Adopt Django

Labrador Retriever · Male · Senior · 11 years

Hello there! My name is Django. It would be great if the planets finally align for me. If I were to list all my qualities, I would start with my unwavering attachment to humans. During walks, I only have eyes for my biped. I hate being left alone in a park, for example. Since I am large and a bit "brutus," it would be best to avoid young children. Well-behaved, fond of treats but also of cuddles, I consider myself a good dog; a big heart to adopt for a lifetime of love.

Salut vous! Je m'appelle Django. Il serait chouette que les planètes s'alignent enfin pour moi. Si je devais vous faire la liste de toutes mes qualités, je commencerais par mon attachement indéfectible à l'homme. Lors des balades, je n'ai d'yeux que pour mon bipède. Je déteste rester seul en parc par exemple. Comme je suis de grande taille et un tantinet "brutus", il serait préférable d'éviter les jeunes enfants. Bien éduqué, gourmand de friandises mais aussi de câlins, je me définis comme un bon toutou ; un gros cœur à adopter pour toute une vie d'affection.

About Django

What life with Django looks like

Django is a large senior labrador retriever dog waiting at S.P.A Vauclusienne in Piégon.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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 Django, answered.

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