Vapo

Labrador Retriever · Male · Young · 2 years

Hello, my name is Vapo. I am a labrador mix a little over a year old. I am very friendly and full of energy. Considering my young age, my future family will need to continue my education and help me stay alone without destroying things. Once I know an order, I carry it out with pleasure! The presence of a cat is not recommended but I get along well with dogs. If you are looking for a great companion, I am made for you but I will need activities! The only downside, which my caregivers have noticed, is destruction, you will need to keep some distance to avoid excessive attachment and teach me to be good during your absence. His adoption is 315€, this includes veterinary fees (microchip identification, first vaccination, neutering, deworming). The shelter is open every day from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesdays) from 2 PM to 5 PM.

Salut, moi c’est Vapo. Je suis un croisé labrador d'un peu plus d’un an. Je suis très sympa et plein de vivacité. Compte tenu de mon jeune âge, ma future famille devra poursuivre mon éducation et m’aider à rester seul sans détruire. Une fois que je connais un ordre, je l’exécute avec plaisir ! La présence de chat est déconseillée mais je m’entends bien avec les chiens. Si vous cherchez un super compagnon de vie, je suis fait pour vous mais j'aurai besoin d'activités ! Le seul défaut, que mes soigneurs ont remarqué, est la destruction, il faudra mettre de la distance afin d'éviter un hyper attachement et m'apprendre à être sage pendant vos absences. Son adoption s'élève à 315€, cela comprend les frais vétérinaires (identification par puce électronique, la primo-vaccination, la castration, le déparasitage). Le refuge est ouvert tous les jours du lundi au dimanche (sauf les mardis) de 14H à 17H.

About Vapo

What life with Vapo looks like

Vapo is a young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at SPA de Périgueux in France.

A young 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, and shelters often cover sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and a passport. Confirm with the shelter what is included. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Vapo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Vapo?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. SPA de Périgueux handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Vapo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Vapo if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask SPA de Périgueux whether they will for Vapo, what they require (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 Vapo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: SPA de Périgueux lists Vapo as vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by SPA de Périgueux, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Vapo isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask SPA de Périgueux about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Vapo 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.
