Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Phoenix – C405 Mâle né le 06/02/19 Le refuge était la dernière chance de Phoenix qui était agressif et risquait l'euthanasie. Il a vu de nombreux éducateurs avec des méthodes parfois assez brutales… De nombreuses expériences négatives dans son passé l'ont rendu très méfiant vis à vis des humains, il a du mal à gérer ses émotions et peut se montrer sur la défensive. Phoenix n'aime pas les manipulations et il faudra composer avec ce facteur. Phoenix est très intelligent et a soif d'apprendre ! Il est très à l'écoute et obéissant, il a un très bon rappel en balade. Lorsqu'il se sent en confiance, il sait se montrer très câlin. Il est également très joueur et adore qu'on lui propose de nouvelles activités. Phoenix ne sera pas clef en main et il faudra de nombreuses rencontres pour qu'elle se révèle être couverte de succès. Nous ne placerons pas Phoenix avec des enfants. Les ententes de Phoenix avec ses congénères et les chats n'ont pas été testées.

About Phoenix

What life with Phoenix looks like

Phoenix is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at SCPA Carcassonne in Carcassonne.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Phoenix, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Phoenix?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SCPA Carcassonne handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Phoenix on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Phoenix if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SCPA Carcassonne 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Phoenix 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 Phoenix 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 SCPA Carcassonne early rather than rehoming privately; they know Phoenix 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.
