MADELEINE

Female

La belle MADELEINE a été trouvée errante, cette petite X Berger est une usine à câlins... mais niveau éducation, le compteur est à zéro ! C'est un diamant brut livré sans mode d'emploi, mais avec l'option "pot de colle" intégrée. Elle est d'une gentillesse absolue, mais son cerveau de génie tourne à 200 à l'heure. Avis aux experts : ne vous fiez pas à sa bouille d'ange ! Nous recherchons des adoptants ayant une solide expérience de la race (ou chiens de Berger de travail similaires). À cet âge, tout est à faire et il ne faudra pas louper le coche de l'adolescence. Si vous maîtrisez le langage "regard de feu et besoin de bosser", que vous avez de la patience et des baskets neuves, MADELEINE est prête à devenir la chienne parfaite de votre vie. Au boulot !

About MADELEINE

What life with MADELEINE looks like

MADELEINE is a adult dog waiting at SPA Le Mans (Yvré-L'Évêque).

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 MADELEINE, answered.

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