REX

German Shepherd · Male · Adult · 5 years

Rex a été abandonné car son ancienne propriétaire a été hospitalisée. Il est gentil avec les gens et les inconnus en général mais il reste quand même un peu craintif au début. Il vivait dans un appartement mais ne sortait pas tous les jours alors il peut encore avoir du mal avec la propreté. C'est un chien plutôt calme et gentil et qui supporte la voiture. Il aura besoin d'une famille qui prendra son temps pour lui redonner confiance. Ses ententes avec les autres animaux sont encore à tester.

About REX

What life with REX looks like

REX is a adult german shepherd dog waiting at Maubert-Fontaine) in Ardennes.

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 REX, answered.

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