Lilou

Border Collie · Female · Senior · 9 years

Très douce et discrète, adorable avec chiens et chats. Timide au début mais elle se rassure vite. Elle appréciera les promenades. De nature calme, elle aboie très peu. Elle a sans doute vécu en maison car elle se montre très propre en intérieur et ne détruit rien. La première étape est de remplir le questionnaire :) Pour chaque adoption, nous demandons: Photocopie de votre carte d’identité et Photocopie de votre justificatif de domicile.Tous nos chiens sont: Identifiés par puce électronique, Vaccinés (y compris rage), Vermifugés et déparasités. Ils possèdent leur passeport européen et un bilan de santé détaillé par le vétérinaire. Les chiens adultes sont également stérilisés et castrés. Les frais d’adoption sont en fonction des frais engagés pour chaque chien. Pour déposer une demande d’adoption, veuillez compléter le formulaire à votre disposition Nous vous invitons à compléter le formulaire Word et à le renvoyer par mail à cette adresse : afin que nous puissions traiter votre demande

About Lilou

What life with Lilou looks like

Lilou is a medium-sized senior border collie dog waiting at 4 Pattes Sans Frontieres in France.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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 Lilou, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lilou?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. 4 Pattes Sans Frontieres handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lilou on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lilou if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — 4 Pattes Sans Frontieres 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 Lilou 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 Lilou 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 4 Pattes Sans Frontieres early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lilou 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.
