Aiko

Australian Shepherd · Male

Aiko, un jeune chien à qui tout reste tout à découvrir ! Il est pucé, vacciné et castré Aiko est un jeune Berger australien qui est malheureusement de retour au refuge. À seulement un an, il a encore toute la vie devant lui… mais aussi énormément de choses à découvrir. Durant sa première année de vie, Aiko n’a pas eu l’occasion de découvrir suffisamment le monde qui l’entoure. Il arrive donc avec un certain retard dans ses apprentissages et aura besoin d’un adoptant prêt à l’accompagner avec temps, patience et bienveillance. Comme beaucoup de jeunes chiens de sa race, Aiko est très dynamique et a besoin de se dépenser aussi bien physiquement que mentalement. Il adore partir en balade et profiter de nouvelles découvertes. Les promenades seront donc un élément essentiel de son quotidien et un formidable moyen de créer une relation de confiance avec lui. Aiko aura besoin d’un environnement adapté à son énergie et à ses besoins. Nous recherchons pour lui une famille disposant d’un grand jardin entièrement clôturé, mais surtout des personnes suffisamment présentes à ses côtés pour l’accompagner dans ses découvertes et lui apprendre progressivement tout ce qu’il n’a pas encore eu l’occasion de connaître. Avec du temps, de la patience et une relation basée sur la confiance, Aiko pourra progressivement rattraper toutes ces expériences qui lui ont manqué et découvrir le plaisir de partager la vie d’une famille. Venez le rencontrer au refuge de Sisteron ! Pour plus de renseignement n'hésitez pas à nous contacter !

About Aiko

What life with Aiko looks like

Aiko is a medium-sized adult australian shepherd dog waiting at Association Canine Sisteronaise in association canine sisteronaise.

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 Aiko, answered.

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