Twix

Labrador Retriever · Male · Adult · 8 years

Very friendly and affectionate, Twix is a dog that is close to humans. He does not get along with dogs, cats, chickens or other farm animals: he will have to be the only animal in the house.

FR·Show original

Très gentil et attachant, Twix est un chien proche de l'humain. Il ne s'entend ni avec les chiens, ni avec les chats, ni avec les poules ou les autres animaux de basse-cour : il devra être le seul animal de la maison.

About Twix

What life with Twix looks like

Twix is a medium-sized adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Refuge Vermelles in Vermelles.

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 Twix, answered.

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