BLUE

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Son histoire Blue a été « oublié » lors du déménagement de ses propriétaires, dans le jardin, avec sa copine Maïa. Ce sont les voisins qui les ont nourris avant qu’ils nous soient amenés. Malgré cette trahison sans nom, Blue n’en veut pas du tout aux humains dont il cherche le contact. C’est un chien sympa et équilibré, sociable avec ses congénères. Il a intégré gentiment le groupe des randonnées. Il sait remettre parfois en place les arrogants! Il a vécu avec des chats : il faudra faire des essais si une cohabitation se profile. Blue ne tire pas trop en balade mais au départ et dans certains contextes, il reste un chien costaud et il faut pouvoir le retenir. Son éducation reste rudimentaire mais il peut rester calme sans détruire ni aboyer outre mesure et, entre deux parties de fausse bagarre avec sa copine, il apprécie les siestes au soleil. Il ne faut pas se fier à l’aspect agité qu’il montre dans son parc envers ses voisins : c’est le fameux effet grillage! Il a vécu en famille avec des enfants jeunes : il a donc besoin d’une vie de chien de maison, non de chenil ou de garde. C’est un chien affectueux qui mérite de connaître des humains de confiance cette fois. Blue s’entend très bien avec sa « sœur » dont il est assez dépendant, avec qui il joue beaucoup : il serait fabuleux de pouvoir les faire adopter ensemble mais le principal est qu’il retrouve une famille, avec ou sans Maïa et réciproquement.

About BLUE

What life with BLUE looks like

BLUE is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de l in France.

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 BLUE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about BLUE?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA de l 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 de l 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 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 de l 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
