This handsome 6-year-old American Stafford is full of energy and zest for life! He is a cheerful, playful boy who loves walking, being active, and playing together. With him in the house, you won't be bored, because he is always up for a fun activity. For this enthusiastic fellow, we are looking for an experienced owner who enjoys going out with him, making time for him, and providing him with enough challenge and exercise. After all the adventures, there is of course also time to enjoy and relax together. Due to his character and needs, we do not place him with other pets or young children. We are therefore looking for a suitable home where he can get all the attention and be himself. If you would like more information or would like to meet him, please contact us.

About Franklin

What life with Franklin looks like

Franklin is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dierenasiel ter Marse / Stadskanaal in Netherlands.

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 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 Franklin, answered.

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