Floki

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Floki (M) - 4 years - Looking for BLC Adopters Characteristics Date of birth: 4/10/2020 Gender: Male Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: No Disabilities: No Children: from 8 years old Dogs: Yes Cats: to test Other: No Character Floki is a friendly and sociable dog. He likes pats but does not like being hugged too much. He is rather wary of strangers on the street (barking) but accepts them willingly in the house. He gets along well with other dogs and tends to be the follower. With children, we will avoid young ones. He is not comfortable when babies/toddlers move too much. He knows how to stay alone at home without destroying anything but tends to bark. However, when there is someone at home, you won't hear him. On walks, he is used to going out on a leash or lead. Due to a bad experience with a bicycle, he barks at bicycles and scooters when they are too close to him. He likes traveling by car and is not prone to motion sickness. Story Since the arrival of the family's baby six months ago, his owner has had less time for him. He has growled several times at the baby when it was in his mother's arms. However, he does not growl when the baby is in his father's arms. He does not like when the baby moves in its playpen and he is at the edge (in the dog's view). He can also growl. Home sought Floki is an energetic young dog. He will need a present, active family who loves walks. He practiced agility for a few months and enjoyed this activity. We will avoid children under 8 years old. He has lots of love to give! He will appreciate quiet moments with his owners, like naps on the couch. Borderline Collie is a non-profit organization. In order to continue our work of welcoming and retraining Border Collies, we ask for a fee for adoption for the dogs we rehome. Vaccinated against rabies.

Il apprécie les caresses mais n'aime pas lorsqu'on le serre trop. Il est plutôt méfiant envers les inconnus dans la rue (aboiements) mais, dans la maison, il les accepte volontiers. Il s'entend bien avec les autres chiens et a tendance à être le suiveur. Avec les enfants, on évitera ceux en bas âge. Il n'est pas à l'aise lorsque les bébés/petits enfants bougent trop. Il sait rester seul à la maison sans détruire mais il a tendance à aboyer. Par contre, lorsqu'il y a une présence à la maison, on ne l'entend pas. En balade, il est habitué à sortir en laisse ou en longe. Suite à une mauvaise expérience avec un vélo, il aboie sur les vélos et les trottinettes lorsque ceux-ci sont trop près de lui. Il aime voyager en voiture et n'est pas malade. HistoireDepuis l'arrivée du bébé de la famille, il y a 6 mois, sa maîtresse a moins de temps à lui consacrer. Il a grogné, à plusieurs reprises, sur le bébé lorsqu'il était dans les bras de sa maman. Par contre, il ne grogne pas lorsque le bébé est dans les bras de son papa. Il n'aime pas lorsque le bébé bouge dans son parc et qu'il se trouve au bord (à la vue du chien). Il peut aussi grogner. Foyer recherchéFloki est un jeune chien plein d'énergie. Il aura besoin d'une famille présente, sportive et qui aime les balades. Il a pratiqué l'agility durant quelques mois et il appréciait cette activité. On évitera les enfants en-dessous de 8 ans.

About Floki

What life with Floki looks like

Floki is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

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 Floki, answered.

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