Orange

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy

Female, born approximately September 2019 (estimated date), medium to large size (27.3 kg - October 2024). Arrived at the shelter in October 2024. Spayed: yes. Vaccinated: yes. Microchip: yes. Compatible with dogs, cats, and respectful children. Temperament: Orange is timid. She has made progress since her arrival at the foster home, but she still fears handling. She gets along well with other dogs, loves them, and they reassure her a lot. Therefore, she will absolutely need another dog in her household and a perfectly enclosed garden. Orange is not aggressive, even when cornered or forced to be handled. January 2026: Orange is adorable but very complicated. One step forward, ten steps back. As much as she has gotten used to the house and other animals...she does not seek human contact at all. Noises, traffic, a slamming door, etc., do not bother her...but as soon as I try to approach her...everyone takes cover. I get "hell" when I stand up. The same thing happens when I come home from work. She jumps on me, chews my forearms, kisses my hands and cheeks...she settles next to me on the couch...but if I try to pet her...that's it. It is impossible to put a collar on her...and it is impossible to force her, she fights back. I don't want to make her nervous, so...I offer treats from time to time...she is very food-motivated...but for now, it has been unsuccessful. Yesterday, I was able to pet her head on the couch...this morning, she did not want me to touch her and an hour later, she let me pet her again. I have had many dogs before, but never a case like this one...it is me who adapts to her. March 25, 2026: Orange is doing well but still does not like being touched, no change, she is stagnant. October 5, 2025: She relaxes quickly...she has a huge crush on Bingo unfortunately it's not mutual...he panics at her size. He is very timid, he only wants to play but the others are intimidated, which is quite funny. And since Bingo is always acting silly 24/7, she chases him around...and hides behind me. She is like a baby. Orange is very delicate, it's different from Bingo when he arrived...she is very thin so it was easy to attract her...she spent the morning cooking with me and tasting everything. And she is getting comfortable at home. She asks to go out...but refuses the leash, so I am waiting for more trust. October 1, 2025: We took her out of the cage. So, she settled on her mat...and does not leave it anymore...she has been eating and drinking since Monday...and finally did her business yesterday morning...and for now, she is doing everything on her mat...I am constantly cleaning...she lets herself be touched without any problem but it's like with Bingo at the beginning, it's a constraint for her. She does not react to other dogs or cats. We are giving her time. Crazy when she arrived (October 2024): Found wandering. May 2026: Orange was abandoned in the yard of her foster home...a partner rescued her in an emergency. Contact: Spayed: yes. Vaccinated: yes. Microchip: yes. Compatible with dogs, cats, and respectful children.

Sexe : femelle Âge : née environ en septembre 2019 (date estimée approximative) Taille : moyenne à grande (27,3 kg - octobre 2024) Date d'arrivée au refuge : octobre 2024 Stérilisée : oui Vaccinée : oui Pucée : oui Ententes : ok chiens, Ok chats, Ok enfants respectueux Caractère : craintive Evolution : 5 mai 2026 : Orange avait bien progressé dans sa FA, même si elle garde une peur de la manipulation. Elle s'entend parfaitement bien avec les autres chiens, quels qu'ils soient, elle les adore et ils la rassurent beaucoup. Elle aura donc absolument besoin d'un autre chien dans son foyer, et d'un jardin parfaitement clos. Orange n'est absolument pas agressive, même acculée et forcée à la manipulation. Janvier 2026 : Orange est adorable mais très compliquée. 1 pas en avant 10 en arrière. Autant elle s'est habituée à la maison, aux autres animaux....autant elle ne cherche absolument pas le contact avec l'humain. Les bruits, la circulation, une porte qui claque etc ne lui font rien... mais dès que je tente une approche....tous aux abris. Je me lève, j'ai droit à des fêtes d enfer...en rentrant du travail aussi.. elle me saute dessus, me machouille les avant bras, me fait des bisous sur les mains les joues...vient s'installer à côté de moi sur le canapé....mais si j'ai le malheur de vouloir la caresser...c'est fini. Impossible de lui enfiler un collier... et impossible de forcer, elle se rebiffe. Je n'ai pas envie de la braquer donc....je propose de tps en tps.. av une récompense vu qu'elle est gourmande ++ mais échec pr l instant. Hier j'ai pu lui caresser la tête sur le canapé...ce matin, elle ne voulait pas que je la touche et 1h après c'est elle qui me lâche plus. J'en ai eu des chiens mais un cas comme celui là, jamais bref c'est moi qui m adapte à elle. 29 mars 2026 : Orange va bien mais refuse toujours la main, sinon pas de changement, elle stagne 5 octobre 2025 : Elle se détend rapidement.. elle a un gros crush pour Bingo malheureusement ce n est pas réciproque...il panique face à son grand gabarit. un vrai trouillard, elle ne pense qu'à jouer mais les autres sont impressionnés c'est assez drôle. Et comme Bingo fait l andouille H24, un vrai chien de cirque, elle lui court après.. et lui vient se cacher derrière moi. ‍� un vrai bébé. Orange est hyper délicate ça me change. Et pareil que Bingo à son arrivée...elle est très maigre du coup facile de l attirer...elle a passé la matinée à cuisiner avec moi et à goûter à tout. et elle prend ses aises à la maison. Elle réclame à sortir...mais refuse la laisse donc j attends encore. Elle n'a pas encore assez confiance en moi 1er octobre 2025 : On l'a sorti de la cage. Du coup, elle s'est installée sur son matelas...et ne le quitte plus... elle mange et boit depuis lundi...et a enfin fait ses besoins hier matin.. et pour l'instant elle fait tout sur son matelas... je n'arrête pas de laver.. elle se laisse toucher sans souci mais c'est comme pour Bingo au début c'est une contrainte pour elle. Elle ne réagit pas du tout aux autres chiens ou aux chats. On lui laisse le temps Craintive à son arrivée (octobre 2024) Histoire : trouvée errante. Mai 2026 : Orange a été abandonnée dans le jardin de sa FA... un partenaire l'a récupéré en urgence Contact : Stérilisée : oui Vaccinée : oui Pucée : oui Ententes : ok chiens, ok chats, ok enfants Caractère : Janvier 2026 : Orange est adorable mais très compliquée. 1 pas en avant 10 en arrière.

About Orange

What life with Orange looks like

Orange is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Remember Me France in 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 Orange, answered.

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