Loubba

Husky · Male · Adult · 5 years

Loubba, a Husky-mix dog · Male · Born on December 1, 2020 · Arrived at the shelter on December 15, 2021 · Origin: Abandoned. Character: Gentle, fearful of humans, very energetic, needs training. Lifestyle: Must live in a house with a fenced yard. Children-friendly: No young children. Dog-friendly: Situation-dependent. Cat-friendly: No. I’m a Husky born in 2020, and unfortunately, since the day I was born, I’ve known nothing but life in a cage. Mistreated and confined to a bathroom—the only place where I had even a semblance of freedom—I was taken in by the Lorraine SPA following a seizure one year later. My difficult past has made me fearful of humans, and I protect myself from those who try to get too close. It takes time for me to build solid trust before I’ll accept someone. Once that bond is established, though, I reveal a heart of gold and a gentle nature. Those who show me kindness deserve to discover who I really am! I love long walks—even car rides! I enjoy playing and splashing my walkers after a little dip in the water. I’ve made great progress in my training: I can sit and give paw, but there’s still more to learn and refine. However, once the walk is over, I return to my kennel—and that’s when memories resurface. I find myself locked up again, just like in that bathroom where I endured so much horror. Despite the time that’s passed, these memories still haunt me, causing me stress and anxiety, and I feel as if I’m reliving that trauma all over again. More than anything, I long to find a family who will show me the love I’ve never received—a family that understands my traumas. If you’d like to adopt me, please first establish contact with me and earn my trust. It’ll be tough—for both of us—but I’m sure it’ll be worth it!

Loubba Chien croisé Husky · Mâle Né le 01/12/20Arrivé au refuge le 15/12/2021Provenance : Abandon. Caractère : gentil, craintif avec les hommes, très dynamique, à éduquerMode de vie : Maison avec jardin clôturé obligatoireEntente enfants : Pas de jeunes enfantsEntente chiens : Au cas par casEntente chats : Non Je suis un Husky né en 2020, et malheureusement, depuis ma naissance, je n’ai connu que la vie en cage. Maltraité et enfermé dans une salle de bain, le seul endroit où j’avais un semblant de liberté, j’ai été recueilli par la SPA de Lorraine suite à une saisie un an plus tard. Mon passé difficile m’a rendu craintif envers les humains, et je me protège de ceux qui tentent de trop s’approcher de moi. Il me faut du temps pour établir une confiance solide avant d’accepter quelqu’un. Une fois ce lien établi, je révèle un cœur d’or et une nature gentille. Ceux qui me montrent de la gentillesse méritent de découvrir qui je suis réellement ! J’adore les longues balades, même celles en voiture ! J’aime jouer et éclabousser mes promeneurs après un petit tour dans l’eau. J’ai beaucoup progressé dans mon éducation : je sais m’asseoir et donner la patte, mais il reste encore des choses à apprendre et à approfondir. Cependant, une fois la balade terminée, je retourne dans mon box, et c’est là que les souvenirs refont surface. Je me retrouve enfermé, comme dans cette salle de bain où j’ai vécu tant d’horreurs. Malgré le temps qui a passé, ces souvenirs me hantent toujours, me causant stress et anxiété, et j’ai l’impression de revivre ce traumatisme. Je souhaite plus que tout trouver une famille qui me fera connaître l’amour que je n’ai jamais reçu, une famille qui comprendra mes traumatismes. Si vous voulez m’adopter, venez d’abord établir un contact avec moi, gagnez ma confiance. Ce sera difficile, pour vous comme pour moi, mais je suis sûr que ça en vaudra la peine !​ Je suis un Husky né en 2020, et malheureusement, depuis ma naissance, je n’ai connu que la vie en cage.

About Loubba

What life with Loubba looks like

Loubba is a adult husky dog waiting at SPA Lorraine Amance in Amance.

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 Loubba, answered.

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