Adopt SAVITA

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Sativa 1 year old, shih tzu, 4kg, female neutered, identified, vaccinated, and dewormed. In foster care in Coye-la-Forêt. No carpooling, you will have to come and get her in person. Sativa is an adorable little energetic and enthusiastic dog. She was the victim of a "heartfelt purchase," but her humans quickly lost interest in her. She is not grudgy and loves everyone, and she will be the first to ask for hugs! She loves all the dogs she meets on walks and is happy to approach humans as well. Sativa does have her own little personality: if it rains, she will refuse to go outside! She is okay with all dogs, okay with respectful children, not tested with cats, but she seems well-mannered and very willing to play with everyone. Her potty training is in place, but leash walking needs some work.

Pas de co-voiturage il faudra impérativement venir la chercher sur place.Sativa est une adorable petite chienne pleine d'énergie et d'enthousiasme. Elle a été la victime d'un achat “coup de coeur” mais ses humains se sont très vite désintéressés d'elle. Pas rancunière, elle aime tout le monde, et sera la 1ere à demander des câlins !Elle aime tous les chiens croisés en ballade, et va volontiers vers les humains également. Sativa a tout de même son petit caractère : s'il pleut, elle refusera de mettre le nez dehors ! Elle est ok tous chiens, ok enfants respectueux, non testée chat, mais elle semble de bonne composition et très volontaire à jouer avec tout le monde.La propreté est acquise, mais la marche en laisse est à travailler. C est une petite demoiselle très sage, intelligente et obéissante qui fera le bonheur d&

About SAVITA

What life with SAVITA looks like

SAVITA is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Gamelles Sans Frontière in Île-de-France.

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 SAVITA, answered.

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