Askar

Mixed Breed · Male

A young, strong, energetic male who needs to be kept busy. He is very friendly and affectionate, but he needs clarity. Askar, born around 10/2024, approximately 65 cm tall, is still in Romania. Askar is a young, strong, energetic male who urgently needs people who can offer him plenty of physical and mental stimulation. Activities such as jogging and long walks would be ideal for him. He is a real bundle of energy. He ended up in the shelter because he was previously kept on a chain and was apparently too much of a handful near a child. Given that a young, powerful dog was chained up 24 hours a day with no outlet for his energy, this is sadly not surprising. At first he didn't know what was happening to him. He had no boundaries at all with other dogs and hardly knew any rules or limitations. He has since settled in well and has developed into a very friendly and affectionate dog. Nevertheless, he still needs training, a clear structure, and people who will show him, lovingly but consistently, what is expected of him. Who will give him a home?

jonge, sterke energieke reu die bezig gehouden moet worden, zeer vriendelijk en aanhankelijk, heeft duidelijkheid nodig. Askar, geboren ong 10/2024, ong 65 cm, verblijft nog in Roemenië. Askar is een jonge, sterke, energieke reu die dringend mensen nodig heeft die hem veel fysieke en mentale stimulatie kunnen bieden. Activiteiten zoals joggen, lange wandelingen zou ideaal zijn voor hem. Hij is een echte energiebundel. Hij kwam in het asiel terecht omdat hij voorheen aan een ketting werd gehouden en blijkbaar te druk was in de buurt van een kind. Gezien het feit dat een jonge, krachtige hond 24 uur per dag aan een ketting zat en zijn energie nergens kwijt kon, is dit helaas niet verwonderlijk. In het begin wist hij niet wat er met hem gebeurde. Hij had totaal geen grenzen met andere honden en kende nauwelijks regels of beperkingen. Hij is inmiddels goed gewend en heeft zich ontwikkeld tot een zeer vriendelijke en aanhankelijke hond. Desondanks heeft hij nog steeds training, een duidelijke structuur en mensen nodig die hem liefdevol maar consequent laten zien wat er van hem verwacht wordt. Bij wie mag hij komen wonen?

About Askar

What life with Askar looks like

Askar is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Rescani in NL-wide.

An 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 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 Askar, answered.

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