Adopt BLACKY CHAO

Male · Young · 1 year

Blacky arrived from Martinique. Injured, he had to be amputated of one of his legs. Blacky is an extremely fearful dog who remains prostrated in his corner without going to make contact with humans. It will take a lot of patience for him to open up. We are looking for a home with a very well-fenced exterior adjacent to the living space, away from the city center with another dog and without young children. Blacky does not walk on a leash and panics as soon as someone approaches him. Blacky has been broken by life and is seeking stability and security with kind, patient humans and dogs. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children.

Blacky est arrivé de Martinique. Accidenté, il a dû être amputé d'une de ses pattes. Blacky est un chien extrêment craintif, qui reste prostré dans son coin sans aller au contact avec l'humain. Il faudra beaucoup de patience pour qu'il se dévoile. Nous cherchons un foyer avec un extérieur très bien clôturé attenant au logement, hors pleine ville avec un autre chien et sans enfants en bas âge. Il ne marche pas en laisse et panique dès qu'on s'approche de lui. Blacky a été brisé par la vie et cherche des repères et de la sécurité auprès d'humains et de chiens bienveillants et patients.

About BLACKY CHAO

What life with BLACKY CHAO looks like

BLACKY CHAO is a young adult dog waiting at SPA Chamarande in Chamarande.

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 BLACKY CHAO, answered.

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