AKA

Labrador Retriever · Male · Senior · 9 years

AKA came to us from another animal shelter in order to give him a fresh start, as he unfortunately tends to go unnoticed. Yet he’s a wonderful, friendly dog who loves being close to people and remains in great shape despite his age. AKA is a dog full of wonderful qualities who truly deserves a second chance. He does have his little quirks and would prefer a life more suited to the countryside. Come meet him—or just chat about him! You never know, you might just fall head over heels <3

FR·Show original

AKA nous vient d’une autre SPA afin de lui donner une nouvelle chance car il passe malheureusement inaperçu. C’est pourtant un super chien avenant et proche de l’humain, encore bien en forme malgré son âge. Aka est un chien plein de qualités qui mérite vraiment qu'on lui laisse sa chance. Il a aussi ses petites habitudes et préfèrera une vie plutôt à la campagne. Venez le rencontrer ou juste parler de lui, on est jamais à l'abris d'un coup de coeur <3

About AKA

What life with AKA looks like

AKA is a senior labrador retriever dog waiting at Jean Leriche) in Moree.

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 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 AKA, answered.

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