Adopt AKA

Labrador Retriever · Male · Senior · 9 years

AKA comes from another animal shelter. He is a friendly and human-loving dog. Aka is an adorable four-legged companion who knows how to settle down and appreciate his comfort. He is not social with other dogs and barks at them while on walks, so he should be placed in a quieter area to avoid city living. He can live with respectful children. Aka is housebroken and can tolerate a little solitude.

AKA nous vient d’une autre SPA. C’est un chien avenant et proche de l’humain. Aka est un adorable compagnon à 4 pattes actif qui sait se poser et apprécie son confort. Il n'est pas sociable avec les chiens et leur aboie dessus en balade, on évitera donc un placement en pleine ville. Il pourra vivre avec des enfants respectueux. Aka est propre et pourra supporter un peu de solitude.

About AKA

What life with AKA looks like

AKA is a large senior labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Plaisir in Plaisir.

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. SPA Plaisir 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 — SPA Plaisir 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 SPA Plaisir 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.
