Hiro

Golden Retriever · Male · Young · 3 years

Hiro Croisé Golden mâle, né le 20/09/23. Hiro est malheureusement revenu au refuge suite à une morsure après adoption. Il ne pourra donc pas être placé dans un foyer avec des enfants et nous souhaitons qu'il trouve une famille expérimentée qui pourra le comprendre. Une fois qu’il connaît les personnes et qu’il leur accorde sa confiance, Hiro est vraiment adorable. Au refuge, c’est un chien très agréable, dynamique et plein de vie. Il est agréable en promenade, mais aussi toujours partant pour une partie de jeu ou un bon moment de câlins. Hiro mérite aujourd’hui de rencontrer la personne qui saura prendre le temps de le découvrir et lui offrir une belle seconde chance.

About Hiro

What life with Hiro looks like

Hiro is a large young adult golden retriever dog waiting at SCPA Carcassonne in Carcassonne.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Hiro, answered.

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