Bobby – SOS

Mixed Breed · Female

Bobby, at the shelter since 32 days I am Bobby, a gentle pup who arrived at the shelter after being found wandering in nature. We do not know my past, which we assume was not very joyful. I am very gentle, just a bit timid at first and with sudden movements, especially since I do not hear very well; I appreciate being approached with gentleness and calm. As soon as I get to know people, I come looking for cuddles with pleasure. Otherwise, I love going for walks but also water (I really enjoy cooling off in the pool when I get too hot), and I am quite greedy. In terms of health, small lumps have been detected on my body, apparently tumors (to be confirmed) that will soon be removed; a veterinary check-up will be done at that time. Deep down, I wish to finish my life in the warmth and love of a home that will finally love me as I deserve, and to respond to my needs for love, walks, cuddles, and good meals.

Bobby, au refuge depuis 32 jours Je m’appelle Bobby, gentil toutou arrivé au refuge car trouvé errant dans la nature, on ne connait donc pas mon passé que l’on suppose peu joyeux. Je suis très gentil, juste un peu craintif au départ et des gestes brusques, surtout que je n’entends pas bien; j’apprécie donc que l’on m’approche avec douceur et calme. Dès que je connais un peu je viens chercher avec plaisir les câlins. Sinon j’adore partir en balade mais aussi l’eau (j’aime beaucoup me rafraichir dans la piscine quand j’ai trop chaud), et je suis assez gourmand. Côté santé, des petites boules ont été détectées sur mon corps, a priori des tumeurs (à confirmer) qui me seront bientôt retirées; un bilan vétérinaire sera refait à ce moment là. Je souhaite du fond du coeur finir ma vie dans la douceur et la chaleur d’un foyer qui saura enfin m’aimer comme je le mérite, et répondre à mes besoins d’amour, de balades, de câlins et de bonnes gamelles. Venez me rencontrer, mes beaux et doux yeux vous feront fondre 🙂

About Bobby – SOS

What life with Bobby – SOS looks like

Bobby – SOS is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Lagord / La Rochelle in Lagord.

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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bobby – SOS, answered.

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