Brick

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Brick, male Belgian Malinois born on 24.04.22, arrived abandoned because his owner no longer wanted to take care of him. Brick is a bit shy at first, who will need calm and patient people to tame and gain his trust. Once comfortable, he is a very affectionate and playful dog. He can live with calm children. In a house, he is clean and well-behaved when alone. A fenced yard will be imperative. OK with dogs. The presence of a female companion would be a plus to play and keep him company during your absences. He does not like cats and chickens at all. Identified 250 268 780 343 732, vaccinated, dewormed, spayed. In foster care so contact only by email at . Describe in detail your environment (fenced or not garden, children, other animals, time of absence...) and give your address and a phone number where you can be reached.

Brick, mâle x malinois né le 24.04.22, est arrivé en abandon car son propriétaire ne souhaitait plus s'en occuper. Et tant mieux pour lui car il n'a pas eu une vie facile. Mais il a énormément progressé en plusieurs mois dans sa famille d'accueil. Brick est un chien un peu timide au premier abord, qui aura besoin de personnes calmes et patientes pour l'apprivoiser et le mettre en confiance. Une fois à l'aise, c'est un chien très câlin et joueur. Il adore l'eau et aime se baigner à la plage. Il pourra vivre avec des enfants s'ils sont calmes et savent respecter ses peurs. Son environnement idéal serait une maison en campagne car il n'est pas du tout à l'aise en ville. Le terrain devra impérativement être bien clos. Il est propre et sage en l'absence. Ok chiens. La présence d'un copain serait d'ailleurs un plus pour jouer et lui tenir compagnie pendant vos absences. Il n'aime pas du tout les chats et les poules. Identifié 250 268 780 343 732, vacciné, déparasité, stérilisé. En famille d'accueil donc contact uniquement par mail à . Décrivez au maximum votre environnement (jardin clos ou non, enfants, autres animaux, temps d'absence...) et donnez votre adresse et un téléphone auquel vous joindre.

About Brick

What life with Brick looks like

Brick is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Refuge Animalier du Pays de Landerneau in France.

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 Brick, answered.

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