OSIS

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Already 3 years of shelter for OSIS... A bit wary at first, it will take some patience for her to become familiar with her future adopter. She gets along with male dogs, but will need to be the only pet in the family. Once she feels at ease, she can be playful and affectionate.

About OSIS

What life with OSIS looks like

OSIS is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Albi (Le Garric) in Albi.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Must be only pet in household

🇫🇷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 OSIS, answered.

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