How do I contact the shelter about Fell?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierenopvang Hart van Brabant handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Fell on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Fell if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierenopvang Hart van Brabant 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 Fell 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 Fell 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 Dierenopvang Hart van Brabant early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fell 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.

Fell

Chihuahua · Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Fell is a small energetic and affectionate mixed breed Chihuahua who was born on 04-03-2022. He is vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, dewormed, and de-fleaed. His stool was inconsistent while in the shelter, but he is now on a hypoallergenic diet which has resolved this issue. He also receives medication to reduce his anxiety. This medication may be reduced over time with training. Fell is a playful and affectionate dog who is already house trained. He is looking for a home with adult owners without children, other pets, or a busy social life. He needs a quiet place to relax after his walks. If you have a warm lap, a cozy spot on the couch, and the patience to understand and work with his behavior, please get in touch!

Ras: Kruising chihuahua Leeftijd: 04-03-2022 Medisch: Gevaccineerd, gecastreerd, gechipt, ontwormd en ontvlooid. Hier in de opvang was mijn ontlasting wat wisselend. Ik krijg nu hypo-allergene brokjes waarmee dit is opgelost. Verder krijg ik medicatie om de angst een beetje minder te laten zijn. In combinatie met training kan dit over een tijdje mogelijk worden afgebouwd. Karakter: Energiek, knuffelig, fel Zindelijk: Ja Hii allemaal, mijn naam is Fell. Ik ben een klein hondje met een groot karakter zullen we maar zeggen. Als ik iets spannend vindt en mijn emmertje loopt over, kan ik namelijk flink tekeer gaan. Ik heb mijn naam niet voor niets gekregen.. Voornamelijk andere honden vind ik reuze spannend, die probeer ik met zoveel mogelijk kabaal op afstand te houden. Maar als mijn emmertje overloopt en het wordt me allemaal teveel, dan moet alles wat beweegt eraan geloven. Het is belangrijk dat mijn nieuwe baasjes hier goed rekening mee houden. Mijn trainsters leggen je graag uit waar je op moet letten om te zien wanneer de spanning bij mij oploopt en hoe je hier het beste mee om kunt gaan. Drukke plekken en overal mee naartoe maak je mij echt niet gelukkig mee. Waar ik wel heel gelukkig van word is knuffelen en op schoot zitten. Zodra mijn vaste trainsters gaan zitten, zit ik er meteen bovenop. Daar kan ik dan heerlijk in slaap vallen en genieten van de aandacht. Ik ben dan ook een echt schoothondje. Ik zou het liefst bij volwassen mensen wonen zonder kinderen, andere dieren of een druk sociaal leven. Na alle spanning van de wandelingen buiten heb ik echt een plekje nodig om tot rust te komen. Heb jij een warme schoot, lekker plekje op de bank en het geduld om rekening te houden met mijn gedrag en hier samen mee aan de slag te gaan? Dan zou ik graag eens kennismaken!

About Fell

What life with Fell looks like

Fell is a large adult chihuahua dog waiting at Dierenopvang Hart van Brabant in Netherlands.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
