GEPETTO

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Je m'appelle Gepetto, et je cherche ma famille pour la vie ! 🐾 🔹 Sexe : mâle ♂️ 🔹 Naissance estimée : février 2019 🔹 Taille : moyenne (grassouillet) 🔹 Caractère : timide mais doux ‼️ Je me trouve en fourrière en Roumanie, vous ne pourrez pas me rencontrer avant de m'adopter Je m’appelle Geppetto... Je suis enfermé ici depuis tellement d'années, dans une fourrière froide et sordide, où tout semble gris et immobile. Le sol est dur, l’air est lourd, et mon petit box est si étroit qu’il me donne l’impression de disparaître un peu plus chaque jour. Je suis timide… mais doux. Je ne cherche pas à déranger. Je me fais petit, recroquevillé, en attendant que le monde passe enfin la porte de ma cage. J’observe sans comprendre pourquoi le temps est si long ici, pourquoi personne ne vient toujours. Rester prostré ainsi est un calvaire silencieux. Les heures s’étirent, les bruits résonnent, et moi j’espère encore. Un regard. Une main. Un signe. Un miracle peut-être. Est-ce que quelqu’un pourra un jour me sauver… 💔 🔹 Entente ✅ congénères et humains 🔹 Entente ❓ avec les chats (à tester) 🏡 Maison ou appartement, il faudra m'apprendre la vie de famille avec patience, douceur et bienveillance! 🔹 Identifié, vacciné 💉 castré 🔹 Prêt à voyager grâce à mon passeport européen. 🚚 Frais d'adoption : 250€ Adopter, c'est Aimer ! Parce que l'amour n'a pas de prix, mais il a un visage - le mien ! 🐾❤️

About GEPETTO

What life with GEPETTO looks like

GEPETTO is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at L in l arche de kala.

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 GEPETTO, answered.

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