BLUE

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Blue comes to us from the pound, we know nothing about his life before. He may get along with some of his own kind outdoors (to be seen on a case-by-case basis for placement with another dog). Blue does not get along with cats. He is a medium-sized dog and rather pleasant on walks. He is a sweetheart with humans and can live with children without problems. This lovable dog can live in a house or apartment (without stairs). Blue seems to be able to tolerate a few hours of absence wisely. He is in SOS because he has hip dysplasia and arthritis. A happy little clown to meet!

FR·Show original

Blue nous arrive de la fourrière, nous ne connaissons rien de sa vie d'avant. Il peut s'entendre avec certains congénères en extérieur (à voir au cas par cas pour un placement avec un autre chien). Blue ne s'entend pas avec les chats. C'est un chien de gabarit moyen et plutôt agréable en balade. C'est un amour avec l'humaine et il pourra vivre avec des enfants sans soucis. Cet amour de chien pourra vivre en maison ou en appartement (sans escaliers). Blue semble pouvoir supporter quelques heures d'absence sagement. Il est en SOS car il est dysplasique des hanches et de l'arthrose. Un joyeux petit clown à venir rencontrer !

About BLUE

What life with BLUE looks like

BLUE is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Rennes in Rennes.

An 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 Rennes 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 Rennes 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 Rennes 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.
