Adopt Xéna

Female · Adult · 4 years

My Story: Here is Xena, a 4-year-old American Bully mix named Xena. She arrived at the shelter after a stay at a pound. She is a full of energy dog who enjoys both active moments and her little comforts. Very affectionate, she loves human company and never hesitates to come looking for cuddles. My Personality: Xena is also very playful: her ball is one of her favorite toys, and treats win her over just as much! The relationships with other dogs will need to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, depending on their affinities. However, she gets along well with cats. A family with children could be a possibility for her, even though Xena can sometimes be a bit brusque in certain situations, especially when she is excited. I Love / I Don't Love: A big lover of walks, she will be thrilled to accompany you on all your adventures. After the effort, it's time for comfort: Xena adores snuggling into her soft basket for a well-deserved nap. Playful, cuddly, and full of life, Xena is just waiting for an affectionate family to share her daily life with.

Mon histoire : Voici Xena,une croisée American Bully de 4 ans,elle est arrivée au refuge après un passage en fourrière.C’est une chienne pleine d’énergie qui apprécie tout autant les moments d’activité que son petit confort. Très affectueuse, elle adore la compagnie des humains et n’hésite jamais à venir chercher des câlins. Mon caractère : Xena est également très joueuse : sa balle est l’un de ses jouets préférés, et les friandises remportent tout autant son enthousiasme !Les ententes avec les autres chiens seront à évaluer au cas par cas, selon les affinités. En revanche, elle s’entend bien avec les chats.Une famille avec des enfants pourra être envisagée pour elle, même s’il faudra garder à l’esprit que Xena peut parfois se montrer un peu brusque dans certaines situations, notamment lorsqu’elle est excitée. J'aime / J'aime pas : Grande amatrice de promenades, elle sera ravie de vous accompagner dans toutes vos aventures. Après l’effort, place au réconfort : Xena adore se blottir dans son panier moelleux pour une bonne sieste bien méritée.Joueuse, câline et pleine de vie, Xena n’attend plus qu’une famille aimante avec qui partager son quotidien.

About Xéna

What life with Xéna looks like

Xéna is a adult dog waiting at APAA Trégrom 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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Xéna, answered.

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