TESSY

Belgian Malinois · Female · Adult · 4 years

Tessy est une chienne qui cherche un foyer patient et compréhensif. Elle ne s’attachera pas immédiatement à tout le monde et prendra le temps nécessaire pour créer un véritable lien avec sa nouvelle famille. La vie en refuge et en box est stressante pour elle et ne lui permet pas de se sentir pleinement à l’aise. Elle a besoin d’un environnement calme, où elle pourra reprendre confiance en elle à son rythme. Tessy aura besoin d'un accompagnement pour guider ses réactions. Elle a besoin de patience, d’espace et de repères clairs, mais saura offrir beaucoup d’affection et de fidélité à ceux qui la comprendront et la respecteront. Avec le temps, elle deviendra une compagne loyale et protectrice pour sa famille. Entente chiens : Oui mais ne pourra pas vivre avec ; Entente chats : Non ; Entente enfants : Adolescents

About TESSY

What life with TESSY looks like

TESSY is an adult belgian malinois dog waiting at Jean Leriche) in Moree.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting TESSY, answered.

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