Abby

Mixed Breed · Female

Abby needs a little time to build trust, but once she feels secure, she'll shower you with affection, eagerly seeking out cuddles and happily snuggling into your lap. Her love for treats will be a real asset as she learns new things, since she still has so much to discover. Don't let her small size fool you—she knows how to assert herself around other dogs.

ABBY a besoin d'un peu de temps pour accorder sa confiance, mais une fois rassurée, elle vous couvrira de câlins. Elle n'hésitera pas à réclamer des caresses dont elle raffole, ou à se poser sur vos genoux. Sa gourmandise sera un véritable atout pour l'accompagner dans ses apprentissages, car elle a encore beaucoup de choses à découvrir. Ne vous fiez pas à son petit gabarit, elle sait très bien s'affirmer face aux autres chiens. Partager cette page sur facebook ou X-twitter Adopter un chien : ABBY, chien CHIHUAHUA femelle de 2 ans

About Abby

What life with Abby looks like

Abby is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Abby, answered.

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