FLOP

French Bulldog · Male · Young · 2 years

FLOP is a dog who arrived from a pound where he stayed for several weeks. We know nothing about his previous life. What we do know is that he lacked education and socialization. He is very gentle with humans but gets very excited. He does not get along with other animals. Still young, we have no doubt that with some work and an appropriate environment, he will be able to calm down and progress. He may eventually be able to live with teenagers. FLOP is looking for active, present adopters who are ready to share beautiful activities with him!

FR·Show original

Flop est un jeune chien arrivé au refuge après plusieurs semaines passées en fourrière. Nous ne connaissons malheureusement rien de son passé. Ce qui est certain, c’est qu’il a manqué d’éducation et de sociabilisation. Malgré cela, Flop est un chien très gentil avec les humains, même s’il peut rapidement monter en excitation. Il ne s’entend pas avec les autres animaux. Encore jeune, il aura besoin d’adoptants investis, capables de lui offrir un cadre stable, une éducation cohérente et des dépenses adaptées afin de l’aider à s’apaiser et à progresser sereinement. Flop pourrait éventuellement vivre avec des adolescents. Il recherche surtout une famille présente et sportive, prête à partager de belles activités et à construire une vraie complicité avec lui.

About FLOP

What life with FLOP looks like

FLOP is a small young adult french bulldog dog waiting at SPA Rennes in Rennes.

An 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.

Note from the shelter: Requires continued gentle training due to excitement episodes

🇫🇷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 FLOP, answered.

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