Adopt CRAPULE

Male · Adult · 6 years

CRAPULE, Anglo-French from 2020, is an ex-hound dog who had a... let's say, eventful career. During a hunt, he was "forgotten" with a certain collective talent by his previous owners (who suddenly developed a very selective memory). Result: a month of total independence in the forest, with a fox trap locked on his leg, and the loss of a small piece of it - enough to say he survived an episode worthy of an adventure series. Despite all that, CRAPULE is a very kind dog, who accepts everything with good will, even if the world seems a little overwhelming to him. He remains sensitive and a bit timid. He is a touching companion, with a real ability to bond, who will need a calm, patient home, and above all a perfectly enclosed yard for his safety. After his forest adventures, he clearly deserves a well-earned couch life (and without surprise traps)!

CRAPULE, Anglo Français de 2020, est un ancien chien de meute de chasse à cour qui a connu une carrière… disons, mouvementée. Lors d’une chasse, il a été “oublié” avec un certain talent collectif de ses anciens détenteurs (qui ont soudainement développé une mémoire très sélective). Résultat : un mois de vie en totale autonomie en forêt, avec un piège à renard bloqué sur la patte, et la perte d’un petit morceau de celle-ci — autant dire qu’il a survécu à un épisode digne d’une série d’aventure. Malgré tout ça CRAPULE est un chien d’une grande gentillesse, qui accepte tout avec bonne volonté, même si le monde lui semble parfois encore un peu impressionnant. Il reste sensible et un peu craintif. C’est un compagnon touchant, avec une vraie capacité d’attachement, qui aura besoin d’un foyer calme, patient, et surtout d’un terrain parfaitement clos pour sa sécurité. Après ses aventures forestières, il mérite clairement une vie de canapé bien méritée (et sans pièges surprises) !

About CRAPULE

What life with CRAPULE looks like

CRAPULE is a adult 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 CRAPULE, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about CRAPULE?
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 CRAPULE on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt CRAPULE 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 CRAPULE 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 CRAPULE 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 CRAPULE 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.
