Noisette

Australian Shepherd · Female · Senior · 9 years

I am Noisette. I am looking for a family who can offer me a warm and safe home. I am okay with children and cats. I also have a small quirk: I am incontinent, so I will need a family that is understanding, patient, and willing to take care of me. Despite everything, I am ready to start a new life and I hope with all my heart to find my family for life soon.

Moi c’est Noisette. Je cherche une famille qui pourra m’offrir un foyer chaleureux et sécurisant. Je suis OK avec les enfants et les chats . J’ai aussi une petite particularité : je suis incontinente, j’aurai donc besoin d’une famille compréhensive, patiente et prête à prendre soin de moi. Malgré tout, je suis prête à commencer une nouvelle vie et j’espère de tout cœur trouver rapidement ma famille pour la vie.

About Noisette

What life with Noisette looks like

Noisette is a senior australian shepherd dog waiting at SPA de Besançon in France.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇫🇷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 Noisette, answered.

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