Adopt Aurus

Labrador Retriever · Male

My name is Aurus, a medium-sized dog weighing about 15kg, I have the ideal size to accompany you in your life. I am very happy and playful, but I will need to learn how to channel my energy to be the perfect companion. Also, I will need to learn to be alone, a fellow animal of the same species already present in my family would be ideal if you cannot take me with you on your outings. His adoption fee is 315€, which includes veterinary fees (microchip identification, first vaccination, neutering, deworming). The shelter is open every day from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesdays) from 2pm to 5pm.

Moi c'est Aurus, chien moyen d'environ 15kg, j'ai le gabarit idéal pour vous suivre dans votre vie. Je suis très joyeux, joueur mais il faudra m'apprendre à me canaliser afin d'être le compagnon parfait. Aussi, j'aurai besoin d'apprendre à rester seul, un congénère déjà présent dans ma famille serait idéal si vous ne pouvez pas me faire suivre dans vos déplacements. Son adoption s'élève à 315€, cela comprend les frais vétérinaires (identification par puce électronique, la primo-vaccination, la castration, le déparasitage). Le refuge est ouvert tous les jours du lundi au dimanche (sauf les mardis) de 14H à 17H.

About Aurus

What life with Aurus looks like

Aurus is a medium-sized adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA de Périgueux 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Aurus, answered.

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