Francois

Adopted on 19 May 2026

Hello! My name is Francois!

I am a gentle, calm, and very affectionate dog. I love cuddles and being around people, even if I’m still a little shy at first. I just need a bit of time to feel safe and build trust… but once I do, I become an incredibly loving companion. I was found as a stray, so my past remains a mystery. Maybe I’ve gone through things that made me a bit anxious today. But what I do know is that I have so much love to give, and I dream of a kind, patient family who will help me feel secure. I’m also quite food-motivated (treats are definitely the way to my heart), and with gentle care, I’ll continue to grow and thrive every day. If you’re looking for a quiet, sensitive, and deeply devoted companion… I might be the one for you. Could you be my second chance?

Adoption hours.
By appointment only

No animal reservations, in order to maximize the chances of placing our animals with good families.

3. Visiting the shelter

The visit is an opportunity for you to meet our animals and, for our team, to assess certain aspects of your application to ensure the adoption is a success.

We ask that the entire family be present at the appointment to ensure compatibility between the dog and each family member (spouse/partner, child(ren), and other dog(s)).

If the visit is positive, we finalize the adoption on site and you go home with your new companion!
