BIC

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Do you want love? With Bic, you'll get plenty! A true little ball of energy and cuddle machine. Like a perfect 'little' dog, he already has some basic training and learns very quickly. His 'flaw'? BIC has trouble managing his excitement because he loves humans too much, so you'll need patience to teach him to calm down more quickly and especially teach him that doing nothing is okay too! We prefer placement in a house, without children. Bic could handle a few hours of absence provided he gets beautiful daily walks and has something to chew available. Behavioral evaluation 17/08/2023 scored 1/4.

FR·Show original

Bic est arrivé au refuge suite à un transfert de la SPA d’Hermeray. Après plus de 4 longues années passées en refuge, il est grand temps que ce formidable loulou découvre enfin le bonheur d’un foyer. Bic est un chien dynamique qui aura besoin de se dépenser chaque jour, aussi bien physiquement que mentalement. Joueur, intelligent et obéissant, il apprécie apprendre et partager des activités avec son humain. Très enthousiaste, il peut parfois monter en excitation. Il aura donc besoin d’une famille patiente, prête à l’accompagner avec bienveillance afin de lui apprendre à mieux gérer ses émotions. Très gourmand et incroyablement câlin, Bic adore passer du temps avec les personnes qu’il aime. Il pourra vivre avec de grands enfants, respectueux de ses besoins. En revanche, Bic ne pourra pas vivre avec des chats ni avec des chiens mâles. Une cohabitation avec une femelle pourra être envisagée après une rencontre et des tests au cas par cas.

About BIC

What life with BIC looks like

BIC is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Amiens) in Poulainville.

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.

Note from the shelter: Difficulty managing excitement, needs patience for calming training

🇫🇷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 BIC, answered.

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