Friesen &#8211

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 16 years

Hello, my name is Friesen! At 16 years old, I am a lovable grandpa dog, kind-hearted, affectionate, and always in search of cuddles. Recently, I live in foster care with another dog, and everything is going wonderfully, even when we are alone at home. I have quickly adapted to my new environment: the garden, the bowl, and my basket are no longer mysteries to me! My foster family will tell you that I am a bit... very clingy. I love the company of humans and scratching sessions are clearly my favorite activity. Even though I am a senior, I still have a lot of energy and I am always up for a walk. I love to stretch my legs, discover new places, and go on explorations, always at my own pace of course. Walks at the park are a true joy for me! At home, I am calm and well-behaved. I do not climb on the couch or the stairs, unless given a little pat. I am easy to handle. Despite my advanced age, I am in good shape and currently do not require any special medical care. I still have many beautiful moments to share with a loving family. Today, I dream of a warm, serene, and kind home where I can enjoy my peaceful retirement surrounded by love. And if this little slice of paradise has a garden or an outdoor space, it would be absolute bliss! So, who would like to offer a gentle grandpa like me the peaceful end of life I deserve? If my profile interests you and you would like to meet me, contact the LPA-NF in Lille at [phone number] or at the address which will put you in contact with my foster family!

Bonjour, moi c’est Friesen ! Du haut de mes 16 ans, je suis un adorable papy au grand cœur, doux, affectueux et toujours en quête de câlins. Depuis peu, je vis en famille d’accueil avec un autre chien et tout se passe à merveille, même lorsque nous restons seuls à la maison. Je me suis très vite adapté à mon nouvel environnement : le jardin, la gamelle et mon panier n’ont déjà plus de secrets pour moi ! Ma famille d’accueil vous dira que je suis un peu... beaucoup pot de colle. J’adore la compagnie des humains et les séances de gratouilles sont clairement mon activité préférée. Même si je suis un senior, je garde une belle énergie et je suis toujours partant pour une promenade. J’aime me dégourdir les pattes, découvrir de nouveaux endroits et partir en exploration, toujours à mon rythme bien sûr. Les sorties au parc sont un vrai bonheur pour moi ! À la maison, je suis calme et sage. Je ne monte ni sur le canapé ni dans les escaliers, sauf si l’on me donne un petit coup de patte. Je me laisse manipuler sans aucune difficulté. Malgré mon grand âge, je suis en forme et ne nécessite actuellement aucun soin médical particulier. Il me reste encore de beaux moments à partager auprès d’une famille aimante. Aujourd’hui, je rêve d’un foyer doux, serein et bienveillant où je pourrai profiter paisiblement de ma retraite entouré d’amour. Et si ce petit coin de paradis possédait un jardin ou un extérieur, ce serait le bonheur absolu ! Alors, qui voudra offrir à un gentil papy comme moi la fin de vie que je mérite ? Mon profil vous intéresse et vous souhaitez me rencontrer ? Contactez la LPA-NF de Lille au 03-20-52-52-16 ou à l’adresse qui vous mettrons en contact avec ma famille d’accueil !

About Friesen &#8211

What life with Friesen &#8211 looks like

Friesen &#8211 is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at LPA Nord de la France in Lille.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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 Friesen &#8211, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Friesen &#8211?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. LPA Nord de la France handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Friesen &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Friesen &#8211 if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — LPA Nord de la France 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 Friesen &#8211 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 Friesen &#8211 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 LPA Nord de la France early rather than rehoming privately; they know Friesen &#8211 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.
