BLUE

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Blue arrived at the shelter from the pound after being there for several months. Before that, he would have lived in a dark room... Blue has therefore known nothing of life and has everything to discover! Regulating his emotions is very difficult for him. He is wary of strangers and can also be very reactive towards his fellow dogs. Blue will have to live in the countryside in a quiet home, without children or other animals. His future family will have to have experience and be 100% invested for him. A follow-up with a positive education trainer will be highly recommended. Give him a second chance!

Blue nous arrive de fourrière après y être resté plusieurs mois. Avant cela il aurait vécu dans une pièce dans le noir... Blue n'a donc rien connu de la vie et a tout à découvrir ! La régulation des émotions est très difficile pour lui. Il se montre méfiant vis-à-vis des inconnus et peut également se montrer très réactif face à ses congénères. Blue devra vivre en campagne dans un foyer calme, sans enfants ni autres animaux. Sa future famille devra avoir de l'expérience et être investie à 100% pour lui. Un suivi avec un éducateur en méthodes positives sera vivement recommandé. Offrez lui sa seconde chance !

About BLUE

What life with BLUE looks like

BLUE is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Aix-en-Provence in Aix.

A 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting BLUE, answered.

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