HAB

Beagle · Male · Senior · 10 years

Hab, 10 years old, has also lived with nearly 70 dogs in deplorable conditions. More friendly than the others, he quickly becomes endearing and is a real little rascal! He still keeps the traces of his past and will have to discover family life little by little. He will have to live in a house, with another dog. OK dogs. At his age, Hab deserves to finally know the gentleness, comfort, and love of a real home.

À son âge, Hab mérite enfin de connaître la douceur, le confort et l’amour d’un vrai foyer

About HAB

What life with HAB looks like

HAB is a senior beagle dog waiting at SPA Cholet in Cholet.

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, and shelters often cover sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and a passport. Confirm with the shelter what is included. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting HAB, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about HAB?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. SPA Cholet handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw HAB on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt HAB if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask SPA Cholet whether they will for HAB, what they require (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 HAB already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for HAB. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by SPA Cholet, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if HAB isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask SPA Cholet about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know HAB 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.
