Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 5 years
Flash has not experienced the benefits of human contact. She doesn't know cuddles and the gentleness of a home. It will take her a lot of time to learn to trust. She will not be placed with young children. She gets along well with other cats.

Sturdy plastic carrier — what most shelters require for pickup.
First-week safe space. Shelter dogs settle faster with a crate.
Legally required in most EU countries for transporting dogs.
Dog-specific pheromone diffuser. Worth it for the trip home.
Worth the upgrade — rescues often have joint issues from kennels.
Escape-proof for spooky rescues. Safer than a collar in week one.

FLASH is a small adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Rennes in Rennes.
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.
Note from the shelter: Requires extensive socialization and patience due to lack of human contact
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.
