OLYMPE

Labrador Retriever · Female · Adult · 6 years

Olympe arrived with her brother Phenix on 16/06/2026. She is used to living indoors, not destructive and easily handled. She knows basic commands: sit, lie down, stay still. She waits for permission to go to the bowl during meals. She is accustomed to living with cats and children. With her small explorer side, she will need a suitable and secure environment to avoid escaping "Give her a second chance and OLYMPE will give you all her life."

Elle connaît bien les ordres de base : assis, couché, pas bougé. Elle sait attendre l’autorisation pour aller à la gamelle au moment du repas. Elle est habituée à vivre auprès des chats et des enfants. Avec son petit côté explorateur, il lui faudra un environnement adapté et sécurisé pour éviter toute escapade « Offrez-lui une seconde chance et OLYMPE vous donnera toute sa vie. »

About OLYMPE

What life with OLYMPE looks like

OLYMPE is a adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA Poitiers in Poitiers.

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.

🇫🇷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 OLYMPE, answered.

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