Zila

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Zila, a 4-year-old dynamic and affectionate Shepherd from the island of Réunion, is looking for a new home. She is very close to humans and loves to play and spend time with her family. She gets along with dogs but not with cats or chickens. She can live with children. Zila needs a home where she can receive attention and interaction. She requires ongoing training: she can pull on the leash, but she knows how to hike and loves to exercise. She needs a well-fenced apartment or house as she is a high-flying escape artist. Identified, dewormed, and spayed, Zila hopes to find a family that will give her exciting adventures!

About Zila

What life with Zila looks like

Zila is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SPA Compiègne in Compiègne.

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 that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Zila, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Zila?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SPA Compiègne handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Zila on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Zila if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SPA Compiègne 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Zila 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 Zila 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 Compiègne early rather than rehoming privately; they know Zila 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.
