Bella

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Gezocht: een echte mechelse herder liefhebber en kenner! Bella is een jonge, energieke dame met een enorme dosis enthousiasme en een hart van goud. Zodra ze je vertrouwt, komt haar lieve en aanhankelijke karakter snel naar boven. Knuffelen? Daar is Bella dol op! Bella is slim, nieuwsgierig en vindt het leuk om bezig te zijn. Ze zoekt graag uitdaging op en werkt graag voor je, vooral wanneer ze haar neus mag gebruiken. Snuffelspelletjes en mentale uitdaging zouden daarom perfect bij haar passen. Wel merken we dat Bella nog weinig echte opvoeding heeft gehad. Ze kent een aantal commando’s, maar is snel afgeleid en kan flink trekken aan de lijn. Daarom zoeken we voor haar een baas die bereid is om met haar aan de slag te gaan. Een cursus of verdere training is dan ook echt aanbevolen. Met de juiste begeleiding verwachten wij dat Bella nog enorme stappen kan maken. Volgens haar vorige eigenaar kan Bella maximaal ongeveer 3 uur alleen zijn. Ze was gewend om ’s nachts of wanneer ze alleen thuis was in de bench te gaan. Daarnaast is ze zindelijk en vindt ze autorijden geen probleem. Buiten kan Bella sterk reageren op katten en hier echt op willen jagen. Daar moet een nieuwe eigenaar dus rekening mee houden. Voor Bella zoeken we een actief thuis waar duidelijkheid, begeleiding en voldoende uitdaging aanwezig zijn. Een plek waar ze niet alleen haar energie kwijt kan, maar ook verder mag leren en groeien tot de fantastische hond die ze in zich heeft. Vroenhoutseweg 37 4703 SH Roosendaal Tel.

About Bella

What life with Bella looks like

Bella is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Het Dierenhuis 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 Bella, answered.

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