How do I contact the shelter about Anakin?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA de l handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Anakin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Anakin if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA de l 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 Anakin 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 Anakin 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 de l early rather than rehoming privately; they know Anakin 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.

Anakin

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male

Abandoned from an unidentified car. Positive: football player; loves playing tag; energetic. Negative: shy; needs to know how to read canine stress signals; rough. Hello my little Padawans, my name is Anakin 🙂 You understood well with this name I can only be on the good side of the force. Talking about me is easy, I am a dog full of positive energy and unstoppable dynamism. My favorite sin? Making you run 😅 To gain my attention and reassure me every day, playing will be a good way because despite my festive character I remain a dog with some traumas to heal. I need an attentive family who can recognize signs of distress and stress because some situations can generate anxiety that needs to be handled and alleviated so I can thrive. A family that has had other furry companions before will be ideal so I can have blind trust in them because they are dog experts. I deserve to find a family that knows how to heal the wounds of my heart and can make me taste happiness. Come meet me soon because I am your dog ❤️ May the force be with you and lead you to my nose so we can be together for the rest of my life. In the breed story: 33 to 40 cm tall for 12 to 17 kg; lifespan of 12 to 14 years; affectionate; patient; protective; intelligent; courageous; tenacious; excellent guard dog; prone to cold; a ball of energy.

About Anakin

What life with Anakin looks like

Anakin is a medium-sized adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at SPA de l in France.

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.
