OURSON

Bichon Frisé · Male · Adult · 8 years

Ourson comes from Martinique. He’s an adorable little fellow—energetic, lively, and mischievous. Ourson has everything to learn, so we’ll need to continue his education and help him discover life in a foster home. He’s not used to being around other dogs yet, but he’ll quickly learn how to behave around them. Very cuddly, cheerful, and affectionate, Ourson will make a wonderful companion for any family ready to offer him stability, love, kindness, and a variety of activities.

Ourson vient de Martinique. C'est un adorable loulou, dynamique et espiègle. Ourson a tout à apprendre, il faudra poursuivre son éducation et lui faire découvrir la vie en foyer. Il n'est pas habitué à côtoyer ses congénères, mais apprendra vite comment se comporter avec eux. Très câlin, joyeux et affectueux, Ourson fera un super compagnon pour n'importe quel foyer prêt à lui offrir stabilité, amour, bienveillance et activités variées.

About OURSON

What life with OURSON looks like

OURSON is a adult bichon frisé dog waiting at SPA Troyes in Troyes.

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 OURSON, answered.

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