P'Indiana

Belgian Malinois · Male · Adult · 7 years

P'Indiana has just arrived from the animal shelter, where he spent one year... As an epileptic dog, he will need lifelong medication, and care must be taken to avoid any potential overexcitement in order to keep him safe. He’s a lovely, affectionate, and playful dog. Like all Malinois, he’ll need plenty of physical and mental stimulation, while respecting the limitations imposed by his medical condition. P'Indiana can live with another well-adjusted dog, depending on their compatibility. Due to his epilepsy, he’s eligible for the SOS adoption program.

FR·Show original

P'Indiana vient d'arriver de fourrière, après y avoir passé 1 an... Etant épileptique, il aura besoin d'un traitement à vie, et il faudra faire attention aux potentielles montées en excitation pour le préserver. C'est un chien adorable, câlin et joueur. Comme tout malinois, il aura besoin de se dépenser physiquement et intellectuellement, tout en respectant les limites imposées par ses conditions médicales. P'indiana pourra vivre avec un autre chien bien dans ses pattes, selon les affinités. Du fait de son trouble épileptique, il est éligible au dispositif d'adoption en SOS.

About P'Indiana

What life with P'Indiana looks like

P'Indiana is a adult belgian malinois dog waiting at SPA Plouhinec in Plouhinec.

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 P'Indiana, answered.

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