Floky

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Floky is a young dog with a lack of training. He jumps on people to greet them. He loves children but is rough with them due to his size. Does not know how to interact with other dogs. He is a very kind dog full of love but has had a lack of training in his early life. He is walked 15 minutes a day on a leash. Leash is very short. ...He lacks training and exercise, which means he can destroy when he is alone. Ideal home: A family knowledgeable about the breed with the time to resume his training and take him out enough. Avoid young children as Floky can be rough when playing and has a significant weight. He will need a family in the countryside. BLC works with a questionnaire, a home visit, and an adoption contract. BorderlineCollie is a non-profit organization. In order to continue our work of welcoming and rehabilitating Border Collies, we ask for a contribution to the adoption fees for the dogs we rehome.

Caractère: Floky est un jeune chien avec un manque d’éducation. Il saute sur les gens pour les saluer. Il aime les enfants mais est brusque avec eux a cause de sa taille. Ne connait pas le contact avec les autres chiens. C’est un chien très gentil plein d’amour mais qui a eu un manque d’éducation dans son début de vie. Il est promené 15 min par jour en laisse. Laisse très courte. …Il manque d’éducation et de balade ce qui fait qu’il peut détruire quand il est seul. Le foyer idéal: Une famille connaisseuse de la race ayant le temps de reprendre son éducation et de le sortir assez. On évitera les enfants en bas âge car Floky peut être brute en jouant et a un poids imposant. Il lui faudra une famille à la campagne. BLC travaille avec un questionnaire, une visite à domicile et un contrat d’adoption. BorderlineCollie est une association sans but lucratif. Afin de poursuivre notre travail d'accueil et de réadaptation des Border Collies, nous demandons une participation aux frais d'adoption pour les chiens que nous replaçons.

About Floky

What life with Floky looks like

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

A young 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Floky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Floky?
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 Floky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Floky 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Floky 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 Floky 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 Floky 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.
