Bao

Belgian Malinois · Male · Puppy · 4 months

Mon histoire : Voici Bao, un adorable petit mâle croisé Jack Russell et Malinois, au joli pelage noir. Il est arrivé au refuge suite à un abandon volontaire, ses anciens propriétaires le trouvant trop énergique pour son âge.Pourtant, Bao n’est qu’un chiot de 4 mois, plein de vie, de curiosité et d’envie de découvrir le monde ! Mon caractère : Comme tous les chiots, il aura besoin d’une famille patiente et bienveillante, prête à l’accompagner dans ses apprentissages. Il devra apprendre à canaliser son énergie et à gérer ses émotions. Il pourra bien sûr faire quelques bêtises : après tout, il est encore tout petit et a tout à apprendre ! La propreté est en cours d’acquisition et presque acquise. Il faudra simplement poursuivre cet apprentissage avec patience et bienveillance. Côté ententes, Bao s’entend très bien avec les autres chiens et adore jouer avec eux. Il est également OK chats et pourra rejoindre un foyer avec des félins, sous réserve de présentations progressives. Une famille avec des enfants pourra aussi lui convenir, à condition que chacun respecte son rythme et ses besoins. J'aime / J'aime pas : Bao est un petit gourmand qui appréciera les séances d’éducation avec de bonnes friandises à la clé ! Il adore également découvrir de nouveaux endroits et partir à l’aventure. Le monde est encore tout nouveau pour lui, et il ne demande qu’à l’explorer aux côtés de sa future famille. Bao a tout à découvrir et toute une vie à construire ! Il aura besoin d’une famille prête à s’investir dans son éducation, à lui proposer des activités adaptées à son âge, de belles découvertes, des moments de jeu, mais aussi du repos et de la stabilité.

About Bao

What life with Bao looks like

Bao is a puppy belgian malinois dog waiting at APAA Trégrom in France.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇫🇷Adopting from France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bao, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bao?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APAA Trégrom handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bao on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bao if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APAA Trégrom 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Bao 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 Bao 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 APAA Trégrom early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bao 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.
