Adopt Lucky

Mixed Breed · Male

LUCKY is a dog recently arrived from Romania, still deeply marked by his past. Very timid, he explores his new environment with caution and sensitivity. He does not pull on the leash and walks calmly by his human's side, but any interaction still worries him. The presence of other dogs or poultry revives his fears and puts him at ease. Lucky will need committed, patient, and very gentle adopters willing to give him the time to open up at his own pace. A calm and secure living environment will be essential to help him gain confidence and gradually reveal the tender and endearing dog that he is.

LUCKY est un chien récemment arrivé de Roumanie, encore profondément marqué par son passé. Très timide, il découvre son nouvel environnement avec prudence et sensibilité. Il ne tire pas en laisse et marche sagement aux côtés de son humain, mais toute interaction l'inquiète encore. La présence d'autres chiens ou de volailles ravive ses peurs et le met mal à l'aise. Lucky aura besoin d'adoptants engagés, patients et d'une grande douceur, prêts à lui laisser le temps de s'ouvrir à son rythme. Un cadre de vie calme et sécurisant sera essentiel pour l'aider à prendre confiance et à révéler, petit à petit, le chien tendre et attachant qu'il est.

About Lucky

What life with Lucky looks like

Lucky is a small adult mixed breed 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 Lucky, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lucky?
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 Lucky on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lucky 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 Lucky 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 Lucky 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 Lucky 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.
