Colette

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy

Heel goed meisje Welkom Colette Colette is een gevoelige jongedame, geboren in maart 2026 en ze komt oorspronkelijk uit Roemenië. Ze kwam terecht bij 2 zeer lieve baasjes die werkelijk alles voor haar over hadden. Echter, Colette vond de Franse Bulldog die al in huis verbleef, absoluut niet leuk. Hoe goed het bulldogje ook haar best deed, samen met haar mensenmaatjes, Colette veranderde niet van gedachte. Colette vindt dingen hier best spannend. We laten haar rustig met alle voor haar nieuwe dingen kennis maken. We hebben haar een anti ontsnappingstuigje omgedaan zodat ze niet uit haar tuigje kan ontsnappen. Vandaag was haar 2e rondje op ons asielveld en kijk, ze heeft al een wat meer open blik gekregen . Ze snuffelt, maakt kontakt met de mens en neemt stukjes Rodi worst aan. Jeuhhhhhh dat zijn best al veel stappen! Vooral niks forceren en goed blijven observeren wat ze wel en (nog) niet aan kan. Goed zo Colette! Hier in Oldenzaal is het goed vertoeven. Komt goed hoor en we hebben de tijd. Bij serieuze belangstelling en bij voorkeur een rustige plek bij mensen waar er nagenoeg altijd iemand thuis is (zeker de eerste maanden) mag u mailen of bellen. update: Trots op de dametje Colette Zooo bang was ze bij binnenkomst. Colette vond alles en iedereen dood eng. En kijk haar nu eens parmantig kijken. Ze laat zich al door meerdere mensen lekker kroelen en we hebben ook al korte wandelingen met haar gemaakt. Steeds weer een stapje verder. Colette is een teefje met een geschatte geboortedatum van 10 maart 2026 en we verwachten dat ze 45-48 cm hoog wordt.

About Colette

What life with Colette looks like

Colette is a puppy mixed breed dog waiting at DOC Oldenzaal in Netherlands.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — 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.

🇳🇱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 Colette, answered.

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