Pimprenelle

Mixed Breed · Female

Pimprenelle is a adorable little dog who just wants to enjoy the small pleasures of life: calm, comfort, and especially the company of her humans. Her story hasn't been easy. Her previous owners abandoned her, injured and neglected, in a veterinary clinic, refusing to take responsibility for her care. It was in this context that the FBB decided to come to her aid, taking her under their wing to give her a second chance. Today, Pimprenelle is sociable and conciliatory: she gets along just as well with cats as with her canine companions. She also walks very well on a leash and loves going for walks, fully enjoying each outing with enthusiasm. But it is especially upon her return, snuggled comfortably beside her family, that Pimprenelle truly reveals herself: a sweet and endearing little dog who aspires to offer and receive tenderness every day, and who deserves today to finally know the stability and love of a real home.

Pimprenelle est une adorable petite chienne qui ne demande qu'à profiter des petits plaisirs de la vie : le calme, le confort, et surtout la compagnie de ses humains. Son histoire n'a pourtant pas été simple. Ses anciens propriétaires l'avaient abandonnée, blessée et mal entretenue, dans une clinique vétérinaire, refusant de prendre en charge les soins dont elle avait besoin. C'est dans ce contexte que la FBB a décidé de lui venir en aide, en la prenant sous son aile pour lui offrir une seconde chance. Aujourd'hui, Pimprenelle se montre sociable et conciliante : elle s'entend aussi bien avec les chats qu'avec ses congénères canins. Elle marche également très bien en laisse et adore partir en balades, profitant pleinement de chaque sortie avec entrain. Mais c'est surtout au retour, blottie confortablement aux côtés des siens, que Pimprenelle se révèle pleinement : une petite chienne douce et attachante, qui n'aspire qu'à offrir et recevoir de la tendresse au quotidien, et qui mérite aujourd'hui de connaître enfin la stabilité et l'amour d'un véritable foyer.

About Pimprenelle

What life with Pimprenelle looks like

Pimprenelle is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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 Pimprenelle, answered.

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