Frankie

Male · Adult · 3 years

Ras: Canis Vulgaris (= kruising) Geboortedatum: 27/01/2023 Geslacht: reu Steriel: ja Zindelijk: ja Kan alleen blijven: ja Kan mee in de auto: ja Andere honden: nee Katten: nee Kinderen: nee Helloookes allemaal ! Mogen wij u niet zonder trots introduceren bij meneer FRANKIE 🙂 Een kereltje met een gebruiksaanwijzing. (hebben we dat niet allemaal?) Maar eens je zijn “do’s en don’t’s” kent, heb je een prachtig vriendje voor het leven ! Frankie is een speelse, vrolijke kerel die het liefst van al op lange, rustige snuffelwandelingen gaat maar zijn neus niet optrekt voor een wat meer avontuurlijke tocht over berg en dal ! Zolang die trip/wandeling niet met (kleine) kids is, lukt dat prima. Dat is een aandachtspunt : GEEN kleine kids met hun onvoorspelbare en luide manieren… Nog een klein aandachtspuntje : knuffelen met uw madam… best zonder hem, want hij kiest sowieso de zijde van mevrouw ( 😀 ) en zal dat direct duidelijk maken! Maar als je daar rekening mee houdt, heb je een speelmaatje in de tuin die trouw en rustig op je kan wachten tot je weer thuis bent ! (ps : zo een stiekeme knuffel stelen bij uw wederhelft… spannend toch 😉 ) Ook al gevallen voor zijn guitige snoeter? Laat t ons maar snel weten !

About Frankie

What life with Frankie looks like

Frankie is a adult dog waiting at vzw Helping Dogs in Belgium.

An 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 Frankie, answered.

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