Zoe

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Zoe, a beautiful little fox, came to us with Sanidad after being found wondering alone, without a microchip. We later on found out that she comes from a situation of abuse, where she had been kept and hurt by drunk people. When she first arrived, she was missing fur on the back side of her body, seemingly due to some larger wound or damage of skin, but that luckily recovered very quickly and now she has beautiful full fur. Zoe absolutely loves "her humans", the caretakers that she sees every day and who take her out for walks and offer her yummy food. She goes nuts seeing them, dancing around, rolling on the floor, climbing up to the lap. When she meets new people, she is a bit mistrusting the first moment, but when people squat down closer to the ground, then she loosens up immediately and goes smooching to everyone, she just needs a little sign that you are not a threat, which is understandable as she has been beaten in the past. She is also lovely with men and with children, as long as everyone shows her they are not a threat, then she directly starts with the cuddles. Zoe loves to eat - snacks and yummy meat/fish are her favourite and she repays you with a happy dance. She really enjoys going for walks, and to run around in the dog park, jumping between the bushes. At the moment she reacts to other dogs in a barky manner, we do not know if that is from the shelter stress and feeling insecure in other dogs presence or maybe it is due to complete lack of previous canine socialisation. At the moment Zoe is looking for a home where to be a single princess in a calm environment, but we will start socialisations with her in the shelter, to see if she would like to live with or to be together with other dogs as well. Her shoulder height is just about 35cm, she is a small girl.

About Zoe

What life with Zoe looks like

Zoe is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Triple A Marbella in Marbella.

An young 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 Zoe, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Zoe?
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 Zoe on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Zoe 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Zoe 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 Zoe 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 Zoe 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
