Dory

Mixed Breed · Female

Dory is a small dog who can be a bit shy with people she doesn't know. But once she feels safe, she becomes very affectionate and craves human contact. She arrived at our shelter with other animals of the same species and gets along well with them, so she can live with another dog in her future family. Dory is looking for a calm home with adopters who are gentle and patient, as she still has a lot to discover and learn. Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter to Adopt a Dog:

DORY est une petite chienne un peu craintive avec les personnes qu'elle ne connaît pas. Mais une fois en confiance, elle devient très câline et demande du contact avec l'humain. Arrivée au refuge avec des congénères, elle s'entend bien avec eux et pourra vivre avec un autre chien au sein de sa future famille. DORY recherche un foyer calme et des adoptants doux et patients car elle a encore tout à découvrir et à apprendre.

About Dory

What life with Dory looks like

Dory is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Dory, answered.

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