ASTON

Labrador Retriever · Male · Young · 1 year

Aston is a young 9-month-old Labrador, full of life and energy. Like any adolescent puppy, he still has much to learn and will need gentle, consistent training to become a balanced companion. He hasn't yet mastered leash walking but shows good learning abilities. Aston gets along with other dogs, which is great for meetings and socialization. However, he doesn't know cats. Aston is looking for a stable, patient and available home, ideally with a house, where he can exercise and develop in a reassuring environment. With time, love and a little work, Aston will become a faithful and endearing dog.

About ASTON

What life with ASTON looks like

ASTON is a large young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Mirepoix in Mirepoix.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 ASTON, answered.

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