Adopt Themis

Doberman · Female · Adult · 7 years

Themis Thémis was rescued from poor living conditions, where she lived with several of her other animals of the same species. Upon arrival at our shelter, she was very emaciated and had several wounds. Despite her difficult past, Thémis is a very human-friendly dog, affectionate and attentive. She learns quickly and seems to already have some basic training. She gets along well with her other animals of the same species and with the cats.

THEMIS Thémis a été retirée pour mauvaises conditions de vie, où elle vivait avec plusieurs de ses congénères. À son arrivée, elle était très amaigrie et présentait plusieurs plaies. Malgré son passé difficile, Thémis est une chienne très proche de l’humain, affectueuse et attentive. Elle apprend rapidement et semble déjà avoir quelques bases d’éducation. Elle s’entend bien avec ses congénères et avec les chats.

About Themis

What life with Themis looks like

Themis is a adult doberman dog waiting at APA63 Clermont-Ferrand in Clermont-Ferrand.

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 Themis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Themis?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. APA63 Clermont-Ferrand handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Themis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Themis if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — APA63 Clermont-Ferrand 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 Themis 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 Themis 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 APA63 Clermont-Ferrand early rather than rehoming privately; they know Themis 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.
