Hugo

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 14 years

À 15 ans, Hugo n’a presque jamais connu l’amour d’un foyer. Ce gentil et doux papi a passé sa vie à l’attache, sans la chaleur ni les petits bonheurs d’une vraie maison. Aujourd’hui, alors qu’il aurait tant mérité de profiter enfin d’une retraite paisible, Hugo souffre de tumeurs inopérables qui ne lui laissent malheureusement pas beaucoup de temps. Nous voulons simplement lui offrir, pour ses derniers moments, tout ce qu’il n’a jamais eu : un panier douillet, des caresses, de la douceur et surtout une famille qui l’aime. Venez rencontrer Hugo. Il n’a peut-être jamais eu beaucoup de chance dans sa vie, mais il peut encore connaître le bonheur.

About Hugo

What life with Hugo looks like

Hugo is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Perpignan in Perpignan.

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 Hugo, answered.

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