How do I contact the shelter about Bambi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA de Besançon handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bambi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Bambi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA de Besançon 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 Bambi 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 Bambi 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 Besançon early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bambi and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Bambi

Yorkshire Terrier · Male · Senior · 16 years

Bambi is an adorable Loulou, very affectionate and calm. He enjoys petting, even if he doesn't necessarily ask for it. Recently, he has also calmed down with the other dog in his foster family and now ignores him. Due to his arthritis, Bambi moves slowly and stays mainly in the garden to do his business. He doesn't walk on a leash and spends a good part of his time sleeping. He still has a very good appetite. Bambi doesn't always respond to his name, whether it's simply a lack of habit or reduced hearing. He gets along well with cats. Bambi also has many cysts on his body, which may be impressive at first, but don't detract from his adorable personality. Bambi is looking for a calm, gentle and caring home, where he can enjoy a peaceful retirement surrounded by affection. He benefits from the support of the 30 Million Friends Foundation: his adoption is done as a donation (capped at €50) and an aid of up to €1,000 for veterinary expenses is granted.

Bambi est un adorable Loulou, très attachant et calme. Il apprécie les caresses, même s’il ne vient pas forcément les réclamer. Depuis quelque temps, il s’est également apaisé avec l’autre chien de sa famille d’accueil et l’ignore désormais. En raison de son arthrose, Bambi se déplace lentement et reste principalement dans le jardin pour faire ses besoins. Il ne marche pas en laisse et passe une bonne partie de son temps à dormir. Il conserve cependant un très bon appétit. Bambi ne réagit pas toujours à son nom, sans que l’on sache s’il s’agit simplement d’un manque d’habitude ou d’une audition diminuée. Il est parfaitement OK avec les chats. Bambi présente également de nombreux kystes sur le corps, qui peuvent impressionner au premier abord, mais qui n’enlèvent rien à son adorable personnalité. Bambi recherche avant tout un foyer calme, doux et bienveillant, où il pourra profiter d’une retraite paisible entouré d’affection. Il bénéficie du soutien de la Fondation 30 Millions d’Amis : son adoption se fait en don libre (plafonné à 50 €) et une aide pouvant aller jusqu’à 1 000 € pour les frais vétérinaires est accordée.

About Bambi

What life with Bambi looks like

Bambi is a senior yorkshire terrier dog waiting at SPA de Besançon in France.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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.
