Yaco - Senior Alert

Podenco · Male · Senior · 9 years

Yaco, a beautiful white-faced Podenco senior, was handed over to the shelter by his human who does not want him anymore. It looks like Yaco does not yet realise that he has been abandoned, because he comes across cheerful, happy to see people, glad to go for a walk. At the same time, it is very easy to see that he is extremely stressed by the loud shelter environment - he still has his hearing, and the loudness, the barking of the shelter, the unknown surrounding, all stranger faces, is really stressing him out…. In his kennel he is quite calm, and he has good appetite (while he is not too stressed). He especially loves little salami sausages, and seems to especially enjoy the company of kind men - perhaps he associates men with the human he has been left behind by. Yaco walks very nicely on the leash, he is curious and loves to go sniffing in the bushes. He is looking for a calm home, without too many stressors or noises, but at the same time his perfect human would be a relatively active human who loves to go to nature walks. Considering his stress response to noise and many things happening, we believe that a quiet neighborhood, on the countryside or suburbs, would be most suitable for him. In the shelter, Yaco will receive a dental cleaning, health check, nail cutting and a bath. His shoulder height is 54cm and he seems to be in a quite good physical condition. All of our seniors are looking for forever homes or forever fosters. The shelter will always be available for medical & behavioral support for seniors in their retirement homes.

About Yaco - Senior Alert

What life with Yaco - Senior Alert looks like

Yaco - Senior Alert is a medium-sized senior podenco dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

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.

🇪🇸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 Yaco - Senior Alert, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Yaco - Senior Alert?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Triple A Marbella handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Yaco - Senior Alert on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Yaco - Senior Alert if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Triple A Marbella 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 Yaco - Senior Alert 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 Yaco - Senior Alert 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 Triple A Marbella early rather than rehoming privately; they know Yaco - Senior Alert 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
