THALIA

German Shepherd · Female · Adult · 4 years

Thalia is a lovely mixed-breed shepherd. She gets along with dogs and children, but we don't know yet how she will get along with cats. Affectionate and energetic, she would be a great family dog. She will appreciate long daily walks.

FR·Show original

Thalia est une adorable croisée berger. Elle s'entend avec les chiens et les enfants mais nous ne connaissons pas encore ses ententes avec les chats. Affectueuse et dynamique, c'est une super chienne de famille. Elle appréciera les grandes balades quotidiennes.

About THALIA

What life with THALIA looks like

THALIA is a adult german shepherd dog waiting at SPA Tours (Luynes) in Tours.

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 THALIA, answered.

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