How do I contact the shelter about Preston?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Action 4 Pets handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Preston on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Preston if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Action 4 Pets 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 Preston 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 Preston 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 Action 4 Pets early rather than rehoming privately; they know Preston 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.

Preston

Cane Corso · Male · Young · 2 years

Type/Breed: Cane corso Age: 2 years (born on 06/10/2019) Chip number: 250269608323973 History: The owner has a pathology that requires hospitalization and bed rest. She can no longer take Preston out and he needs exercise. Character/Description: Preston is a large breed (about 50kg) but can be gentle, he is a very calm dog indoors. Protective, he is intelligent and close to his owner. He is housebroken and knows basic obedience (sit, lie down, paw), he also knows "gently". He is a patient dog who sits when his harness is put on and knows how to wait patiently for the go to eat. He is a big eater which makes learning tricks easy! Preston knows how to be alone (without some crying which calms down in a few minutes). On walks he does not pull except to say hello. Like any respectable cane, he can be cautious and reactive with people and other dogs but has never gone as far as biting. He would be happiest in a house with at least a small garden and long walks during the day. Still young, he is very playful but still has trouble focusing when playing and can sometimes bite without intending to harm, so a bit of care is needed around children. He is confident but can sometimes feel overwhelmed by people, noise and large vehicles like trucks. OK Dogs: YES if calm. Adoption fees: 267 euros (membership included) Adoption outside of France is entirely possible Neutered:

Type/Race : Cane corso Âge : 2 ans (née le 06/10/2019) N° de puce : 250269608323973 Histoire : La propriétaire a une pathologie qui nécessite hospitalisations et alitement. Elle ne peut plus sortir Preston et il a besoin d’exercice. Caractère/Description : Preston est un gros gabarit (environ 50kg) mais il sait être doux, c’est un chien très calme en intérieur. Protecteur, il est intelligent et est proche de son maître. Il est propre et connaît les basiques de l’obéissance (assis, coucher, la patte), il connaît aussi “doucement”. C’est un chien patient qui s’assoie quand on lui met son harnais et sait attendre patiemment qu’on lui donne le go pour sa gamelle. C’est un gros gourmand ce qui rend facile l’apprentissage de tours ! Preston sait rester seul (non sans quelques pleurs qui se calment en quelques minutes). En balade il ne tire pas sauf pour aller dire bonjour. Comme tout cane qui se respecte, il peut être méfiants et réactif avec les humains et les chiens mais n’est jamais allé jusqu’à mordre. Il serait le plus heureux dans une maison avec au moins un petit jardin et de grandes balades la journée. Encore jeune, il est très joueur mais a encore du mal à faire attention lorsqu’il joue et peut parfois mettre les dents sans chercher à faire mal, il faut faire un peu attention autour des enfants. Il est confiant mais parfois il peut se sentir débordé entre les gens, le bruit et les gros véhicules style camion. Ok Chiens : OUI si cool. Frais d’adoption : 267 euros (adhésion comprise) L’adoption hors de France est tout à fait possible Stérilisé : Programmé

About Preston

What life with Preston looks like

Preston is a young adult cane corso dog waiting at Action 4 Pets in France.

An 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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.
