Adopt OLIVER

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy

OLIVER, 4 years old, male golden retriever, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. OLIVER is in foster care in the 77. OLIVER was found wandering on the highway in Lebanon. It seems he had just been abandoned by his "family." He arrived in France on March 26, 2026, and is discovering family life, toys, and walks with great pleasure. OLIVER is a large dog, very affectionate, a bit overbearing (he overflows with love!), and occasionally a little rambunctious! He is clean, walks well and calmly on a leash, and remains on his bed without any issues. He has a very cheerful personality, which needs time to settle and focus on learning. OLIVER being a big eater, he can also be a bit of a food stealer if left unattended. OLIVER is okay with other dogs, not tested with cats, and okay with not-too-young children because he can be a bit rambunctious.

Oliver etant en grand gourmand, il peut également être un peu voleur avec la nourriture si laissée sans surveillance. Oliver est Ok tous chiens, non testé chats, ok enfants pas trop jeunes car fougueux. Oliver est un adorable toutou plein de qualités, mais qui à besoin d&

About OLIVER

What life with OLIVER looks like

OLIVER is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Gamelles Sans Frontière in Île-de-France.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇫🇷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 OLIVER, answered.

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