Adopt THE ROCK

Rottweiler · Male · Young · 3 years

After 6 long months in the pound following his illegal arrival on the territory, The Roc finally has the chance to find his forever family. He is a powerful Rottweiler, but adorable with humans and protective. We don't know his interactions with other animals (dog, cat), and tests can be conducted at the shelter. Without more information about his past, general work will need to be done on adapting to life in a home. His education will need to continue using positive and kind methods, away from city stimuli. As a category dog, his future adopters will need to comply, and an outdoor access (yard) is required for his adoption. If you're a fan of the breed, come meet this big teddy bear!

Après 6 longs mois passés en fourrière suite à son arrivée illégale sur le territoire, The Roc a enfin la possibilité de trouver sa famille pour la vie. C’est un Rottweiler puissant, mais adorable avec l'humain et protecteur. Nous ne connaissons pas ses ententes avec les autres animaux (chien, chat), des tests pourront être effectués au refuge. Sans plus d'informations sur son passé, un travail probable devra être fait sur la vie en foyer de manière générale. Toute son éducation est à poursuivre en méthode positive et bienveillante loin des stimulis de la ville. Chien de catégorie, ses futurs adoptants devront se mettre en règle et un accès extérieur (jardin) est requis pour son adoption. Amateur de la race, venez rencontrer ce gros nounours !

About THE ROCK

What life with THE ROCK looks like

THE ROCK is a large young adult rottweiler dog waiting at SPA Gennevilliers (Grammont) in Gennevilliers.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Restricted breed requiring legal compliance and outdoor access

🇫🇷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 THE ROCK, answered.

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