Roxane

Labrador Retriever · Female · Young · 2 years

Roxane is a young Labrador mix with a beautiful black coat and an elegant appearance. Roxane arrived at the shelter after her owners left for abroad, and she has basic training that will need to be continued with kindness. She is energetic and affectionate, but can be a bit shy at first. Once she trusts you, she quickly relaxes and eagerly seeks out cuddles. We are looking for a dynamic and consistent family for Roxane who can provide a stable environment where she can thrive and become a wonderful companion.

About Roxane

What life with Roxane looks like

Roxane is a medium-sized young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Le refuge du Penthièvre et du Méné in France.

A 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roxane, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Roxane?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Le refuge du Penthièvre et du Méné handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roxane on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Roxane if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Le refuge du Penthièvre et du Méné 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Roxane 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 Roxane 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 Le refuge du Penthièvre et du Méné early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roxane 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.
