Adopt Tyler

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Tyler is a dog who had a very rough start in life: found in a dismal pound in Romania in a state of extreme emaciation, he was rushed back home the day before his euthanasia. After bouncing around several unsuitable foster homes, the association in charge of him called us for help. Tyler is a loyal pup, deeply endearing, and finally deserves the stability and love he has never had. He is faithful and attached to his humans, and all he asks for is a family that will give him everything he needs! ❤️ Would you like to give him a home? Access the adoption application form. How can you resist this loyal pup who has suffered so much? We hope he finds the family that will give him the stability he needs 🙏 ✅ Health Tyler will come microchipped, vaccinated, and neutered. 🔥 🐶 Personality Tyler is a dog who exudes loyalty and sensitivity. He will be very close to the person or people who will be his masters. He is a loyal heart, deeply in need of love after everything he has gone through. He is an active but balanced dog. He doesn’t need to be taken out for two hours a day: he prefers short walks several times a day. He needs time, respect, his space, and rest. With his human, he knows how to be attentive and remains very focused. 🐕‍🦺 Education and Behavior Important to know: Tyler still has a hard time trusting and accepting contact with strangers. With people he doesn’t know, everything is fine as long as they don’t try to touch him. He is a guard at home, but after an introduction, he ignores. If you need a bodyguard during your outings, the person who dares to touch you will have to run very fast: he knows how to make a good impression, but he won’t go any further. Education work is ongoing with him, and he listens very well. He needs positive but firm and calming education, structure, and stability. He is okay with other dogs, with a tendency to protect (he lives with other dogs at the shelter). He is okay with indoor cats after introduction. No young children, who might not understand. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Ideal Family Tyler is looking for a patient, present, and experienced family that can offer him a stable environment, respect, and love. He is a dog who needs time to trust, but he will reward you a hundredfold to the one who can open his heart. Are you looking for a loyal companion who will be your faithful shadow? Tyler is for you. 💙 📝 Identity Card Characteristics Description Species Dog Gender Male Age Approximately 5 years Breed Mixed, very likely German Shepherd, potentially Belgian Shepherd/Malinois Neutered Yes Vaccinated Yes Microchipped Yes Location Ménerval, Seine-Maritime (76), Normandy (near Oise and Yvelines) OK with Dogs Yes, with a protective tendency OK with Cats Yes, indoors after introduction OK with Children No young children Personality Loyal, sensitive, attached to his human, guard, attentive, focused.

Tyler est un chien qui a très mal commencé sa vie : retrouvé en état de maigreur extrême dans une fourrière lugubre en Roumanie, il a été rapatrié en urgence la veille de son euthanasie. Après avoir enchaîné les familles d’accueil inadaptées, l’association qui l’avait en charge nous a appelés à l’aide. Tyler est un loulou loyal, profondément attachant et qui mérite enfin la stabilité et l’amour qu’il n’a jamais eus. Il est fidèle et attaché à ses humains, et il ne demande qu’une famille qui saura lui offrir tout l’amour et le cadre dont il a besoin ! ❤️ Vous souhaitez lui offrir un foyer ? Accéder au formulaire d’adoption Comment résister à ce loulou si loyal qui a tant souffert ? On souhaiterait qu’il trouve enfin la famille qui lui offrira la stabilité dont il a besoin 🙏 ✅ Santé Il viendra identifié, vacciné et castré 🔥 🐶 Personnalité Tyler est un chien qui respire la loyauté et la sensibilité . Il sera très proche de la ou des personnes qui seront ses maîtres . C’est un cœur loyal, qui a profondément besoin d’amour après tout ce qu’il a traversé. C’est un chien actif mais équilibré . Pas besoin de le sortir 2h par jour : il préfère les petits tours plusieurs fois dans la journée. Il a besoin de temps, de respect, de son espace à lui et de repos. Avec son humain, il sait être à l’écoute et reste très concentré. 🐕‍🦺 Éducation et comportement Important à savoir : Tyler a encore du mal à faire confiance et à accepter le contact avec des inconnus. Avec les gens qu’il ne connaît pas, tout va bien tant qu’ils n’essaient pas de le toucher. Il est gardien chez lui, mais après une introduction, il ignore. Si vous avez besoin d’un garde du corps lors de vos sorties, la personne qui osera vous toucher aura intérêt à courir très vite : il sait très bien faire peur, mais ne va pas plus loin. Un travail d’éducation est en cours avec lui, et il écoute très bien. Il a besoin d’une éducation positive mais ferme et apaisante , de cadre et de stabilité. Il est ok chiens , avec une tendance à protéger (il vit néanmoins avec des chiens au refuge). Il est ok chats en intérieur après introduction . Pas de jeunes enfants , qui pourraient ne pas le comprendre. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Famille idéale Tyler cherche une famille patiente, présente et expérimentée , capable de lui offrir un cadre stable, du respect et de l’amour. C’est un chien qui a besoin de temps pour faire confiance, mais qui rendra au centuple à celui ou celle qui saura lui ouvrir son cœur. Vous cherchez un compagnon loyal qui sera votre ombre fidèle ? Tyler est fait pour vous. 💙 📝 Fiche d’identité Caractéristiques Description Espèce Chien Sexe Mâle Âge Environ 5 ans Race Croisé, très certainement berger allemand, potentiellement berger belge/malinois Castré Oui Vacciné Oui Pucé Oui Localisation Ménerval, Seine Maritime (76), Normandie (proche Oise et Yvelines) OK Chiens Oui, avec tendance à protéger OK Chats Oui, en intérieur après introduction OK Enfants Pas de jeunes enfants Caractère Loyal, sensible, attaché à son humain, gardien, à l’écoute, concentré.

About Tyler

What life with Tyler looks like

Tyler is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Empattie in menerval.

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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tyler, answered.

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