Vito

Male Β· Young Β· 1 year

Hi, I'm Vito! A young, enthusiastic Labrador Retriever, 1 year old, with a good dose of energy and a big heart. Due to changing circumstances, I ended up in the animal shelter, but I hope to find a nice home soon where I can be myself completely. I'm a social guy and get along well with other dogs, although I can sometimes be too enthusiastic and pushy in the house. Therefore, it might be better if I have the house to myself, so I can get all the attention I want. Cats? I don't have any experience with them, so that's a bit of a question mark. I get along well with children, but due to my sometimes clumsy and energetic behavior, I'm looking for a home where the children are a bit older (from around 15 years old). I'm a well-behaved dog and have already had bench training. I can also be alone, as long as this is built up calmly. I love going for walks outside, although I still like to pull on the lead - so it's nice if my new owner is firm in their shoes and helps me with that. After all, I'm a big Labrador. With the right guidance, patience, and of course lots of love, I will grow into a great companion. Are you looking for a cheerful, eager-to-learn dog who wants to go on adventures with you? Then maybe I'm your Vito. Are you the one who wants to give Vito a second chance? Fill in the intake form below and who knows, you might be starting soon! Before you bring a dog into your home, we would like to know if you are aware of everything that comes with it. Read through the LICG pet information sheet. If you still have questions after that, we'll be happy to answer them.

Hoi, ik ben Vito! Ik ben nog maar net één jaar oud en ben onlangs vanuit een ander dierenasiel hier terechtgekomen. Ik ben dus nog jong en heb nog een heel leven voor me. Ik ben op zoek naar een lieve, geduldige en vooral verantwoordelijke baas die mij wil helpen om verder te groeien en mij een fijne toekomst kan geven. Ik ben een gezellige jongen die graag bij mensen is. Ik geniet van gezelschap en ben op zoek naar iemand die het leuk vindt om samen met mij dingen te ondernemen en mij de nodige uitdaging te geven. Tijdens het wandelen kan ik heerlijk ontspannen meelopen. Wanneer ik rustig kan wandelen, vertoon ik geen uitvalgedrag naar andere honden. Toch kan ik helaas niet samenleven met andere honden of katten. Daarom moet ik vanwege mijn gedrag naar andere honden aangelijnd worden uitgelaten. Alleen thuis zijn moet ik nog rustig leren. Met geduld en een goede opbouw kan ik hierin verder groeien. In de auto kan ik prima mee. Bij langere ritten word ik helaas wel autoziek. Verder ben ik zindelijk en klaar om samen met mijn nieuwe baasje op ontdekkingstocht te gaan. Ik zoek een thuis waar mijn nieuwe baas begrijpt dat ik nog jong ben en begeleiding nodig heb. Iemand die duidelijk en consequent is, maar mij vooral met geduld en vertrouwen wil begeleiden. Geef jij mij de tijd, aandacht en uitdaging die ik nodig heb? Dan hoop ik dat ik binnenkort met jou mee naar huis mag en eindelijk mijn eigen plekje mag vinden. Ben jij degene die Vito een leuke plek kan bieden ? Vul dan onderstaand intakeformulier in en wie weet kunnen jullie binnenkort van start! Voor je een hond in huis haalt zijn wij benieuwd of je weet wat er allemaal bij komt kijken. Lees je in door middel van deze LICG huisdierenbijsluiter. Heb je daarna nog vragen? Wij beantwoorden ze graag.

About Vito

What life with Vito looks like

Vito is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at ROZE Eindhoven in Netherlands.

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" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡³πŸ‡±Adopting from Netherlands

Dutch shelters typically require a household assessment and an adoption contract. Animals are routinely sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement.

Frequently asked

Adopting Vito, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Vito?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ROZE Eindhoven handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Vito on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Vito if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” ROZE Eindhoven 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 Vito 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Vito isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with ROZE Eindhoven early rather than rehoming privately; they know Vito 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 (NL). Translation is imperfect β€” 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.
