Adopt THOR

Male · Young · 3 years

THOR is a adorable big teddy bear. He is affectionate, playful, and very friendly with humans. An apartment or house life would suit him well. There should be no children in his future family. On walks, THOR is very pleasant, he doesn't pull. However, he doesn't tolerate a reactive dog. He doesn't seem to get along with other animals. We remind you that for the adoption of an animal, you must present the certificate of commitment and knowledge dated and signed at least 7 days before your visit to the shelter. Without this document, you will not be able to adopt.

About THOR

What life with THOR looks like

THOR is a large young adult dog waiting at SPA Cluses in Cluses.

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: Does not get along with other animals, needs home without children, can be defensive with reactive dogs

🇫🇷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 THOR, answered.

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