JACK

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Jack was entrusted to our shelter because his former owners could no longer care for him. Today, he is looking for a family who will have time to devote to him and with whom he can share both quiet moments at home and beautiful walks. Inside, Jack is a calm dog. Once outside, his athletic side is revealed! He has a lot of energy on walks and can pull on his leash. He will therefore need someone who feels comfortable holding him when he gets excited and who enjoys going out with him regularly. In everyday life, Jack needs presence, attention, and affection. He gets along well with other dogs and children, and could very well join a family that loves spending time outdoors as much as they enjoy quiet moments at home. Would you like to get to know him? Write to us to tell us a bit about yourself and arrange a meeting with Jack.

Jack a été confié à notre refuge parce que ses anciens propriétaires ne pouvaient plus s’occuper de lui. Aujourd’hui, il cherche une famille qui aura du temps à lui consacrer et avec qui il pourra partager aussi bien des moments tranquilles à la maison que de belles balades. À l’intérieur, Jack est un chien calme. Une fois dehors, on découvre son côté sportif ! Il a beaucoup d’énergie en promenade et peut tirer sur sa laisse. Il lui faudra donc quelqu’un qui se sente à l’aise pour le tenir quand il s’enthousiasme et qui prenne plaisir à sortir régulièrement avec lui. Au quotidien, Jack a besoin de présence, d’attention et d’affection. Il s’entend bien avec les autres chiens et avec les enfants, et pourrait tout à fait rejoindre une famille qui aime passer du temps dehors autant qu’elle apprécie les moments au calme à la maison. Vous aimeriez faire sa connaissance ? Écrivez-nous pour nous parler un peu de vous et organiser une rencontre avec Jack.

About JACK

What life with JACK looks like

JACK is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA de Saverne in France.

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, 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 JACK, answered.

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