Albina♀ 6 jaar

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Albina was found on the streets of Bosnia with a tumor under her belly as big as a football. It was removed and we let her come to the Netherlands because of the icy cold in Bosnia. Albina is about 6 years old and 40 kg, but she can still gain some weight. She also needs to build up her muscles by walking, which she hasn't done for a long time. Albina is a Tornjak, which are used to protect sheep from wolves and jackals. She is no longer suitable for this, but fortunately she loves to lie indoors. Albina is a very calm and affectionate dog who likes every human. She is best brushed and cuddled for hours. We have not heard her bark and she does not guard either. She lets everyone friendly on the farm. Ideal if you are looking for a dog that scares away with her appearance but does nothing. Strangers dogs need to get used to her. Own dogs and cats are fine. She walks very calmly on a leash but can also run loose. Albina will be sterilized, vaccinated, chipped and dewormed soon. She can be admired in a foster home in Hoogeveen.

Albina werd gevonden op straat in Bosnië met een tumor onder haar buik zo groot als een voetbal. Deze is verwijderd en we lieten haar naar Nederland komen vanwege de ijzige kou in Bosnië. Albina is ongeveer 6 jaar oud en 40 kilo maar daar mogen nog wel wat kilootjes bij. Ook moet ze weer spieren opbouwen door te lopen, dat heeft ze ws lange tijd niet gedaan. Albina is een Tornjak, die worden gebruikt om de schapen te beschermen tegen wolven en jakhalzen. Daar is ze niet meer geschikt voor, maar gelukkig vindt ze het heerlijk om binnen te liggen. Albina is een hele rustige aanhankelijke hond die ieder mens aardig vindt. Ze wordt t liefst uren geborsteld en geknuffeld. We hebben haar nog niet horen blaffen en ze waakt ook niet. Ze laat iedereen vriendelijk op het erf. Ideaal dus als je een hond zoekt die wel afschrikt door haar uiterlijk maar niets doet. Vreemde honden moet ze wel even aan wennen. Eigen honden en katten gaat prima. Ze loopt heel rustig aan de riem maar kan ook los. Albina wordt binnenkort gesteriliseerd, is geënt en gechipt en ontwormd. Ze is te bewonderen in een opvanggezin in Hoogeveen.

About Albina♀ 6 jaar

What life with Albina♀ 6 jaar looks like

Albina♀ 6 jaar is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at stichting Idemo in Netherlands.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇳🇱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 Albina♀ 6 jaar, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Albina♀ 6 jaar?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. stichting Idemo handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Albina♀ 6 jaar on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Albina♀ 6 jaar if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — stichting Idemo 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 Albina♀ 6 jaar 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 Albina♀ 6 jaar 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 stichting Idemo early rather than rehoming privately; they know Albina♀ 6 jaar 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 — 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.
