Chipie

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

CHIPIE – Female X BERGER born on 09/08/2018 (estimation) – weighs almost 14kg in FA at SAURIER (63) About CHIPIE: Dogs: okay Cats: okay Children: we are not sure of her reactions Chipie lived in an isolated farm, in semi-liberty, with very few human contacts. After the hospitalization of the person who “took care” of her, she had to be taken in urgently with her puppies, who were only a month old. Today, in safety, Chipie is progressing every day. Despite her past, she is a gentle dog who is gradually beginning to trust humans. Once reassured, she appreciates being petted and even reveals a playful side. Initially wary, she will need a calm, patient, and understanding home to continue evolving serenely. Chipie can live with other dogs, but she will protect her toys and will appreciate balanced and respectful companions. – A fully enclosed garden is essential – Chipie still doesn’t know how to use a leash or go for walks – Potty training is in progress Chipie deserves today to discover the tenderness of a real home and the security of a family life.

CHIPIE – Femelle X BERGER né le 09/08/2018 (estimation) – presque 14kg en FA à SAURIER (63) A propos de CHIPIE : Chiens: ok Chats : ok Enfant : nous ne connaissons pas ces réactions Chipie vivait dans une ferme isolée, en semi-liberté, avec très peu de contacts humains. Suite à l’hospitalisation de la personne qui “s’occupait” d’elle, elle a dû être prise en charge en urgence avec ses chiots âgés d’à peine un mois. Aujourd’hui en sécurité, Chipie progresse chaque jour. Malgré son passé, c’est une chienne douce qui commence peu à peu à faire confiance à l’humain. Une fois rassurée, elle apprécie les caresses et révèle même un côté joueur. Craintive au premier abord, elle aura besoin d’un foyer calme, patient et compréhensif pour continuer à évoluer sereinement. Chipie peut vivre avec d’autres chiens, mais elle protège volontiers ses jouets et appréciera des compagnons équilibrés et respectueux. – Jardin bien clôturé indispensable– Ne connaît pas encore la laisse ni les promenades– La propreté est en bonne voie d’acquisition Chipie mérite aujourd’hui de découvrir enfin la douceur d’un vrai foyer et la sécurité d’une vie de famille.

About Chipie

What life with Chipie looks like

Chipie is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Volcanimo in France.

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 Chipie, answered.

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