Nina

Female · Young · 3 years

Nina est une survivante. Retrouvée mourante dans la rue, livrée à elle-même et marquée par la maltraitance, elle était en train d’agoniser lorsque nos chemins se sont croisés. Contre toute attente, elle s’est accrochée. Jour après jour, entourée de soins et d’amour, Nina a révélé sa véritable nature : celle d’une chienne extraordinaire. Aujourd’hui, Nina est une chienne pleine de vie. Elle possède cette joie communicative qui touche immédiatement. Joueuse, enthousiaste et fidèle, elle tisse un lien profond avec les humains qui prennent le temps de la connaître. Elle a également un tempérament affirmé, un petit côté meneuse qui témoigne de sa personnalité forte. Très sociable, Nina s’entend merveilleusement bien avec les autres animaux. Elle apprécie la compagnie des chiens, respecte les chats et évolue avec aisance auprès des animaux de la ferme. Intelligente et attentive, elle écoute bien en balade et possède un bon rappel, ce qui rend les moments partagés avec elle particulièrement agréables. Nina aura besoin d’une famille présente et engagée, prête à lui offrir une vie active, avec des promenades régulières et des stimulations physiques et mentales adaptées à son intelligence et à son énergie. En retour, elle offrira une loyauté sans faille, une présence joyeuse et un amour immense. Adopter Nina, c’est offrir une seconde vie à une chienne qui a frôlé la mort, et accueillir une compagne exceptionnelle, prête à écrire le reste de son histoire aux côtés de sa famille pour toujours.

About Nina

What life with Nina looks like

Nina is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at Nos Amis Pour La Vie Europe in France.

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 Nina, answered.

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