TIKKA

Male · Young · 1 year

Tikka is a little guy who is bursting with energy: running, playing, jumping, he's always on the go! He's also very affectionate and seeks interaction with visitors. In the park, he gets along well with other dogs, but can quickly become a bit clumsy and annoying, and prefers not to share his kennel: a home where he will be the only dog would suit him better.

FR·Show original

Tikka est un petit bonhomme qui déborde d’énergie : courir, jouer, sauter, il est toujours en action! Il est aussi très câlin, et recherche les interactions avec les visiteurs. En parc il s’entend bien avec les autres chiens, mais peut vite se montrer un brin lourdaud et casse-pieds, et préfère ne pas partager son box: un foyer dont il sera le seul chien lui conviendra davantage.

About TIKKA

What life with TIKKA looks like

TIKKA is a young adult dog waiting at SPA Torreilles in Torreilles.

An young 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 TIKKA, answered.

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