Je m'appelle Dirkie, et je cherche ma famille pour la vie ! 🐾 🔹 Sexe : mâle ♂️ 🔹 Naissance estimée : novembre 2025 🔹 Taille approximative adulte : moyenne (15 kg en juillet 2026) ⚠️ Attention, ma taille adulte est une pure estimation. 🔹 Caractère : sociable et calme ‼️ Je me trouve en fourrière en Roumanie, vous ne pourrez pas me rencontrer avant de m'adopter Je m'appelle Dirkie... Je suis un jeune chien sociable et calme, et pourtant personne n'est encore venu me chercher. Chaque jour, je remue la queue quand quelqu'un passe devant mon box. J'espère toujours qu'un regard va s'arrêter sur moi, qu'une main va se tendre, qu'une famille va enfin me choisir... J'aimerais tant courir, jouer, partir en promenade et partager ma joie de vivre avec quelqu'un. J'ai tellement d'amour à donner, mais mes journées s'écoulent derrière les barreaux de la fourrière, où mes rêves semblent parfois bien loin. Mon plus grand souhait n'est pas compliqué : avoir une famille à aimer, un foyer où rentrer et ne plus jamais me sentir seul. En attendant, je continue d'espérer qu'un jour, quelqu'un verra en moi bien plus qu'un chien derrière des barreaux... 🔹 Entente ✅ congénères et humains 🔹 Entente ❓ avec les chats (à tester) 🏡 Maison ou appartement, il faudra m'apprendre la vie de famille avec patience, douceur et bienveillance! 🔹 Identifié, vacciné 💉 castré 🔹 Prêt à voyager grâce à mon passeport européen. 🚚 Frais d'adoption : 250€ Adopter, c'est Aimer ! Parce que l'amour n'a pas de prix,

About DIRKIE

What life with DIRKIE looks like

DIRKIE is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at L in l arche de kala.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇫🇷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 DIRKIE, answered.

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