PIMOUSSE

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

My name is Pimousse, and I'm looking for my family for life! 🐾 🔹 Sex: male ♂️ 🔹 Estimated birth: April 2023 🔹 Approximate adult size: medium ⚠️ Please note, my adult size is a pure estimate. 🔹 Temperament: shy, but not aggressive, I let myself be petted ‼️ I am currently in a pound in Romania, so you won't be able to meet me before adopting me 🐾 What if, this time, someone chose to save me? 🐾 My name is Pimousse, I'm a sweet male of about 25 kg… and since I was very young I have lived locked behind the bars of a pound. Years of waiting. Watching the others leave. Hoping that one day someone will stop in front of my kennel and say, "That's him." 💔 I'm a shy dog, especially at first. I need time, gentleness, and patience to earn my trust. But I am not aggressive. On the contrary, when I feel safe, I can be petted and enjoy these little moments of tenderness. ❤️ I also get along very well with other dogs 🐶, which could be a lovely starting point to help me gain confidence. I don't ask for much… A calm home. A person who will respect my pace. Patience. Love. I have spent my whole life waiting behind a gate. I would simply like to know what it feels like to have a bed, a house, walks, caresses… and someone to love. 🥹❤️ I am still here. I haven't given up hope. So, will you be…

À regarder les autres partir. À espérer qu’un jour, quelqu’un s’arrête devant mon box et se dise : « C’est lui. » 💔Je suis un chien timide, surtout au début. J’ai besoin de temps, de douceur et de patience pour accorder ma confiance. Mais je ne suis pas agressif. Au contraire, lorsque je me sens en sécurité, je peux être caressé et apprécier ces petits moments de tendresse. ❤️Je m’entends également très bien avec les autres chiens 🐶, ce qui pourrait être un joli point de départ pour m’aider à prendre confiance.Je ne demande pas grand-chose…Un foyer calme.Une personne qui saura respecter mon rythme.De la patience.De l’amour.J’ai passé toute ma vie à attendre derrière une grille.Je voudrais simplement savoir ce que ça fait d’avoir un panier, une maison, des promenades, des caresses… et quelqu’un à aimer. 🥹❤️Je suis encore là.Je n’ai pas abandonné l’espoir.Alors, est-ce que tu seras

About PIMOUSSE

What life with PIMOUSSE looks like

PIMOUSSE is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at L in l arche de kala.

A young 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 PIMOUSSE, answered.

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