Adopt Trevor

Chihuahua · Male · Adult · 4 years

Trevor belonged to a person in great decline who could no longer take care of him at all. After his condition deteriorated, he was entrusted to a family who could not keep him. Upon arrival at the our shelter, Trevor was very fearful, defensive, as he did not often venture out of his home. Therefore, he was not very sociable towards strangers and other species. With a bit of patience and gentleness, he learns to gradually expand his social circle. He knows how to be affectionate and demonstrative to welcome his humans. He also learns to love his other animals of the same species and similar size: he is even very curious about them and plays a lot with them. Caution, he often shows possessiveness with his toys. Once reassured, he loves to give and receive hugs, and snuggle up to us, but he must continue to understand that he can walk on his own without fearing an imminent danger, which helps him feel more secure. He cannot be placed with young children. A garden would be desirable, as well as a lot of presence and patience.

Read original (fr)

Trevor appartenait à une personne en grande perte d’autonomie qui ne pouvait pas du tout s’en occuper. Suite à la dégradation de son état il a été confié à une famille qui n'a pu le garder. Trevor est arrivé très craintif au refuge, il était sur la défensive, car il ne sortait pas souvent de chez lui. Il était donc peu sociable envers les inconnus et les autres espèces. Avec un peu de patience et de douceur, il apprend à agrandir progressivement son fan club. Il sait se montrer câlin et démonstratif pour accueillir ses humains. Il apprend aussi à aimer ses congénères de même gabarit que lui : il en est même très curieux et joue beaucoup. Attention, il se montre souvent possessif avec ses jouets. Une fois rassuré, il adore faire des câlins, des bisous, et se blottir contre nous, mais il doit cependant continuer de comprendre qu’il peut marcher tout seul sans craindre de danger imminent, ce qui l’aide à être mieux dans ses pattes. Il ne pourra pas être placé avec de jeunes enfants. Un jardin serait souhaitable, ainsi que beaucoup de présence et de patience.

About Trevor

What life with Trevor looks like

Trevor is a large adult chihuahua dog waiting at 30 Millions d'Amis in Paris.

An 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.

🇫🇷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 Trevor, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Trevor?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. 30 Millions d'Amis handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Trevor on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Trevor if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — 30 Millions d'Amis 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 Trevor 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 Trevor 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 30 Millions d'Amis early rather than rehoming privately; they know Trevor 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.
