Adopt EDGAR

Male · Adult · 4 years

EDGAR is a little guy who hasn't experienced family life in his past. For this reason, it would be best if he had a life in the countryside or a small town with a well-fenced yard. He can be a bit reserved when he doesn't know someone but once he feels at ease, he's a very funny and affectionate dog! He is extremely sociable with other animals of the same species and can share his life with another companion.

Read original (fr)

Edgar est un loulou qui n'a pas connu la vie en famille dans sa vie passée. De ce fait, il sera préférable qu'il ai une vie en campagne ou petite ville avec un terrain bien clôturé. Il peut se montrer un peu réservé quand il ne connait pas mais une fois en confiance c'est un chien très rigolo et câlin ! Il est extrêmement sociable avec ses congénères et pourra partager sa vie avec un autre compagnon. Il n’attend plus que la douceur d’un foyer

About EDGAR

What life with EDGAR looks like

EDGAR is a adult dog waiting at SPA Tours (Luynes) in Tours.

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 EDGAR, answered.

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