Kaia

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male · Puppy · 5 months

Kaia is a 5-month-old female who is currently waiting for a family who will take the time to teach her life... slowly, patiently, and with a lot of kindness. Kaia is still very young, quite timid, and everything can worry her: walks, new environments, playgrounds, encounters with other dogs... She still has a lot to discover and learn. Kaia also suffers from severe separation anxiety. She therefore needs a very present family, able to gradually accompany her in her learning and teach her, little by little, that a few moments alone do not mean she is abandoned. We will look for a family for her who can offer her presence, stability, and a secure environment, with very gradual departures from the house. We do not want Kaia to be caged indoors to manage her learning. There are other methods, respectful and adapted to the rhythm of a young dog. The shelter can advise you, guide you towards behaviorists and give you many tips to accompany Kaya in the best way. No apartment for Kaya. She still needs to learn cleanliness and we want her to be able to learn to do her needs calmly in a garden, with patience and rewards. Kaia does not need someone who will ask her to go fast. She needs someone who will say: "We'll take our time. I'm here. You can trust me." We will take the time to choose the family that is best suited to Kaia, one that will accompany her in her first discoveries and allow her to grow serenely. For any adoption request, thank you for contacting us specifying your situation. At the shelter since: 16/09/2026 (Abandon)

À propos À l'adoption Perdus/Trouvés Nous aider Contact > Kaia RECHERCHE SA FAMILLE Kaia, petite femelle d’à peine 5 mois, attend aujourd’hui une famille qui saura prendre le temps de lui apprendre la vie… doucement, patiemment et avec beaucoup de bienveillance. Kaia est encore très jeune, assez craintive, tout peut l’inquiéter : les balades, les nouveaux environnements, les terrains de jeu, les rencontres avec d’autres chiens… Elle a encore énormément de choses à découvrir et à apprendre. Kaia souffre également de fortes angoisses de séparation. Elle a donc besoin d’une famille très présente, capable de l’accompagner progressivement dans ses apprentissages et de lui apprendre, petit à petit, que quelques instants seule ne signifient pas qu’elle est abandonnée. Nous rechercherons pour elle une famille qui pourra lui offrir de la présence, de la stabilité et un cadre sécurisant, avec des départs très progressifs de la maison. Nous ne souhaitons pas que Kaia soit mise en cage à l’intérieur pour gérer ses apprentissages. Il existe d’autres méthodes, respectueuses et adaptées au rythme d’un jeune chien. Le refuge pourra vous conseiller, vous orienter vers des comportementalistes et vous donner de nombreuses astuces pour accompagner Kaya au mieux. Pas d’appartement pour Kaya. Elle doit encore apprendre la propreté et nous souhaitons qu’elle puisse apprendre à faire ses besoins calmement dans un jardin, avec patience et récompenses. Kaia n’a pas besoin de quelqu’un qui lui demandera d’aller vite. Elle a besoin de quelqu’un qui lui dira : « On va prendre le temps. Je suis là. Tu peux avoir confiance. » Nous prendrons le temps de choisir la famille la plus adaptée à Kaia, celle qui saura l’accompagner dans ses premières découvertes et lui permettre de grandir sereinement. ? Pour toute demande d’adoption, merci de nous contacter en précisant votre situation. Au refuge depuis : 16/09/2026( Abandon )

About Kaia

What life with Kaia looks like

Kaia is a large puppy/kitten staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at L'Arche de Noé ASBL - SPA Maisières in Mons.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇧🇪Adopting from Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kaia, answered.

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