Bolek

Mixed Breed ยท Male ยท Puppy ยท 4 months

Bolek and Lolek are now "indoor only."** Because there is a threat to the Pumpkin Patches, it has been decided to move Bolek, Lolek and their buddy Jumbo to the sick bay at the caravan site. Of course this isn't the intention, but we need the puppy kennel for the little ones, and afterwards Bolek's (but especially Lolek's) socialization will go even better. At the caravan site the volunteers are present more often and usually aren't working flat out, so there is room for cuddling and playing. The dogs of the caravan crew are also closer now and get more from them. Bolek was already doing wonderfully, and Lolek is now too. 24-08-2026 **Not yet out of danger.** Bolek and Lolek were found by Katerina in the same collapsed house where the Cloud Crew was rescued. With once again no mama nearby and danger from further collapse, Katerina took the pups to the abandoned garden, where the family had moved out again. (Ed. The family who owns the house returned for a short period. Due to circumstances they have now very quickly gone back to Athens, and the garden is available again for Katerina.) Unfortunately Bolek in particular was very frightened, and Katerina cannot take them to the vet. As soon as they are a bit more used to people, that step will of course be taken as quickly as possible. Bolek and Lolek are named after a cartoon from the '80s/'90s. Hopefully they'll turn out just as funny as the cartoon characters. For now the dogs are not being promoted, but we are keeping an eye on them. Would you like to help with the costs for Bolek and Lolek? Then virtual adoption is a lovely way to do it! Virtual adoption is available from โ‚ฌ7.50 per month. 21-09-2026 **The dog is doing well with the people!** The daily care and the tireless efforts to win their trust are paying off!!! Katerina can already pick up the boys. She remains careful and takes things calmly. Now that Katerina has been away from home for a few days, the Workaway volunteers will take over the task, and for Lolek and Bolek that is good news, because now they will see that Katerina isn't the only nice person. Workaway Alissa has already visited them a few times so they could get used to her. Of course we can't wait for new updates! **At this moment, Bolek (M) and Lolek (M) are both looking for a virtual adopter.** Today we are doing our best to find Bolek and Lolek at least a virtual basket, a kind of family of their own (but at a distance). Some animals may really not be able to come, or have a very small chance of coming to the Netherlands. In addition, not everyone has the space or financial means to take a housemate in. But if you would like to contribute on a structural basis and support a sweetheart, then virtual adoption or sponsorship at a distance may perhaps be something for you (for example for our dear puppies Bolek and Lolek). That way you can contribute monthly to the care of a dog and support your animal at a distance. You can do this from โ‚ฌ7.50 per month. See our website for exactly how it works at adopteereenhondfts.nl/virtuele-adoptie/ 08-10-2026 **Bolek absolutely adores the volunteers.** He is super approachable, open and friendly. He is a little clown who also really loves lounging. Since the little pups were added, he has become more playful, in a careful way, but... he doesn't know his own size and weight and can be a bit clumsy. That is why it has been decided that the brothers should come to the FTS Safe Haven. The garden then remains safe for the littlest ones, and Bolek and Lolek get even better socialization. Of course they start in the puppy pen. 22-10-2026 **Bolek and Lolek arrived at the Safe Haven "too early" on 10-10-2026.** The right measures had been taken to keep them as safe as possible, but for the safety of the smaller litter they had to be moved. Bolek and Lolek have been doing even better since then. Lolek will be ready to be promoted at any moment, and Bolek already was. The sweet, playful pups are now becoming more social and affectionate at a rapid pace. On 17-10-2026 Jumbo joined them, and they immediately admitted him to the group and are playing with each other nonstop. They are very curious about the world outside the puppy kennel; just a little longer!!! And then the kennel door will open and they'll get a bit more freedom.

