Tayco

Male · Young · 3 years

Tayco is a rather stressed little Spitz in his kennel, and he really opens up once he's out of the shelter! He has a few basics of training, he pays attention to his handler, doesn't pull on walks, and enjoys them calmly. Once he gets to know you a little better, Tayco becomes very affectionate and looks for cuddles! He is still a bit rough in play, so he will need to be taught to be gentler. Very small children should be avoided, to rule out any risk of accidents! His compatibility with other dogs still needs to be confirmed, and it can be improved by continuing the training classes he is already attending!

FR·Show original

Tayco est un loulou assez stressé dans son box et qui se dévoile une fois sorti du refuge ! Il a quelques bases d'éducation, il est à l'écoute de son binome, ne tire pas en balade et profite de celle-ci tranquillement. Quand il vous connait un peu plus, Tayco devient très affectueux et recherche les caresses ! Il reste quand même un peu brute dans le jeu et on devra lui apprendre à se montrer plus doux. On évitera les enfants trop petits pour ne pas risquer un accident ! Son entente avec les congénères reste à confirmer, et pourra être améliorée en continuant les cours d'éducation qu'il suit déjà !

About Tayco

What life with Tayco looks like

Tayco is a young adult dog waiting at APAGI in Le Versoud.

A 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, and shelters often cover sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and a passport. Confirm with the shelter what is included. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tayco, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tayco?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. APAGI handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tayco on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tayco if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask APAGI whether they will for Tayco, what they require (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 Tayco already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: APAGI lists Tayco as neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by APAGI, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Tayco isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask APAGI about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tayco 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.
