Adopt CANDY CHAO

Shih Tzu · Female · Adult · 6 years

Candy and her mother arrived at the shelter following the death of their owner. These little dogs are completely lost and are looking for a family that can adopt them together. The mother and daughter lived in an apartment with access to a garden and could handle several hours of absence. They are still learning about cleanliness. They can live with respectful children. They do not know other dogs or cats; tests can be carried out at the shelter. They will be adoptable after their visit to our veterinarian, but you can already come meet this loving pair.

About CANDY CHAO

What life with CANDY CHAO looks like

CANDY CHAO is a adult shih tzu dog waiting at SPA Chamarande in Chamarande.

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 CANDY CHAO, answered.

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