Belgian Malinois · Female · 2 years
Hi, I'm Lana. I just arrived from a pound in another department. I'm a young female dog, pretty and medium-sized, but be warned: I'm not a toy. I'm a dog with an unknown but not glorious past. I will need calm, patience, and gentleness. I have fears and can react by nipping. I will need positive training and time.

Sturdy plastic carrier — what most shelters require for pickup.
First-week safe space. Shelter dogs settle faster with a crate.
Legally required in most EU countries for transporting dogs.
Dog-specific pheromone diffuser. Worth it for the trip home.
Worth the upgrade — rescues often have joint issues from kennels.
Escape-proof for spooky rescues. Safer than a collar in week one.

LANA is a medium-sized adult belgian malinois dog waiting at SPA Pornic in Pornic.
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.
Note from the shelter: Fear-based reactivity, may nip when scared, requires positive training and patience
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.
