Adopt DIABOLO (adoption duo)

American Staffordshire Terrier · Male · Adult · 5 years

Alderaan and Diabolo arrived at our shelter in October 2025 after an investigation of animal cruelty. Very bonded, we are absolutely looking for a duo placement for them. Alderaan is completely lost without her partner. They huddle up against each other every night and follow each other around all day. Diabolo is a mountain of sweetness and gentleness. Alderaan is a bit more shy but just as cuddly. We are looking for a placement without other animals as unfortunately Alderaan does not get along with cats. They can live with respectful children. Diabolo has a heart murmur (currently without treatment). He also seems to be partially deaf. Adopting them means being prepared to receive twice as much love, sweetness, and cuddles!

Alderaan et Diabolo sont arrivés au refuge en octobre 2025 après une enquête maltraitance. Très fusionnels, nous cherchons absolument un placement duo pour eux. Alderaan est complètement perdue sans son copain. Ils se lovent l'un contre l'autre chaque nuit et se suivent partout, toute la journée. Diabolo est une montagne de douceur et de gentillesse. Alderaan est un peu plus timide mais tout aussi câline. Nous cherchons pour eux un placement sans autre animaux car malheureusement Alderaan ne s'entend pas avec les chats. Ils pourront vivre avec des enfants respectueux. Diabolo a un souffle au coeur (sans traitement actuellement). Il semble également malentendant. Les adopter s'est être prêt à recevoir deux fois plus d'amour, de douceur et de câlin !

About DIABOLO (adoption duo)

What life with DIABOLO (adoption duo) looks like

DIABOLO (adoption duo) is a medium-sized adult american staffordshire terrier dog waiting at SPA Rennes in Rennes.

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: Must be adopted as a bonded pair with Alderaan

🇫🇷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 DIABOLO (adoption duo), answered.

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