Bambino

Border Collie · Male · Young · 2 years

Bambino 27 January 2026 His story: Bambino arrived very thin and is regaining his ideal weight with us. He is not neutered but seems okay with dogs, for cats we don't know. This dog is very close to people, very affectionate, walks well on a leash and responds to "sit". He seems not very playful but it's something to see over time. He will be ideal in a family or with single people. Bambino will need daily walks or a garden (he loves to sniff various scents and seems to have an excellent sense of smell) as well as to complete his training.

Bambino 27 janvier 2026 Son histoire : Bambino est arrivé très amaigri et reprend son poids de forme auprès de nous. Il n’est pas castré mais semble ok chiens, pour le chat nous ne savons pas. Ce chien est très proche de l’homme, très câlin, marche très bien laisse et répond à « assis ». Il semble peu joueur mais à voir avec le temps. Il sera idéal dans une famille ou avec des personnes seuls. Bambino aura besoin de sortis journalières ou d’un jardin (il adore sentir diverses odeurs et semble avoir un excellent odora) ainsi que de finaliser son éducation.

About Bambino

What life with Bambino looks like

Bambino is a young adult border collie dog waiting at SOS Animaux 23 in pet s rescue france.

An young 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 Bambino, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bambino?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SOS Animaux 23 handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bambino on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bambino if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SOS Animaux 23 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 Bambino 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 Bambino 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 SOS Animaux 23 early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bambino 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.
