Choco

Chihuahua · Unknown · Young · 1 year

Maak kennis met Choco, een vrolijke chihuahua van 1,5 jaar jong! Choco is een ontzettend sociaal hondje dat graag in de buurt van mensen vertoeft. Ook met andere honden kan ze het prima vinden! Zoals het een echte chihuahua betaamt, durft Choco zich af en toe wel eens te laten horen. Ze is behoorlijk waaks en blaft wanneer ze iets opmerkt. Ook binnenshuis heeft ze nog wat begeleiding nodig om meer rust te vinden. Met de nodige structuur, geduld en training kan hier zeker verder aan gewerkt worden. Een appartement lijkt ons daarom minder geschikt, voornamelijk vanwege haar geblaf en de mogelijke overlast voor de buren. Een woning waar dit minder snel voor problemen zorgt, zou een betere match zijn. Een groot pluspunt? Choco is al helemaal zindelijk! 😊 Voor Choco zoeken we een liefdevolle thuis bij mensen die haar sociale karakter weten te appreciëren, maar ook bereid zijn om verder met haar aan de slag te gaan. Denk jij dat Choco bij jou past? Vul dan gerust het adoptieformulier in.

About Choco

What life with Choco looks like

Choco is a small young adult chihuahua dog waiting at Dierenasiel Ganzeweide in Veurne.

A young 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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Choco, answered.

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