Maya

Mixed Breed · Female

I am Maya. I was rescued because I was living in a cramped room with other dogs in poor conditions. Today, I can get along with some of my fellow dogs if introductions go well, but I don't like being bothered. I also get along with cats. With humans, I am very gentle, even the veterinarian confirmed it. I could live with children too. I am also comfortable in the city! As a category dog, a permit to keep me will be required. I've experienced a lot, but not yet the real life in my own home... Will you let me experience it? Share this page on Facebook or X-Twitter Adopt a dog:

Je suis MAYA. On m'a récupérée parce que je vivais enfermée dans une pièce avec d'autres chiens, dans de mauvaises conditions. Alors, aujourd'hui, je peux m'entendre avec certains de mes congénères si les présentations se passent bien, mais je n'aime pas être embêtée. Je m'entends également avec les chats. Avec les humains, je suis très gentille, même le vétérinaire l'a confirmé. Je pourrais d'ailleurs vivre avec des enfants. Je suis également à l'aise en ville! Comme je suis un chien de catégorie, il faudra un permis de détention pour vivre avec moi. J'ai connu beaucoup de choses, mais pas encore la vraie vie dans une maison à moi... Est-ce que vous me la ferez découvrir ? Partager cette page sur facebook ou X-twitter Adopter un chien : MAYA, chien AMERICAN STAFFORDSHIRE TERRIER femelle de 9 ans

About Maya

What life with Maya looks like

Maya 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 Maya, answered.

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