ASPEN

Australian Shepherd · Female · Young · 1 year

ASPEN arrived at the shelter with her brother, Adès, whom we would like to see her adopted with. She is a very gentle and dynamic dog who will need presence and physical and mental expenditures to thrive. She has good basic training, but that will need to be continued! ASPEN needs a family ready to invest in her well-being. She has trouble being alone and shows a bit of fear towards strangers at first. If your profile matches these two little ones, don't hesitate to come meet them at the shelter!

About ASPEN

What life with ASPEN looks like

ASPEN is a young adult australian shepherd dog waiting at Haute-Marne) in Voillecomte.

An young 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 ASPEN, answered.

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