SUNRISE

Mixed Breed · Male

Sunrise's past is unknown, but we know how he almost ended up: after having his ears and tail cut off, he was thrown into a container as if he was worth no more than trash. The truck came to collect the piles of garbage bags, and only a small movement perceived by the camera allowed him to be located. The truck had to be completely emptied to allow his rescue. Sunrise is a survivor. But the story doesn't end there! Because Sunrise was microchipped. In the name of a man against whom legal recourse is possible. A man who tried to recover him. Fortunately, it was not granted and Sunrise is now safe at the shelter, far from his torturer. And it is from now on that his life will begin. Sunrise is a quiet and super sociable dog with other dogs. He loves having company and cuddles and feeling loved. Despite the horrors he has experienced, Sunrise never stopped trusting humans and loving them with all his heart. Now he just needs a family that shows him he's right to continue trusting and brings him all the love he never received.

FR·Show original

On ne connait pas la vie passée de Sunrise mais nous savons comment elle a failli terminer: Après lui avoir coupé les oreilles et la queue, il a été jeté dans un contener comme si il n'avait pas plus de valeur qu'un déchet. Le camion est venu prendre en charge les montagne de sacs poubelles entassés, et seul un petit mouvement perçu par la camera du camion a permis de le localiser. Le camion a dû ^tre entièrement vidé pour permettre son sauvetage. Sunrise est un survivant. Mais l'histoire ne s'arrête pas là! Car Sunrise était pucé. Au nom d'un homme contre lequel les recours judiciaires sont possibles. Un homme qui a tenté de le récupérer. Heureusement, cela ne lui a pas été accordé et Sunrise est maintenant en sécurité au refuge, loin de son tortionnaire. Et c'est à partir de maintenant que va commencer sa vie. Sunrise est un chien tranquille et super sociable avec les autres chiens. Il adore avoir de la compagnie et des caresses et se sentir aimé. Malgré les horreurs qu'il a vécues, Sunrise n'a jamais arrêté de faire confiance aux humains et de les aimer de tout son coeur. Maintenant il lui manque juste une famille qui lui montre qu'il a raison de continuer à avoir confiance et qui lui apporte tout l'amour qu'il n'a jamais reçu.

About SUNRISE

What life with SUNRISE looks like

SUNRISE is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Association Kahlua in association kahlua.

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 SUNRISE, answered.

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