THEO

Cane Corso · Male · Adult · 6 years

Descriptif :THEO a été trouvé errant, non identifié et non réclamé. Au refuge, il se montre craintif. Il aura besoin d’adoptants doux et patients, qui prendront le temps de le mettre en confiance. Il a quelques bases d’éducation qu’il faudra continuer de parfaire comme la solitude, la gestion des émotions, la propreté… Nous ne connaissons pas son entente avec les chiens ; si vous en avez un, n’hésitez pas à demander une présentation en parc de détente. Son entente avec les chats est inconnue. THEO sera placé dans un foyer sans enfant en bas-âge. Placement en maison avec jardin ou en appartement si bonnes disponibilités.

About THEO

What life with THEO looks like

THEO is an adult cane corso dog waiting at SPA de Lyon et du Sud-Est in France.

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. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting THEO, answered.

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