Sherlock Published on October 28, 2026 at 11:16 💜Animal Protection Association "Au Royaume de l'Espoir CA-LIN" in Dordogne (department 24)💜 Today, we introduce you to Sherlock's profile! A male Hermann's tortoise born on 23/05/2001. He is looking for a family for life đŸ„° ⚠He is identified by electronic chip and we will ask future adopters to consider the procedures for the declaration of detention⚠ Sherlock is an adorable loulou, with a rather lively and very funny temperament on a daily basis! 😉 ⛔Please do not make an adoption request for a land tortoise if you live in an apartment and/or without any outdoor space. Do not hesitate if you have time to take the lead by sending a small message to the team of our association with photos of your installation/future living space, it would save us precious time, especially because we will ask you for it at some point or another! 😇If you have questions about Sherlock, you can contact our association by phone at: 06.28.47.57.22. Do not forget that to save time for our team that has a lot of work, on the phone we will only answer questions from people who have completed the online form in advance. ⛔Having a lot of work, we will ask you to complete our online form before calling us in order to save time for our team. Also take into account the fact that we do not always have time to consult the forms quickly or to contact everyone individually⛔ To apply for his adoption, you will have to complete the form intended for potential future adopters here: This does not commit you to anything towards him, but it is mandatory if you want to be able to adopt at the association 😉 Do not forget that an adoption must be a well-considered act because it commits you until the end of your little scaly companion's life đŸŸ

About Sherlock

What life with Sherlock looks like

Sherlock is a senior dog waiting at Au Royaume CĂąlin in France.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

đŸ‡«đŸ‡·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 Sherlock, answered.

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