Adopt Juan

Male

Past: Found wandering in Guadeloupe very thin My character: active; friendly with people; playful; easygoing; happy; Zebulon; affectionate; patient; starts to become resilient and depressed at the shelter; likes quiet Size: 25.30 kg Shelter grooming: does not like it but is well-behaved Good day to everyone! I am the very fast Juan. Dynamic, cheerful and happy, the volunteers say that I am a real Zebulon. I am a very smart dog but also mischievous and playful - I need a family that will know how to let me burn off energy because I must be well-exercised to thrive! Life in a cage is therefore a difficult stage for me because being confined stresses me, for those who love the outdoors and activities you will understand that living in a cage is a daily misfortune. I am also a dog close to humans who likes interaction, a common sport would then be super cute to share as many moments as possible together. A small defect? I admit I am guilty, I am a real glutton! You can easily lead me by the nose by promising me a good cake 🙂 So if my description appeals to you and you recognize yourself in the family that would suit me, come quickly to take me out of my loneliness and confinement so that finally I can live in harmony with loving people!

Passé: Trouvé errant en Guadeloupe très maigre Mon caractère : actif ; sociable humain ; joueur ; facile ; heureux ; zebulon ; câlin ; patient ; commence à se résilier et déprimé au refuge ; aime le calme Gabarit : 25.30 kg Toilettage refuge : aime pas mais sage Buenas dias a todos ! Je suis le muy rápido Juan. Dynamique, enjoué et joyeux, les bénévoles disent de moi que je suis un vrai Zébulon. Je suis un toutou très malin mais aussi espiègle et joueur – j’ai besoin d’une famille qui saura me dépenser car je dois être bien défoulé pour m’épanouir ! La vie en box est donc une étape difficile pour moi car l’enfermement me stresse, pour les passionnés de plein air et d’activités vous comprendrez bien que de vivre en cage est un malheur quotidien. Je suis également un loulou proche de l’humain qui aime l’interaction, un sport commun serait alors hyper chouette pour partager le plus de moment possible ensemble. Un petit défaut ? J’avoue que je plaide coupable je suis un vrai gourmand ! Vous pourrez facilement me mener par le bout de la truffe en me promettant un bon gateau 🙂 Alors si ma description vous plait et que vous vous reconnaissez dans la famille qui me conviendrait, venez vite me sortir de ma solitude et l’enfermement pour qu’enfin je puisse vivre en harmonie auprès de personnes aimantes ! Tout dans le bisous

About Juan

What life with Juan looks like

Juan is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at SPA de l 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 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 Juan, answered.

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