TYSON

Mixed Breed · Male

TYSON, at the shelter for 28 days. My name is TYSON, a beautiful Argentine Mastiff crossbreed abandoned at the shelter because no one could take care of me after my owners left. I am very kind and friendly, I love going on long walks during which I am rather calm, and to cool off in water. I like it when people come to visit me to tickle me, play with me and give me treats because I am quite greedy and I don't like being alone too much due to my recent abandonment and its conditions. Today I don't get along with other animals of the same species because I was bitten when I was small (work to be considered with a trainer); I lived with cats and children (be careful, I can be energetic!). So if you also like daily long walks, playing, cuddles, and if you have the patience, tenderness and motivation to take care of me, I am your dog 🙂 See you soon for a visit!

Je m’appelle Tyson, beau croisé Dogue Argentin abandonné au refuge car personne ne pouvait plus s’occuper de moi après le départ de mes maîtres. Je suis très gentil et sociable humain, j’adore partir faire de longues balades pendant lesquelles je suis plutôt calme, et me rafraichir dans l’eau. J’aime que l’on vienne me rendre visite pour me gratouiller, jouer et me donner des friandises car je suis assez gourmand et je n’aime pas trop être seul du fait de mon récent abandon et ses conditions. Aujourd’hui je ne m’entends pas trop avec avec mes congénères car je me suis fait mordre étant petit (travail à envisager avec un éducateur); je vivais avec des chats et des enfants (attention je peux être énergique!) Alors si vous aimez aussi les longues balades quotidiennes, jouer, les câlins, que vous avez la patience, la douceur et la motivation pour prendre soin de moi, je suis votre toutou 🙂 A bientôt pour une visite !

About TYSON

What life with TYSON looks like

TYSON is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Lagord / La Rochelle in Lagord.

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 TYSON, answered.

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