Adopt KOBA

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 4 months

KOBA is a very young puppy, just turning 4 months old, who arrived at our shelter following a transfer from a pound. So young and already facing life in a shelter, this little bundle of joy deserves to find a warm home where he can grow surrounded by love and kindness. Like any puppy, KOBA still has a lot to learn. His education is just beginning, and he will need a patient, invested family ready to guide him through the discovery of the world. Having known almost nothing until now, every experience will be a new adventure for him. Curious, full of potential, and with his whole life ahead, KOBA now awaits adopters ready to offer him the stability, familiar surroundings, and affection he needs to become a balanced and thriving companion.

Koba est un tout jeune chiot d'à peine 4 mois, arrivé au refuge suite à un transfert de fourrière. Si jeune et déjà confronté à la vie en refuge, ce petit loulou mérite de trouver rapidement un foyer chaleureux où il pourra grandir entouré d'amour et de bienveillance. Comme tout chiot, Koba a encore tout à apprendre. Son éducation est à construire et il aura besoin d'une famille patiente, investie et prête à l'accompagner dans la découverte du monde. N'ayant quasiment rien connu jusqu'à présent, chaque expérience sera pour lui une nouvelle aventure. Curieux, plein de potentiel et avec toute une vie devant lui, Koba attend désormais des adoptants prêts à lui offrir la stabilité, les repères et l'affection dont il a besoin pour devenir un compagnon équilibré et épanoui.

About KOBA

What life with KOBA looks like

KOBA is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Laon in Laon.

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 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 KOBA, answered.

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