Babylo

Male · Adult · 8 years

Il se montre cool et agréable, apprécie énormément les interactions et aime être auprès d’eux. Il reste toutefois encore craintif avec certaines personnes qu’il ne connaît pas. À la maison, tout se passe très bien. Il apprécie particulièrement le confort de l’intérieur et aime se poser dans les petits coins sombres et frais. Il peut rester seul quelques heures, mais cela doit rester occasionnel : pendant les absences, il semble surtout attendre patiemment le retour de la personne. En balade, Babylo est devenu beaucoup plus curieux et la marche en laisse est actuellement à retravailler. Il a énormément de force et, lorsqu’il a décidé de partir derrière quelque chose qui l’intéresse, il peut être très difficile à retenir. Un travail avec un éducateur canin serait donc à prévoir pour l’aider à mieux gérer ses réactions et les différents stimuli. Le rappel est correct lorsqu’il n’y a aucun stimulus autour. Il est content de rencontrer les autres chiens, mais les mâles entiers peuvent provoquer des tensions, notamment si la présentation n’est pas adaptée ou si les interactions deviennent trop importantes. Une surveillance est donc nécessaire. Les chats (et les motos) restent très difficiles pour lui : il peut vouloir partir brusquement à leur poursuite et tirer fortement. Babylo apprécie particulièrement les balades en colline et pourra continuer à progresser au sein de sa famille, avec des sorties adaptées, de la patience et un cadre rassurant.

About Babylo

What life with Babylo looks like

Babylo is a large adult dog waiting at Sans Collier Provence in France.

An 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 Babylo, answered.

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