelter, where we will provide the necessary care until he finds his permanent family, where he will be loved and treated as he deserves. To ADOPT WALTER, press the button or access the end of the page where you will find the contact form and all the information about the process. His owner left for a foreign country without looking back, leaving two dogs and a cat to fend for themselves. The other dog and cat were rehomed, but our friend WALTER did not have that luck. He spent the past months in a small courtyard on a provisional basis while a place for him was being found. Now, fortunately for WALTER, he is part of the animal shelter, where he will wait for that family that will never abandon him again. A pet is a responsibility that many people still do not understand, but we will try to change the lives and continue offering new opportunities to the animals we can. If you cannot adopt but want to help another one of our dogs or cats enjoy a family life in a home with all their needs met, and give them lots of love while their permanent family is found, BECOME A FOSTER CARE HOME. Access all the information through this button or fill out the form you will see below and we will tell you everything you need to know. WALTER is a mixed breed of medium size. With people, WALTER is a friendly, affectionate, obedient, and docile dog who walks very well on a leash. However, at the animal shelter, he shows extreme nervousness and agitation, especially in the presence of other dogs. We know that the animal shelter, especially for some dogs that have already lived several years in a house, is a very radical change and a hostile environment that often does not favor the display of the true character of the animal. Currently, due to this state of anxiety and agitation, WALTER is not comfortable in the presence of other dogs. It would be ideal for him to find a foster care home where he can relax. Veterinary aspects WALTER is delivered with a microchip, passport, up-to-date vaccinations, and a negative disease test. Additionally, he is neutered. If you want to adopt WALTER, contact us and we will tell you how to do it. You can contact us via email or fill out the form you will see below if you have any doubts or want to know more about him. We will be happy to tell you everything you need to know. Your name (required) Your email (required)

WALTER nació, aproximadamente, en 2017. Aquí queremos darle la oportunidad que hasta ahora nadie le ha dado: un hogar donde no vuelva a ser abandonado. &;&; Quizás Walter no necesite una familia perfecta. Quizás solo necesite a esa persona capaz de entenderle, darle su espacio, tener paciencia y demostrarle que esta vez es para siempre. Para ADOPTAR a WALTER pulsa el botón o accede al final de la página donde encontrarás el formulario de contacto y toda la información acerca del procedimiento. Su dueña se marchó al extranjero, sin mirar atrás, dejando a dos perros y a un gato a su suerte. El otro perro y el gato pudieron ser reubicados pero no hubo esa suerte para nuestro amigo WALTER , que ha pasado estos últimos meses en un pequeño patio de forma provisional mientras se le encontraba un sitio para él. Ahora, por suerte para WALTER , forma parte del refugio, donde espera a esa familia que nunca vuelva a abandonarlo. Un animal es una responsabilidad que muchas personas todavía no entienden pero nosotros vamos a intentar cambiar la vida y seguir ofreciendo nuevas oportunidades a los animales que podamos. Si no puedes adoptar pero quieres ayudar a otro de nuestros perros o gatos a disfrutar de la vida en familia, en un hogar con todas las necesidades cubiertas, y darle mucho amor mientras aparece su familia definitiva, HAZTE CASA DE ACOGIDA . Accede a toda la información a través de este botón o rellena el formulario que verás más abajo y te contamos todo lo que necesites saber. WALTER es un mestizo de tamaño mediano (15 kg) . Con las personas es un auténtico amor: sociable, cariñoso, obediente y dócil . Además, pasea fenomenal con correa y disfruta muchísimo cuando puede estar acompañado. Pero hay una realidad que nos preocupa muchísimo… Walter lo está pasando realmente mal en el refugio. &; Cuando estamos con él se relaja, busca nuestra compañía y parece encontrar un poquito de calma. Pero cuando llega el momento de marcharnos y se queda solo en su parcela, la ansiedad vuelve a aparecer . Y se está notando físicamente. Está adelgazando muchísimo, hasta el punto de que se está quedando en los huesos. &; No queremos que Walter siga viviendo así. Sabemos que no es un caso sencillo y que no cualquier familia es adecuada para él. Actualmente no se siente cómodo en presencia de otros perros y, por eso, necesitaría un hogar donde pueda estar tranquilo, sin la presión y el estrés que supone el ambiente del refugio. Pero también sabemos algo muy importante: Walter no es solo lo que vemos cuando está asustado o desbordado. &; Detrás de esa ansiedad hay un perro que sabe querer, que busca a las personas, que disfruta de sus paseos y que solo necesita volver a sentirse seguro. Walter ya ha sufrido demasiado. Ayúdanos a compartir su historia . Porque quizá su futura familia esté ahí fuera y todavía no sepa que Walter existe. Aspectos veterinarios WALTER se entrega con chip, pasaporte, vacunas al día y test de enfermedades negativo. Además, se entrega esterilizado. Si quieres adoptar a WALTER, contacta con nosotros y te contamos cómo hacerlo. Puedes contactar con nosotros a través del correo o rellenando el formulario que verás aquí abajo si tienes dudas o quieres saber más sobre él. Estaremos encantados de contarte todo cuanto necesites conocer. Tu nombre (requerido) Tu correo electrónico (requerido) Nombre del perro/gato que deseas adoptar/acoger

About Nuestro querido WALTER 🥎

What life with Nuestro querido WALTER 🥎 looks like

Nuestro querido WALTER 🥎 is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at El Refugio Escuela Marlene in Spain.

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. Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nuestro querido WALTER 🥎, answered.

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