Colin

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Lieve Colin ter adoptie Colin zit sinds maart 2025 bij ons in opvang, buiten met nog een hele hoop andere honden. Hij is gevonden bij de supermarkt. Heeft dus geleefd als straathond. Omdat de hondenvangers actief waren, is hij meegenomen in de auto en veilig gebracht. Hij wordt nu goed verzorgd en omdat het zo'n leuke hond is heeft hij nog kans op een mooie toekomst ook! Colin is een hele vriendelijke reu en staat als eerste bij het hek voor knuffels. Hij kan met andere honden en katten samen leven. Hij is vrolijk en sociaal in de roedel hier en doet het erg goed. Echt een hele lieve en sociale hond ook naar onbekende mensen.

About Colin

What life with Colin looks like

Colin is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Care 4 Shelter Dogs in NL-wide.

An 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 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 Colin, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Colin?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Care 4 Shelter Dogs handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Colin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Colin if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Care 4 Shelter Dogs 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 Colin 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 Colin 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 Care 4 Shelter Dogs early rather than rehoming privately; they know Colin 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.
