Adopt Koby

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male

Koby has unfortunately not yet had the chance to experience a loving home. Found abandoned in an apartment, without water or food... a difficult trial from which he is slowly recovering. He finally hopes to find a present and attentive family to offer him the life he truly deserves. He is a full of energy dog who will need space to burn it off, ideally with a large garden. His joy of life is sometimes overwhelming, which is why it would be best to avoid a home with very young children. Koby could easily share his life with another calm and patient dog, and he also gets along well with cats. He is also an intelligent and curious dog who needs stimulation, both physical and mental. With gentle and consistent training, he will take great pleasure in learning, exploring, playing, walking, and of course, sharing good times with his family. Koby is just waiting for someone to offer him a new life. Maybe with you? Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a dog:

KOBY n'a malheureusement pas encore connu la chance d'avoir un vrai foyer aimant. Il a été retrouvé abandonné dans un appartement, sans eau ni nourriture... une épreuve difficile dont il se remet peu à peu. Il espère enfin trouver une famille présente et attentionnée pour lui offrir la vie qu'il mérite réellement. C'est un chien plein d'énergie, qui aura besoin d'espace pour se dépenser, idéalement avec un grand jardin. Sa joie de vivre est parfois débordante, c'est pourquoi il vaudra mieux éviter un foyer avec de très jeunes enfants. KOBY pourrait tout à fait partager sa vie avec un autre chien calme et patient, et il s'entend également bien avec les chats. C'est aussi un chien intelligent et curieux, qui a besoin de stimulation, autant physique que mentale. Avec une éducation douce et cohérente, il prendra beaucoup de plaisir à apprendre, explorer, jouer, se promener& et bien sûr partager de bons moments avec sa famille. KOBY n'attend plus qu'une chose: quelqu'un prêt à lui offrir une nouvelle vie. Peut-être avec vous ?

About Koby

What life with Koby looks like

Koby is a small adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Koby, answered.

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