Adopt ZOYA

Female · Young · 2 years

Zoya has just arrived at the shelter via the pound, and we do not know her past. Zoya arrived with some apprehension about her new environment... over time she has relaxed and learned to trust us. She will need a calm and patient family who will give her time to trust them. She is a loving, affectionate, somewhat playful dog. We do not know how she gets along with cats. However, she will not be able to live with or be around other dogs. A life in a house would be ideal given her shyness. She can live with older children who are calm and respectful. She seems rather calm and does not have destructive behavior in her crate; she will probably tolerate some absence.

Zoya vient d'arriver au refuge via la fourrière, nous ne connaissons pas son passé. Zoya est arrivée avec un peu d'appréhension envers son nouvel environnement... avec le temps elle a su se détendre et nous faire confiance. elle aura besoin d'une famille calme et patiente qui lui laissera le temps de leur faire confiance. C'est une chienne affectueuse, câline, un brin joueuse. Nous ne connaissons pas ses ententes avec les chats. En revanche, mademoiselle ne pourra pas vivre ou cotoyer d'autres chiens. Une vie en maison serait l'idéal au vu de sa timidité. Elle pourra vivre avec de grands enfants calmes et respectueux. Elle semble être plutôt calme et elle n'a pas de comportement destructeur au sein de son box, elle pourra sûrement tolérer un peu d'absence.

About ZOYA

What life with ZOYA looks like

ZOYA is a young adult dog waiting at SPA Orgeval in Orgeval.

An 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. Fees are typically €150–€300. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting ZOYA, answered.

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