Adopt Cassia

Female · Adult · 4 years

Cassia is a very curious and dynamic dog. She can be a bit reserved at first when she doesn't know someone; once she feels comfortable, she becomes quite close to humans. She tolerates other dogs of the same species on walks if they are not too pushy and if introductions are done properly. But we should avoid cohabitation with another dog. She will need a stable and consistent living environment with adopters willing to invest in her education, as she can be a bit reactive to unknown elements. A patient and understanding family will be needed to help her gain confidence. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children.

Cassia est une chienne très curieuse, et dynamique. Plutôt sur la réserve de prime abord quand elle ne connaît pas ; une fois en confiance elle se révèle proche de l'humain. Elle tolère ses congénères en balade si ils ne sont pas trop insistant et que les présentations sont bien faites. Mais nous éviterons la cohabitation avec un autre chien. Elle aura besoin d'un cadre de vie stable et cohérent avec des adoptants prêts à s'investir dans son éducation car elle peut se montrer un peu réactive face aux éléments inconnus qui se présentent à elle. Il faudra une famille patiente et bienveillante pour la mettre en confiance. Cassia pourra vivre avec de grands enfants respectueux, elle pourra aussi partager sa vie avec des chats Venez rencontrer la belle Cassia

About Cassia

What life with Cassia looks like

Cassia is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at SPA Cabourg in Cabourg.

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.

Note from the shelter: Can be reactive to unknown elements, needs consistent training and patient family

🇫🇷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 Cassia, answered.

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