NETA

German Shepherd · Female · Adult · 4 years

NETA was entrusted to us by the investigators, as she had been left outside constantly and had an inappropriate diet... She is a rather shy dog, but she quickly offers her trust in exchange for a few treats. Once reassured, NETA shows herself to be close to her master, protective, and affectionate in her own way: no cuddles for now, but she loves to peck. She even starts to make play calls. NETA is a very touching dog who deserves a chance and to find a family that will teach her everything, as she knows nothing but the chain that kept her imprisoned...

FR·Show original

Neta nous a été confiée par les délégués-enquêteurs, car elle était attachée dehors en permanence et avait une alimentation inadaptée... C'est une chienne un peu timide, mais elle offre vite sa confiance en échange de quelques friandises. Une fois rassurée, Neta se montre proche de son maître, protectrice, et affectueuse à sa manière : pas question de faire des câlins pour le moment, mais elle aime beaucoup faire des bisous. Elle commence même à faire des appels au jeu. Neta est une chienne très touchante qui mérite d'avoir sa chance et de trouver une famille qui lui apprendra tout, car elle ne connait rien d'autre que la chaîne qui la maintenait prisonnière...

About NETA

What life with NETA looks like

NETA is a large adult german shepherd dog waiting at Maubert-Fontaine) in Ardennes.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Rescue dog from neglect situation, needs patient family to learn basic socialization and trust

🇫🇷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 NETA, answered.

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