Adopt Nino

Male

I am Nino. A large Anglo breed dog, I am mischievous but very friendly. They say I am mischievous because I try to get out of my box at all costs, even when it's time for my meal, which doesn't stop me. I want to run, sniff, dig, be free, the life of a dog you know... I might therefore be prone to escape and you will need a good fence to make sure I don't go off without you! I haven't had the chance to be in the company of another dog yet, so we don't know yet my relations with other animals of the same species or with cats. His adoption is 315 euros, which includes veterinary fees (identification by microchip, first vaccination, neutering, deparasitization). The shelter is open every day from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesdays) from 2 pm to 5 pm.

Moi, c'est Nino. Grand chien de type anglo, je suis coquin mais très sympa. On dit de moi que je suis un coquin car je cherche à sortir de mon box à tout prix, même quand c'est l'heure de la gamelle, cela ne me retient pas. J'ai envie de courir, renifler, farfouiller, être libre, la vie de chien quoi... Je serai donc peut être fugueur et vous aurez besoin d'une bonne clôture pour être certain que je n'aille pas voir ailleurs sans vous ! Je n'ai pas encore eu la chance d'être en compagnie d'un autre chien donc on ne connait pas encore mes ententes avec mes congénères ni avec les chats. Son adoption s'élève à 315€, cela comprend les frais vétérinaires (identification par puce électronique, la primo-vaccination, la castration, le déparasitage). Le refuge est ouvert tous les jours du lundi au dimanche (sauf les mardis) de 14H à 17H.

About Nino

What life with Nino looks like

Nino is a large adult dog waiting at SPA de Périgueux in France.

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.

🇫🇷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 Nino, answered.

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