Balou 2,5 jaar

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Kleine Balou werd in Bosnië uit de auto gegooid in de buurt van een school. Wanhopig bleef ‘t mannetje daar ronddwalen. Sommige kinderen gaven wat eten, sommigen gooiden met stenen naar hem. Gelukkig werden wij gebeld en we hebben hem opgehaald. Balou blijkt een erg lief hondje. Hij houdt van mensen groot en klein. Ook kan hij uitstekend met andere honden en katten. Hij is ongeveer 2,5 jaar oud. Hij is slechts 10 kilo en 30 cm hoog. Balou is gecastreerd, gechipt, geënt en ontwormd. Hij is binnenkort te bewonderen in een opvanggezin in Nederland.

About Balou 2,5 jaar

What life with Balou 2,5 jaar looks like

Balou 2,5 jaar is a small 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. 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 Balou 2,5 jaar, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Balou 2,5 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 Balou 2,5 jaar on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Balou 2,5 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 Balou 2,5 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 Balou 2,5 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 Balou 2,5 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.
