Adopt Nougat

Yorkshire Terrier · Male · Senior · 9 years

We received an emergency call from the pound in Roubaix, which had just taken in a small Yorkshire Terrier puppy, 9 years old, in a catastrophic state. I leave it to you to judge from the veterinary report on this dog, named Nougat. Nougat: Entered the pound already identified. 9 years old. Arrived emaciated: 2.200 kg and in very poor condition: Fur matting and severe lice infestation. Teeth: Only a premolar remains. Cardiac murmur. Goose-step gait with hyperextension of the forelimbs + proprioceptive deficit. Possible neurological signs? Likely hip arthritis. Flystrike on the rear end (between the thighs) + between the eyes; We gave him a hygiene trim and bath on May 27, 2026. Otitis externa. Nougat will join us on Saturday for the AG, covoituré by our friend Mary, who will also bring down a small Shih-Tzu, 9 years old, whose mistress is hospitalized and very ill, and can no longer take care of it. Nougat is offered for sponsorship, and once he is in better condition, he will be offered for adoption.

About Nougat

What life with Nougat looks like

Nougat is a senior yorkshire terrier dog waiting at Cani-Seniors in cani seniors.

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 Nougat, answered.

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