Adopt AYA

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

AYA is a beautiful dog who arrived via a transfer from the SPA d’Hermeray. After over 7 long years in a shelter, it’s finally time for her to experience the warmth and stability of a real family. Very affectionate, AYA can sometimes be a bit brusque in her displays of tenderness, simply because she overflows with love and enthusiasm. She is sociable with some people she meets, but can be more reserved or uncomfortable in certain situations, which is why a calm rural environment will be best for her well-being. Gourmet, joyful, and full of life, AYA seeks dynamic and compassionate adopters ready to share beautiful moments with her. Operated on her ligaments, she will need to avoid homes with too many stairs. She gets along with some other animals of the same species and will appreciate beautiful walks after good introductions. AYA can also live with large respectful children. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children.

Aya est une magnifique chienne arrivée suite à un transfert de la SPA d’Hermeray. Après plus de 7 longues années passées en refuge, il est enfin temps pour elle de découvrir la chaleur et la stabilité d’une vraie famille. Très affectueuse, Aya peut parfois se montrer un peu brusque dans ses élans de tendresse, simplement parce qu’elle déborde d’amour et d’enthousiasme. Sociable avec certaines personnes qu’elle rencontre, être plus réservée ou mal à l’aise dans certaines situations, un environnement calme à la campagne sera privilégié pour son bien-être. Gourmande, joyeuse et pleine de vie, Aya recherche des adoptants dynamiques et bienveillants, prêts à partager de beaux moments avec elle. Opérée des ligaments, elle devra éviter les logements avec trop d’escaliers. Elle s’entend avec certains congénères et appréciera de belles promenades après de bonnes présentations. Aya pourra également vivre avec de grands enfants respectueux.

About AYA

What life with AYA looks like

AYA is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Amiens) in Poulainville.

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 AYA, answered.

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