Baya

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 7 years

Some weeks ago, our rescuer Timea discovered a litter of pups on an abandoned yard. Five small puppies were huddled close together while their mother stayed nearby to protect them. She quickly brought the pups to safety, but their mother would not let anyone near her. Eventually, Timea managed to catch her and take her to a safe environment. There, she could finally relax and recover from the stress she had built up over the years. She was given the name Baya, named after the place where she was found: an abandoned 'BAckYArd'. This name refers not only to her finding location, but also marks the beginning of a new phase in her life. Baya is a kind and gentle dog around six or seven years old. Despite her past, she is now showing more and more of her friendly character. She has a calm nature, is affectionate towards people and visibly enjoys attention when she receives it at her own pace. Moreover, she gets along well with other dogs. It is touching to see how a dog who has cared for her pups for so long can now finally experience what it feels like to be wanted. Baya deserves nothing less than a warm, stable and loving home, where she can discover that life does not have to revolve around survival, but rather around peace and affection. Finally, Baya is vaccinated and spayed. She is therefore completely ready to start her new life: a life full of freedom, warmth and cuddles. Who will give this lovely dog her golden bed? Photos and Videos Baya is looking for a nice home ❤️ Size: approx. 55 cm / approx. 18 kg Born: estimated 2019 Neutered: yes Residence: Sovata, Romania Cats: unknown Horses: unknown Temperament: social, friendly, loving We think Baya can develop into a good family dog with your help! She is doing well with her foster carer in Romania. That does not mean she will not have to get used to a new living environment. Her new owner will be patient and guide her well.

Enkele weken geleden ontdekte onze rescuer Timea op een verlaten erf een nestje pups. Vijf kleine hondjes zaten dicht tegen elkaar aan, terwijl hun moeder in de buurt bleef om hen te beschermen. De pups bracht ze snel in veiligheid, maar hun moeder liet niemand in haar buurt komen. Uiteindelijk wist Timea haar te vangen en mee te nemen naar een veilige omgeving. Daar kon ze voor het eerst in lange tijd ontspannen en bijkomen van de stress die ze jarenlang had opgebouwd. Ze kreeg de naam Baya, vernoemd naar de plek waar ze werd gevonden: een verlaten ‘BAckYArd'. Deze naam verwijst niet alleen naar haar vindplaats, maar markeert tegelijkertijd het begin van een nieuwe fase in haar leven. Baya is een lieve en zachte hond van ongeveer zes à zeven jaar oud. Ondanks haar verleden laat ze nu steeds meer van haar vriendelijke karakter zien. Ze heeft een rustige aard, is lief naar mensen en geniet zichtbaar van aandacht wanneer ze die in haar eigen tempo mag ontvangen. Bovendien gaat ze goed om met andere honden. Het is ontroerend om te zien hoe een hond die zo lang voor haar pups heeft gezorgd, nu eindelijk zelf mag ervaren hoe het voelt om gewenst te zijn. Baya verdient niets minder dan een warm, stabiel en liefdevol thuis, waar ze kan ontdekken dat het leven niet alleen hoeft te draaien om overleven, maar juist om rust en genegenheid. Tenslotte is Baya gevaccineerd en gesteriliseerd. Ze is dus helemaal klaar om aan haar nieuwe leven te beginnen: een leven vol vrijheid, warmte en knuffels. Wie gunt deze lieve hond haar gouden mandje? Foto's en Video's Baya zoekt een fijn thuis ❤️ Formaat: ca. 55 cm / ca. 18 kg Geboren: geschat 2019 Geneutraliseerd: ja Verblijfplaats: Sovata, Roemenië Katten: onbekend Paarden: onbekend Temperament: sociaal, vriendelijk, lief We denken dat Baya zich kan ontwikkelen tot een fijne huishond met uw hulp! Zij doet het goed bij haar opvangster in Roemenië. Dat neemt niet weg dat ook zij erg zal moeten wennen aan een nieuwe leefomgeving. Haar nieuwe baasje is geduldig en zal haar hierbij goed begeleiden. Heeft u serieuze interesse in Baya? Vul dan het intakeformulier in, hiermee verplicht u zich nog tot niets. Na ontvangst van het intakeformulier zullen wij zo spoedig mogelijk contact met u opnemen.

About Baya

What life with Baya looks like

Baya is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Help een Hond 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 Baya, answered.

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