Omdat er een dreiging is voor de Pumpkin Patches is besloten Bolek, Lolek en vriendje Jumbo te verhuizen naar de ziekenboeg op het caravan terrein. Eigenlijk is dit niet de bedoeling natuurlijk, maar we hebben de puppykennel nodig voor de kleintjes en achteraf gaat de socialisatie van Bolek (maar vooral) Lolek zo nog beter. Op het caravan terrein zijn de vrijwilligers vaker aanwezig en meestal niet keihard aan het werk. En is er dus ruimte voor knuffelen en spelen. Ook de hondjes van de caravan crew zijn nu dichterbij en krijgen ze meer van mee. Bolek deed het al geweldig, Lolek inmiddels ook. 24-08-2026 ๐๐จ๐  ๐ง๐ข๐ž๐ญ ๐›๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐๐๐ž๐ฅ๐›๐š๐š๐ซ. Bolek en Lolek werden door Katerina gevonden in hetzelfde ingestorte huis, waar de Cloud Crew gered is. Met weer eens geen mama in de buurt en gevaar vanwege verder instorten, heeft Katerina de pups meegenomen naar de verlaten tuin, waar de familie weer uitgetrokken is (red. de familie waar het huis van is, is een korte periode weer terug geweest. Wegens omstandigheden zijn ze nu zeer snel weer terug naar Athene vertrokken en is de tuin weer beschikbaar voor Katerina). Helaas was vooral Bolek heel angstig en kan Katerina ze niet meenemen naar de dierenarts. Zodra ze iets meer aan mensen gewend zijn, zal de stap natuurlijk zo snel mogelijk genomen worden. Bolek en Lolek zijn vernoemd naar een tekenfilm uit de jaren โ€™80/โ€™90. Hopelijk worden ze net zo grappig als de tekenfilmfiguurtjes. Voor nu worden de hondjes niet gepromoot, maar we houden ze wel in de gaten. Wil je helpen in de kosten voor Bolek en Lolek? Dan is virtuele adoptie een mooie manier! Virtuele adoptie kan al vanaf โ‚ฌ7,50 per maand. 21-09-2026 ๐‡๐ž๐ญ ๐ ๐š๐š๐ญ ๐ ๐จ๐ž๐ ๐ฆ๐ž๐ญ ๐๐ž ๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐ง๐ž๐ญ๐ฃ๐ž๐ฌ! De dagelijkse verzorging en niet aflatende pogingen het vertrouwen te winnen betaalt zich uit!!! Katerina kan de jongens al aanhalen. Wel blijft zij voorzichtig en doet ze rustig aan. Nu Katerina een aantal dagen van huis is, zullen de Workaway de taak overnemen en voor Lolek en Bolek is dat goed nieuws, want nu zullen ze zien dat niet alleen Katerina leuk is. Workaway Alissa is al een paar keer bij ze langs geweest, zodat ze aan haar konden wennen. We kunnen natuurlijk weer niet wachten op nieuwe updates. ๐—ข๐—ฝ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ ๐ณ๐ข๐ฃ๐ง ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ž๐ค (๐Œ) ๐ž๐ง ๐‹๐จ๐ฅ๐ž๐ค (๐Œ) ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—น ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป. Vandaag doen we ons best om voor Bolek en Lolek in ieder geval een virtueel mandje te vinden, een soort van eigen familie (maar dan op afstand). Sommige dieren kunnen misschien echt niet, of hebben een hele kleine kans om naar Nederland te komen. Daarnaast heeft niet iedereen de ruimte of financiรซle middelen om er een huisgenoot bij te nemen. Maar wil je misschien wel structureel een beetje bijdragen en een lieverd steunen dan is virtueel adopteren of sponsoren op afstand hopelijk misschien iets voor jou (en dan bijvoorbeeld onze lieve puppers Bolek en Lolek). Dan kun je toch maandelijks bijdragen aan de verzorging van een hondje en jouw diertje op afstand steunen. Dit doe je al vanaf โ‚ฌ7,50 per maand. Kijk op onze website hoe dit precies in zijn werk gaat via adopteereenhondfts. nl/virtuele-adoptie/ 08-10-2026 Bolek vindt de vrijwilligers helemaal geweldig. Hij is super benaderbaar, open en vriendelijk. Het is een clowntje, die ook erg van loungen houdt. Sinds de kleine pups erbij gezet zijn, is hij speelser, op een voorzichtige manier, maarโ€ฆ kent zijn eigen grootte en gewicht niet en kan wat lomp zijn. Daarom is besloten dat de broertjes naar de FTS Safe Haven moeten komen. De tuin blijft dan veilig voor de kleinsten en Bolek en Lolek krijgen nog betere socialisatie. Natuurlijk beginnen ze in de puppy-ren. 22-10-2026 Bolek en Lolek kwamen 10-10-2026 โ€™te vroegโ€™ op de Safe Haven. De juiste maatregelen waren wel getroffen om ze zo veilig mogelijk te houden, maar voor de veiligheid van het kleinere nestje, moesten ze verplaatsen. Bolek en Lolek doen het sindsdien nรณg beter. Lolek zal elk moment klaar zijn om gepromoot te worden en Bolek was dat al. De lieve, speelse pups worden nu in razend tempo socialer en aanhankelijker. Op 17-10-2026 voegde Jumbo bij zich en ze hebben hem meteen toegelaten in de groep en spelen continu met elkaar. Ze zijn heel nieuwsgierig naar de wereld buiten de puppy kennel; nog even wachten!!! en dan opent de kenneldeur en krijgen ze net iets meer vrijheid.

About Bolek

What life with Bolek looks like

Bolek is a medium-sized puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting FTS - Paws of Greece in NL-wide.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window โ€” house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑAdopting 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 Bolek, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bolek?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting FTS - Paws of Greece handles screening and the adoption contract directly โ€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bolek on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bolek if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad โ€” Stichting FTS - Paws of Greece 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 Bolek 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 โ€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Bolek isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work โ€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Stichting FTS - Paws of Greece early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bolek 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 โ€” 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.
