TOMY

Golden Retriever · Unknown · Young · 2 years

TOMY, 2 and a half years old. Département 06. NEUTERING MANDATORY. Approximately 45 kg. Children: OK. Cats: Not OK, they chase. Dogs: Females: OK; Males: we will avoid for safety. House with garden. TOMY's words: "At the ripe age of 2 and a half (yes, I'm still a big kid), I'm a sweet Golden, always cheerful, energetic, lively, playful with humans as much as with my girlfriends. I love cuddles like any self-respecting Golden. I get along with everyone, but it's preferable that my future family's furry friends be females. I ADORE CHILDREN and I ADORE SWIMMING, I either sit down in the water or lie down in it, depending on my mood. I love walks, but they will have to be ADAPTED TO MY PACE because I have elbow dysplasia, of borderline (S/L) grade. I don't suffer, I don't limp, I need no treatment or surgery (for the time being). I remain a big kid, full of energy, liveliness and joy." Our Goldens are waiting for their Families for Life and will be happy to share moments of joy, cuddles, companionship and happiness with each of them.

About TOMY

What life with TOMY looks like

TOMY is a young adult golden retriever dog waiting at WAMAKA in wamaka.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting TOMY, answered.

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