Baya

Female

I am named Baya. I am a mix between a mastiff and an Argentine mastiff. Born to elderly people who could no longer keep me, I still lack proper education. I am the largest in my litter, just as shy as my brothers and sisters. I need to learn to trust and thrive. I seek a calm environment where I can be stimulated with patience and gentleness, so that I can become a balanced and happy adult dog. If you are ready to offer me a new loving family and accompany me in my learning, I will be very grateful. My adoption fee is 340€, which includes veterinary costs: microchipping, first vaccination, and deworming. A security deposit check of 300€ will be requested, which binds you to spay or neuter me starting from my 6 months. The shelter is open every day from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesdays) from 14:00 to 17:00.

FR·Show original

Je m’appelle Baya. Je suis issue d’un croisement entre une dogue et un dogue argentin. Née chez des personnes âgées qui ne pouvaient plus me garder, je manque encore d’éducation. Je suis la plus grande de la portée, aussi craintive comme mes frères et soeurs. J’ai besoin d’apprendre à faire confiance et à m’épanouir. Je recherche un environnement calme où je pourrai être stimulé avec patience et douceur, afin de devenir un chien adulte équilibré et heureux. Si vous êtes prêt à m’offrir une nouvelle famille aimante et à m’accompagner dans mon apprentissage, je serai très reconnaissant. Mon adoption s'élève à 340€, ce qui comprend les frais vétérinaires : identification par puce électronique, primo vacciné, déparasité. Un chèque de caution de 300€ vous sera demandé, qui vous engage à me faire stériliser à partir de mes 6 mois. Le refuge est ouvert tous les jours du lundi au dimanche (sauf les mardis) de 14H à 17H.

About Baya

What life with Baya looks like

Baya is a adult dog waiting at SPA de Périgueux in France.

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 Baya, answered.

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