BILBO

American Bully · Male · Young · 3 years

Bilbo came to us from the pound, so we don't know his past. What we can tell you about him is that he's a dog who is bursting with energy! With Bilbo, it's impossible to get bored: he loves to move, discover and fully enjoy every moment. He will need an active family, ready to offer him physical and mental outlets as well as positive education to help him fully flourish. Outdoors, Bilbo is attentive to humans, he doesn't bark at other dogs even if he's attracted to them. He is able to cross paths with them calmly. He doesn't particularly care about passers-by, joggers or children who may play/shout. He doesn't seem interested in horses or donkeys, but his relationships with other animals (dogs/cats and others) are yet to be tested.

Bilbo nous vient de fourrière, nous ne connaissons donc pas son passé. Ce que l’on peut vous dire de lui, c’est que c’est un chien qui déborde d’énergie ! Avec Bilbo, impossible de s’ennuyer : il aime bouger, découvrir et profiter pleinement de chaque instant. Il aura besoin d’une famille active, prête à lui offrir des dépenses physiques et mentales adaptées ainsi qu’une éducation positive pour l’aider à s’épanouir pleinement. En extérieur Bilbo est à l'écoute de l'humain, il n'aboie pas sur les autres chiens même s'il est attiré par eux. Il est en capacité de les croiser de façon calme. Il ne s'occupe pas spécialement ni des passants, ni des joggeurs ni des enfants qui peuvent jouer/crier. Il ne semble pas intéresser par les chevaux, et les ânes mais ses ententes avec les autres animaux (chiens/chats et autres) restent encore à tester.

About BILBO

What life with BILBO looks like

BILBO is a young adult american bully dog waiting at SPA La Roche-sur-Yon in Roche Sur Yon.

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 BILBO, answered.

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