MAU

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Mau est un jeune chien d'un an qui a déjà traversé énormément d’épreuves pour son âge… Retrouvé tout petit, errant et squelettique en Polynésie française, Mau survivait comme il pouvait. Une voyageuse française l’a remarqué pendant son séjour et nous a demandé de l’aider à le rapatrier afin de lui offrir une vraie vie, loin de la rue et de la survie. Après plusieurs mois dans sa première famille, Mau s’est révélé être un loulou extrêmement attachant… mais aussi trop brusque pour le vieux chien du foyer. Nous lui avons alors trouvé une nouvelle famille, avec l’espoir que cette fois serait la bonne. Mais malheureusement, ce fut encore un échec avec les chiens de la famille. jamais en lien avec les humains… Mau est un chien qui n’a probablement pas été sevré correctement. Il n’a pas appris les codes canins comme les autres chiens. Il déborde d’énergie, veut jouer sans arrêt, ne sait pas toujours se canaliser et peut vite devenir “trop” avec ses congénères. Et pourtant… derrièr

About MAU

What life with MAU looks like

MAU is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Association Plum in plum.

An young 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 MAU, answered.

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