Triumph

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Brought to the pound after preying on a livestock animal, I have since had two new families. The first brought me back to the shelter thin and with a skin condition following a change in their circumstances. The second, after learning my history and behavior and committing to look after me for the rest of my life, brought me back after I attacked a small dog, because they were "just starting out in life" and could not look after me. So yes, I have a behavior that can be difficult to manage around other animals, and it will take work for me to be able to cross paths with them without reacting. On the other hand, I am very sociable with humans. I need someone to devote time to me and give me affection, and I ask that I not be adopted as an object that might show you off.

Arrivé en fourrière après avoir prédaté un animal de rente, j’ai depuis connu deux nouvelles familles : la première m’a ramené au refuge amaigri et avec une maladie de peau suite à un changement de situation. La seconde après avoir pris connaissance de mon histoire et mon comportement et s’être engagée à s’occuper de moi pour toute ma vie m’a ramené suite à une attaque sur un chien de petite taille, car ils « débutaient dans la vie » et ne pouvaient pas s’occuper de moi.Alors oui j’ai un comportement qui peut être compliqué à gérer envers les autres animaux, cela va demander du travail pour que je puisse les croiser sans réagir. En revanche je suis très sociable envers l’humain, j’ai besoin qu’on me consacre du temps, de l’affection et qu’on ne m’adopte pas comme un objet qui pourrait vous mettre en valeur.

About Triumph

What life with Triumph looks like

Triumph is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Montélimar 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 Triumph, answered.

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