How do I contact the shelter about Shiva?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Anim'toit handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Shiva on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Shiva if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Anim'toit 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 Shiva 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 Shiva 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 Anim'toit early rather than rehoming privately; they know Shiva 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.

Read original (fr)

Shiva a été utilisée comme chienne reproductrice dans son ancienne vie. Arrivée suite à une fugue, elle n’a pas pu retourner chez son ancien propriétaire. Cette louloute n’aime pas rester enfermée dans son box. Elle sait nous chanter sa tristesse quand elle nous voit nous amuser avec d’autres chiens à travers ses barreaux. Cette staff de 2 ans nous prouve chaque jour que malgré leur stigmatisation, les chiens de cette race peuvent être aussi gentils que n’importe quel autre chien non catégorisé. Shiva ne recherche que de l’amour auprès de nous. Toujours partante pour une balade et pour nous couvrir de léchouilles, vous découvrirez en elle une chienne prête à ouvrir son cœur pour faire partie de votre vie. Elle s’entend très bien avec les autres chiens et a d’ailleurs partagé son box avec deux copains pendant plusieurs semaines. Shiva est une chienne de catégorie 1. Il vous faudra détenir l’attestation d’aptitude des chiens de catégorie. Pour connaître l’ensemble des conditions d’accueil d’un chien de catégorie 1, nous vous invitons à contacter le refuge. Je vous attends au refuge pour une rencontre pleine de tendresse. Ensemble, on pourrait former une belle équipe !

About Shiva

What life with Shiva looks like

Shiva is a young adult american staffordshire terrier dog waiting at Anim'toit in Prinquiau.

An 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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.
