Wifi

Border Collie · Male · Adult · 4 years

Description Wifi is a puppy who arrived at the shelter with a lot of fear of people. When you walk by his kennel enclosure or he gets stuck in a corner or barks at you to try to scare you away. Behind those behaviors is nothing but a lot of fear... With patience and lots of love, some of the members of rivanimal have managed to earn his trust and he is now very friendly with them. He goes for walks and lets them put the harness on, those who belong to his "club of trust" Wifi needs a person who sees beyond his beauty and is able to dedicate the time and patience he needs.

Descripción WIFI es un perrete que llegó con mucho miedo a las personas. Cuando pasas por su chenil o se queda bloqueado en una esquina o te ladra para intentar ahuyentarte. Detrás de esos comportamientos no hay más que mucho miedo... Con paciencia y mucho cariño algunos de los miembros de rivanimal han conseguido ir ganándose su confianza y se muestra ya muy amigable con ellos. Sale de paseo y se deja poner el arnés por esos que pertenecen a su "club de confianza" WIFI necesita una persona que vea más allá de su belleza y sea capaz de dedicarle el tiempo y paciencia que necesita.

About Wifi

What life with Wifi looks like

Wifi is a medium-sized adult border collie dog waiting at Rivanimal (Rivas-Vaciamadrid) in Rivas-Vaciamadrid.

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 (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Wifi, answered.

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