How do I contact the shelter about BOWIE?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Border Line Collie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw BOWIE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt BOWIE if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Border Line Collie 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 BOWIE 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 BOWIE 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 Border Line Collie early rather than rehoming privately; they know BOWIE 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.

BOWIE

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

BOWIE (M) 3 years - adoption via BorderLineCollie Characteristics Birth date: 3/11/2020 Gender: Male Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: No Disabilities: No Child friendly: No Dog friendly: Yes Cat friendly: Yes Other friendly: No Character Bowie is a well-mannered dog, pleasant to have at home. He learns quickly and listens fairly well, without being a slave to obedience. Despite all the obedience training, it is still difficult to get enough recall from Bowie for him to be reliable enough to be let off-leash during walks. Bowie willingly seeks his owner's company and wants to do something with him. However, he does not like being touched much. Sometimes, Bowie pushes his head under your hand for a quick caress, but he decides himself when it's enough. For grooming or a visit to the veterinarian, it is better to put a muzzle on him. Bowie is clean and can be left alone in a cage or free for a few hours. Story Following a divorce, Bowie no longer receives the attention he needs.

BOWIE (M) 3 ans – adoption via BorderLineCollie Caractéristiques Date de naissance: 3/11/2020 Sexe: Mâle Inscrit au LOF/LOSH/ISDS: Non Handicaps: Non Entente enfants: Non Entente chiens: Oui Entente chats: Oui Entente autre: Non CaractèreBowie est un chien bien élevé, agréable à avoir dans la maison. Il apprend vite et écoute assez bien, sans pour autant être esclave de l'obéissance. Malgré tout le dressage, il reste difficile d'obtenir de Bowie un rappel suffisant pour qu'il soit assez fiable pour être lâché en promenade. Bowie recherche volontiers la compagnie de son maître et veut faire quelque chose avec lui. Cependant, il n'aime pas beaucoup être touché. Parfois, Bowie pousse sa tête sous votre main pour une caresse rapide, mais il veut décider lui-même quand c'est assez. Pour l'entretien de son poil ou une visite chez le vétérinaire, il est préférable de lui mettre une muselière. Bowie est propre et peut rester seul dans une cage ou en liberté pendant quelques heures. Histoireà la suite d'un divorce, Bowie ne reçoit plus l'attention dont il a besoin.

About BOWIE

What life with BOWIE looks like

BOWIE is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

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.
