How do I contact the shelter about Yanick?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fondation Brigitte Bardot handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Yanick on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Yanick if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fondation Brigitte Bardot 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 Yanick 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 Yanick 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 Fondation Brigitte Bardot early rather than rehoming privately; they know Yanick 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.

Adopt Yanick

Mixed Breed · Male

Yanick, a magnificent German Shepherd with deep and intelligent eyes, is a charming dog who just wants to settle down for good. Already clean and well-trained, he knows the basics and shows respect in the house. Yanick appreciates the comfort of a stable home and will need a house with a yard, ideally in a rural or very quiet environment, far from the urban hustle and bustle that doesn’t suit him. This big sensitive soul isn’t a big athlete: he loves quiet walks and relaxation time, though he can also have his playful moments where his mischievous side comes out. Yanick gets along well with other dogs. However, cohabitation with cats is not possible for him. He has his own personality, like many German Shepherds: he knows what he wants, but he is deeply gentle, loyal, and close to his human once trust is established. A small quirky detail: Yanick has a bit of an unusual interest in brooms... Let’s say he prefers to closely supervise their use! It will simply require gentle management. Yanick is looking for a patient, present, and kind family willing to offer him the stability and reassuring environment he needs to thrive fully.

YANICK, magnifique Berger Allemand au regard profond et intelligent, est un chien attachant qui ne demande qu'à poser ses valises pour de bon. Déjà propre et bien éduqué, il connaît les bases et sait se montrer respectueux dans la maison. YANICK apprécie le confort d'un foyer stable et aura besoin d'une maison avec jardin, idéalement en environnement campagne ou très calme, loin de l'agitation urbaine qui ne lui convient pas. Ce grand sensible n'est pas un grand sportif : il aime les balades tranquilles et les moments de détente, même s'il peut aussi avoir ses petits instants joueurs où son côté malicieux refait surface. YANICK s'entend bien avec les chiens. En revanche, la cohabitation avec les chats n'est pas possible pour lui. Il a son petit caractère, comme beaucoup de bergers allemands : il sait ce qu'il veut, mais il est profondément gentil, loyal et proche de son humain une fois la confiance installée. Petit détail insolite : YANICK porte un intérêt un peu particulier aux balais... Disons qu'il préfère superviser leur utilisation de près ! Il faudra simplement savoir gérer avec douceur. YANICK recherche une famille patiente, présente et bienveillante, prête à lui offrir la stabilité et le cadre rassurant dont il a besoin pour s'épanouir pleinement.

About Yanick

What life with Yanick looks like

Yanick is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fondation Brigitte Bardot in Paris.

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.
