How do I contact the shelter about KAIRO?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Hermeray handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw KAIRO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt KAIRO if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Hermeray 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 KAIRO 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 KAIRO 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 Hermeray early rather than rehoming privately; they know KAIRO 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.

KAIRO

Labrador Retriever · Male · Young · 3 years

Kairo arrived recently at the shelter following a transfer from the SPA in Pornic, where he originally came from Martinique. We are discovering more and more of his sparkling personality each day. Full of life and curious, he seeks a calming yet dynamic home that can offer him a new life filled with varied activities. Kairo will need to learn to manage his emotions in a kind way, as he probably never had the chance to do so. Unfortunately, he cannot live with young children or with cats. As for his interactions with other dogs, he is sociable if the fellow animal of the same species communicates well and is not too rough. However, he does not seek more interactions than that, so we will prioritize a placement without another dog in his new home. If you are ready to offer him a structured environment and lots of love, come meet Kairo. This animal is not suitable for homes with young children.

Kairo est arrivé au refuge suite à un transfert avec la SPA de Pornic, où il était initialement arrivé de Martinique. Plein de vie et curieux, il recherche un foyer à la fois apaisant et dynamique, capable de lui offrir une nouvelle vie riche en découvertes et en activités variées. Kairo aura besoin d’être accompagné avec bienveillance dans l’apprentissage de la gestion de ses émotions, car il n’a probablement jamais eu l’occasion de le faire. Il ne pourra pas vivre avec de jeunes enfants ni avec des chats. Concernant ses ententes avec les autres chiens, il est sociable lorsque ses congénères communiquent bien et ne sont pas trop brusques. Si vous êtes prêts à lui offrir un cadre structuré, de la patience et beaucoup d’amour, venez rencontrer Kairo.

About KAIRO

What life with KAIRO looks like

KAIRO is a medium-sized young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Hermeray in Hermeray.

An young 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.

Note from the shelter: Needs help learning emotional regulation, requires structured environment

🇫🇷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.
