SAINA

Mixed Breed · Female

Au refuge depuis 9 jours Je m’appelle Saina, belle croisée Labrador bringée arrivée au refuge suite à un transfert; j’ai été trouvée errante par la fourrière et malheureusement jamais réclamée. Je suis très gentille, affectueuse, plutôt calme. Arrivée depuis peu je me montre avenante et ravie d’avoir de la visite et de partir en balade pendant lesquelles je suis calme également. Je m’entends a priori avec mes congénères mais je je peux avoir mes têtes (au refuge, à voir en extérieur). Je semble pouvoir m’entendre avec les chats d’après le test réalisé (je ne m’en occupe pas trop). A bientôt pour une visite !

About SAINA

What life with SAINA looks like

SAINA is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Lagord / La Rochelle in Lagord.

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 SAINA, answered.

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