AXELLE

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Axelle and her family have spent their entire lives confined within the four walls of a patio, never going outside or receiving even the slightest bit of love or attention. For the past few months, the family has joined the shelter, and Axelle can finally start to act like a puppy again—curious and tender. From her difficult past, Axelle still harbors a bit of apprehension toward humans she doesn’t know. She’ll need a gentle family who will patiently accompany her as she learns to feel comfortable and explores the world. But she’s an adorable young lady who already enjoys cuddles and the company of people she knows—and she’ll only need a short amount of time to feel truly at ease. Axelle urgently needs to find a family that believes in her and finally shows her what a loving home is all about, so she can blossom into a lively, self-confident dog. And this sweet girl truly deserves it!

Axelle et sa famille ont vécu toute leur vie enfermés entre les 4 murs d'un patio sans jamais sortir, ni recevoir le moindre amour ou la moindre attention. Depuis quelques mois, la famille a rejoint le refuge et Axelle peut enfin redevenir un peu un chiot, curieuse et tendre. De son passé difficile, Axelle garde un peu de crainte envers les humains qu'elles ne connait pas. Elle aura besoin d'une famille douce, qui l'accompagne avec patience pour se sentir à l'aise et découvrir le monde. Mais c'est une adorable demoiselle qui apprécie déjà les câlins et la présence des gens qu'elle connait et n'a besoin que de peu de temps pour se sentir en confiance.​ Axelle a besoin de trouver rapidement une famille qui croie en elle et lui montre enfin ce que c'est qu'un foyer aimant afin de devenir une chienne pleine de vie et de confiance en elle. Et cette douce demoiselle le mérite vraiment!

About AXELLE

What life with AXELLE looks like

AXELLE is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Association Kahlua in association kahlua.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇫🇷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 AXELLE, answered.

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