Dumbo

Mixed Breed · Unknown

This lovely mixed-breed German Shepherd was renamed Dumbo, we'll let you guess why Dumbo came to the pound, his birth date was estimated to be 2023. At two years old, he is still very young. Dumbo is a real sweetheart! He gets along with other male or female dogs and with the staff at the shelter. He sometimes shows resource guarding at the food bowl, which resulted in a small incident with a staff member who stepped in to separate the fight. He was put on treatment to calm this issue, and the treatment can be stopped after seeing an animal behaviorist once he is well settled in his new home. Still, we have to admit, the stress and overcrowding of his current living situation don't help him to be completely relaxed. He is very playful! Energetic on walks, but with regular outings he will be much calmer. You're dreaming of a gentle dog who loves everyone and is easy to live with, so Dumbo is made for you!

Ce beau toutou croisé Berger Hollandais a été rebaptisé Dumbo, on vous laisse deviner pourquoi Dumbo est arrivé par la fourrière, sa date de naissance a été estimée à 2023. Âgé de 2 ans il est encore toute jeune. Dumbo est un vrai gentil ! Il s'entend avec les autres chiens mâles ou femelles et avec les tatas du refuge, il fait de la protection de ressource à la gamelle ce qui a valu un petit incident avec une tata qui s'est mis au milieu pour séparer la bagarre, il a été mis sous traitement afin de calmer ce soucis, le traitement pourra être arrêté après avoir vu un vétérinaire comportementaliste une fois bien posé dans ma nouvelle maison. Il faut quand même se l'avouer, le stress et la promiscuité de son lieu de vie actuel n'aide pas à être totalement détendu. Il est très joueur ! Energique en balade , mais avec des sorties régulières il sera beaucoup plus calme. Vous rêvez d'un gentil chien, qui aime tout le monde et facile à vivre, alors Dumbo est fait pour vous !

About Dumbo

What life with Dumbo looks like

Dumbo is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Salon-de-Provence in Salon-de-Provence.

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 Dumbo, answered.

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