OKAMI

Mixed Breed · Female · 2 years

OKAMI has known nothing of life and has everything to discover today. She is a very timid dog who is still terrified of humans. Patience and gentleness will therefore be needed to help OKAMI face her fears. The presence of a well-adjusted dog in her home will be a great help. OKAMI will need to live in the countryside without young children.

FR·Show original

Okami n'a rien connu de la vie et a aujourd'hui tout a découvrir. C'est une chienne très craintive qui est encore terrorisée de l'Homme. Il faudra donc s'armer de patience et de douceur pour aider Okami a affronter ses peurs. La présence d'un chien bien dans ses pattes dans son foyer sera d'une grande aide. Okami devra vivre en campagne sans jeunes enfants.

About OKAMI

What life with OKAMI looks like

OKAMI is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Tours (Luynes) in Tours.

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: Very fearful of humans, requires rural setting

🇫🇷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 OKAMI, answered.

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