Stitch

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Hello everyone, my name is Stitch! I was born in 2021. Here I am again at the shelter for the second time, I was adopted and then found wandering the streets of Marseille one year later. My previous adopter moved abroad and apparently gave me to someone who threw me into the streets of Marseille. Still young, I might need some training to channel my energy: I'm energetic, strong and powerful but I have a good heart! I am lively, cheerful and playful. I will bring some excitement to your life! And also love, because I seek affection from humans. I am less social with other animals of the same species: it's better to avoid male dogs around me, I was okay with female dogs during my first stay at the shelter, I am okay with children 🙂 One last thing: certain conditions will need to be met to adopt me because I am classified as a Category 1 dog. I hope I don't end up with the same fate as some of the shelter's dogs who have been there for years... Can I count on you?

Bonjour tout le monde, je m’appelle Stitch ! Je suis né en 2021. Me revoilà au refuge pour la seconde fois, j'ai été adopté, puis retrouvé errant 1 an plus tard dans les rues de Marseille. Mon ancien adoptant a déménagé à l'étranger et m'a à priori donné à quelqu'un qui m'a jeté dans les rues de Marseille. Encore jeune, j’aurai peut-être besoin d’éducation pour me canaliser : je suis tonique, costaud et puissant mais j’ai un bon fond ! Je suis d’un tempérament éveillé, gai et joueur. J’apporterai de l’animation dans votre vie ! Ainsi que de l’amour, car je recherche l’affection des humains. Je suis moins sociable avec mes congénères : mieux vaut éviter les chiens mâles dans mon entourage, j'étais ok femelle à mon premier passage sur le refuge, je suis ok enfants 🙂 Une dernière chose : il faudra remplir certaines conditions pour m’adopter car je suis classé dans les chiens de catégorie 1. J’espère ne pas connaître le même sort que certains du refuge qui sont là depuis des années… Je peux compter sur vous ?

About Stitch

What life with Stitch looks like

Stitch is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Salon-de-Provence in Salon-de-Provence.

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 Stitch, answered.

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