MAX VAA

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Le handsome Max arrives from a transfer from another shelter. He was abandoned at the shelter because his previous owner could no longer take care of him. Unfortunately, he still carries some scars from his past. He will therefore require a lot of patience and gentleness. His future adopters will need to come to the shelter several times to meet him. He is a very gentle and obedient dog once he feels comfortable. He loves playtime. He must live in a house with a well-fenced yard. He should not live with children or other animals. If Max touches you, don't hesitate, come meet him soon!

Le beau Max nous arrive de transfert d'un autre refuge. Il a été abandonné en refuge car son ancien propriétaire ne pouvait plus s'occuper de lui. Il garde malheureusement des séquelles de sa vie passée. Il lui faudra donc beaucoup de patience et de douceur. Ses futurs adoptants devront venir à plusieurs reprises au refuge pour le rencontrer. C'est un chien très gentil et obéissant, une fois en confiance. Il adore les parties de jeux. Il devra vivre en maison avec jardin bien clôturé. Il ne devra pas vivre avec des enfants ni avec d'autres animaux. Si Max vous touche, n'hésitez plus, venez vite le rencontrer !

About MAX VAA

What life with MAX VAA looks like

MAX VAA is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Vaux-le-Pénil in Vaux-le-Pénil.

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 MAX VAA, answered.

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