Socrate

Boston Terrier · Male · Adult · 5 years

Cet énergique boston terrier de 4ans nous a été confié car sa maîtresse qui se sentait dépassée. SOCRATE c'est tout un personnage: lorsqu'il connait son monde, il est calin, joueur, facétieux et plutot pot de colle. En revanche les inconnus qui entrent sur son territoire n'ont pas la cote. Et il se montre alors très (trop) gardien. Idélament il lui faudrait une personne ou un couple avec une vie calme et routinière et plutot casanier. Socrate ne supporte pas ses congéneres et il devra être le seul chien de la famille.

About Socrate

What life with Socrate looks like

Socrate is an adult boston terrier dog waiting at Refuge Les Amis des Bêtes in 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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Socrate, answered.

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