NOZ

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

NOZ arrived at our shelter following an investigation of neglect. At the shelter, she is in constant hyper-vigilance, which stress prevents her from regaining weight, so she is quite thin at the moment. She will need genuine attention and good living conditions to reach her ideal weight. She is looking for a life in the countryside, with plenty of walks to help her burn off energy and express her full vocal potential. She can be around other dogs, but she may come across as a bit too rough for some, so cohabitation in a household will need to be studied on a case-by-case basis. NOZ has never experienced indoor life, so patience and gradual introduction will be necessary. She will need a home with access to the outdoors and a well-fenced yard.

Noz est arrivée au refuge suite à une enquête pour négligence.Au refuge, elle est en hypervigilance permanente,ce stress l’empêche de reprendre du poids, elle est donc assez maigre à l’heure actuelle. Il lui faudra une véritable attention et de bonnes conditions de vie pour qu’elle puisse atteindre son poids de forme. Elle cherche une vie à la campagne, avec des balades pour qu’elle se dépense suffisamment,et exprimer tout son potentiel de vocalise. elle peut côtoyer d’autres chiens, mais peut se montrer un peu trop brute pour certains, la cohabitation en maison sera donc à étudier au cas par cas.Noz n’a jamais connu la vie en intérieur, il faudra être patient et lui faire découvrir petit à petit.Il lui faudra une maison avec accès à l’extérieur et un jardin bien clôturé.

About NOZ

What life with NOZ looks like

NOZ is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Aix-en-Provence in Aix.

An 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.

Note from the shelter: Hypervigilant due to past neglect, underweight, needs patient rehabilitation

🇫🇷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 NOZ, answered.

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