How do I contact the shelter about Diva?

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 Diva on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Diva 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 Diva 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 Diva 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 Diva 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.

Diva

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

Diva is a very sweet Staffordshire Bull Terrier, 12 years and 8 months old. Despite her age, she still has plenty of love to give and clearly enjoys attention and companionship. She is a big cuddler and loves to be as close to people as possible. Diva likes to curl up on your lap, but she also loves to lie next to you. As long as she can be near her people, she is content. She is a true companion dog who especially wants to be part of the family. Diva is still playful despite her age. She can enjoy a fun playtime, but then she just as happily comes to lie down next to you. Diva gets along well with other dogs. Because of her age and her limited sight and hearing, it is important that she is approached calmly and with some extra understanding. She is blind in one eye, has cataracts in her other eye, and has some hearing loss. A predictable environment where she is not constantly surprised would be very nice for her. We are looking for a loving home for Diva where she can spend her golden years. A place where she gets lots of love, attention, and cuddles, and where she can be close to her people. ✓ Huge cuddler ✓ Likes to lie down with you or on your lap ✓ Gets along well with other dogs ✓ Still playful ✓ 12 years and 8 months old ✓ Blind in one eye, cataracts in the other eye, and some hearing loss Diva may have some age-related health issues, but her heart is still young. ❤️ She deserves a warm home where she can fully enjoy her old age, with her favorite people close by. Are you the one who can give Diva her well-deserved golden bed? 🐾 Vroenhoutseweg 37 4703 SH Roosendaal Tel.

NL·Show original

Diva is een ontzettend lieve Stafford van maar liefst 12 jaar en 8 maanden oud. Ondanks haar leeftijd heeft ze nog genoeg liefde te geven en geniet ze zichtbaar van aandacht en gezelligheid. Ze is een enorme knuffelkont en het liefst zo dicht mogelijk bij mensen. Diva kruipt graag bij je op schoot, maar vindt het ook heerlijk om lekker naast je te liggen. Zolang ze maar in de buurt van haar mensen kan zijn, is ze tevreden. Ze is een echte gezelschapshond die vooral heel graag onderdeel wil zijn van het gezin. Diva is ondanks haar leeftijd ook nog lekker speels. Ze kan genieten van een gezellig speelmomentje, maar vindt het daarna net zo fijn om weer lekker bij je te komen liggen. Diva kan goed overweg met andere honden. Door haar leeftijd en haar beperkte zicht en gehoor is het wel belangrijk dat ze rustig en met wat extra begrip wordt benaderd. Ze is aan één oog blind, aan haar andere oog heeft ze staar en ze hoort wat minder goed. Een voorspelbare omgeving waarin ze niet steeds wordt verrast, zou daarom heel fijn voor haar zijn. Voor Diva zoeken we een liefdevol thuis waar ze haar gouden jaren mag doorbrengen. Een plek waar ze vooral heel veel liefde, aandacht en knuffels krijgt en waar ze lekker dicht bij haar mensen mag zijn. ✓ Enorme knuffelkont ✓ Ligt graag bij je of op schoot ✓ Kan goed overweg met andere honden ✓ Nog lekker speels ✓ 12 jaar en 8 maanden oud ✓ Aan één oog blind, aan het andere oog staar ✓ Wat slechthorend Diva heeft misschien wat meer ouderdomskwaaltjes, maar haar hart is nog altijd jong. ❤️ Ze verdient een warm thuis waar ze volop mag genieten van haar oude dag, met haar favoriete mensen dichtbij. Ben jij degene die Diva haar welverdiende gouden mandje kan geven? 🐾 Vroenhoutseweg 37 4703 SH Roosendaal Tel.

About Diva

What life with Diva looks like

Diva is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Het Dierenhuis in Netherlands.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇳🇱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.
