How do I contact the shelter about Memphis?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. S.P.A Vauclusienne handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Memphis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Memphis if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — S.P.A Vauclusienne 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 Memphis 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 Memphis 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 S.P.A Vauclusienne early rather than rehoming privately; they know Memphis 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.

Memphis

Pointer · Male · Young · 2 years

Often said to be great athletes, incredible companions, and true glue of the family, Memphis seems to take these qualities very seriously. A handsome boy with a gentle gaze, Memphis is waiting today for someone to finally offer him what he deserves: a family for life. Now, you should be warned: like any respectable German Shepherd, he might consider your personal space a purely theoretical concept. If you sit down, he will come to say hello. If you stand up, he will accompany you. If you open the refrigerator… he will already be there to supervise the operations. As for his compatibility: his relationships with other dogs are still under evaluation. His compatibility with cats is unknown at this point. Memphis presents a slight muscle atrophy in his left hind leg, related to an old hip condition. This is part of his history and does not prevent him from enjoying life, taking walks, and sharing beautiful moments with the humans he loves. Behind his elegance and the air of a great athlete lies a particularly endearing dog who hopes to finally find his place in a loving home. Memphis is just waiting for someone to look at him and say, "That's him."

FR·Show original

On dit souvent que les Braques Allemands sont de grands sportifs, d’incroyables compagnons et de véritables pots de colle… Memphis semble avoir pris ces qualités très au sérieux. Beau garçon au regard plein de douceur, Memphis attend aujourd’hui que quelqu’un lui offre enfin ce qu’il mérite : une famille pour la vie. Bon, il faut quand même vous prévenir : comme tout Braque Allemand qui se respecte, il est possible qu’il considère votre espace personnel comme une notion purement théorique. Si vous vous asseyez, il viendra dire bonjour. Si vous vous levez, il vous accompagnera. Si vous ouvrez le réfrigérateur… il sera déjà là pour superviser les opérations. Concernant ses ententes : Ses relations avec les autres chiens sont encore en cours d’évaluation. Son entente avec les chats est inconnue à ce jour. Memphis présente une légère fonte musculaire au niveau de la patte arrière gauche, liée à une ancienne atteinte du bassin. Cela fait partie de son histoire et ne l’empêche pas de profiter de la vie, de se promener et de partager de beaux moments avec les humains qu’il aime. Memphis n’attend plus qu’une chose : que quelqu’un pose les yeux sur lui et se dise « c’est lui ».

About Memphis

What life with Memphis looks like

Memphis is a young adult pointer dog waiting at S.P.A Vauclusienne in Piégon.

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.
