Adopt COOPER

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Hello there, my name is COOPER! I arrived at our shelter following a surrender during an investigation by our D.E. Upon my arrival, I was in a state of emaciation and had skin issues. Today, thanks to the care and attention from the team, I am much better and have regained my strength. I am a friendly, approachable dog who is very close to humans. I love contact, gentleness, and the presence of people around me. Now, I dream of a calm home where I can enjoy a real, comfortable life, with a nice spot on the couch... and most importantly, lots of love. I will also need regular beautiful walks to feel settled and continue to thrive. So... and could this sweet home be yours?

Hello la compagnie, moi c’est COOPER ! Je suis arrivé au refuge suite à une cession dans le cadre d’une enquête de nos D.E. À mon arrivée, j’étais en état de maigreur et je présentais des problèmes de peau. Aujourd’hui, grâce aux soins et à l’attention de l’équipe, je vais beaucoup mieux et j’ai repris des forces. Je suis un chien sympa, avenant et très proche de l’humain. J’aime le contact, la douceur et la présence des personnes autour de moi. Je rêve désormais d’un foyer calme, où je pourrai profiter d’une vraie vie confortable, avec une belle place dans le salon… et surtout beaucoup d’amour. Il me faudra aussi de belles balades régulières pour être bien dans mes pattes et continuer à m’épanouir. Alors… et si ce doux foyer, c’était le vôtre ?

About COOPER

What life with COOPER looks like

COOPER is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Le Mans (Yvré-L'Évêque).

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 COOPER, answered.

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