Horton

Mixed Breed · Male

Hello, my name is Horton! Where I came from, we were quite a few... We lacked care, attention, and everything... But what would it serve to hold onto bitterness? Since I was rescued by our shelter, I feel good in my paws and know that a new life awaits me. My dream? To discover what it's like to have a home! I'm a very gentle dog who listens carefully to what people say. I love human contact... and also enjoy some peace at times, just like everyone! I get along well with other dogs and don't cause any trouble for the cats. Do you like walks? Well, so do I! Whether in the city or the countryside, I walk calmly. I would be better off with a single person, as I attach myself a lot to my human and tend to want to keep them all to myself! If you came to meet me?

Enchanté, moi c'est HORTON ! Là d'où je viens, nous étions très nombreux... Nous manquions de soins, d'attention, de tout... Mais à quoi servirait d'en garder de l'amertume ? Depuis que j'ai été récupéré par la Fondation, je me sens bien dans mes pattes et je sais qu'une nouvelle vie m'attend. Mon rêve ? Découvrir ce que c'est que d'avoir un chez-soi ! Je suis un chien très gentil, qui écoute sagement ce qu'on lui dit. J'aime le contact humain... et aussi avoir la paix par moments, comme tout le monde ! Je m'entends bien avec les autres chiens et je ne fais pas de mal aux chats. Vous aimez les balades ? Cela tombe bien, moi aussi ! En ville ou à la campagne, je me promène sagement. Je serai mieux avec une personne seule, car je m'attache beaucoup à mon humain et j'ai tendance à vouloir le garder rien que pour moi ! Si vous veniez me rencontrer ?

About Horton

What life with Horton looks like

Horton is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Horton, answered.

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