Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Descriptif :BLACKIE a été abandonné suite au déménagement de son propriétaire. C’est un chien très actif et joueur. Une fois en confiance, il se montre très proche de son maître. Il ne s’entend pas du tout avec les congénères mâles mais semble bien accepter les femelles. Il a déjà vécu avec un chaton. BLACKIE a des bases d’éducation mais il faudra travailler sur la gestion de la solitude (aboiement, destruction, fugue). Placement impératif sans enfants, en maison bien clôturée.

About BLACKIE

What life with BLACKIE looks like

BLACKIE is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de Lyon et du Sud-Est in France.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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 BLACKIE, answered.

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