Poupette

Mixed Breed · Female

Poupette is a dog with a measured temperament, simply asking for respect of her adaptation rhythm. She approaches initial contacts with caution and reserve, showing no aggression, and gradually opens up when she evolves in a stable and consistent environment. Of a nature that is independent, she is not spontaneously in search of contact, but is fully receptive when interactions are initiated with calm and without pressure. An orientation towards desensitization to handling and positive reinforcement will allow her to gain confidence and thrive peacefully. With other animals of the same species of similar size, she is relaxed and playful: a beautiful facet of her personality that naturally expresses itself in an appropriate setting.

Poupette est une chienne au tempérament mesuré, qui demande simplement que l'on respecte son rythme d'adaptation. Elle aborde les premiers contacts avec prudence et réserve, sans aucune agressivité, et s'ouvre progressivement dès lors qu'elle évolue dans un environnement stable et cohérent. De nature indépendante, elle n'est pas spontanément en recherche de contact, mais se montre tout à fait réceptive lorsque les interactions sont initiées avec calme et sans pression. Un accompagnement orienté désensibilisation à la manipulation et renforcement positif lui permettra de gagner en confiance et de s'épanouir sereinement. Avec ses congénères de gabarit similaire, elle se montre détendue et joueuse : une belle facette de sa personnalité qui s'exprime naturellement dans un cadre adapté.

About Poupette

What life with Poupette looks like

Poupette 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 Poupette, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Poupette?
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 Poupette on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Poupette 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 Poupette 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 Poupette 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 Poupette 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.
