Ginger

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Ginger werd als klein puppy alleen op straat gevonden in Argos. Ze liep gevaar doordat ze achterna gezet en werd door grotere honden en de hardrijdende auto’s die langs haar scheurden. Ze was erg bang, te jong om alleen te zijn. Een familie vond haar en nam haar tijdelijk op, zodat ze gevaccineerd kon worden en weer kon aansterken. Uiteindelijk moest ze naar de Laiza shelter en daar zit ze nu al een jaar. Ginger kan nogal verlegen zijn tegenover nieuwe mensen, ze heeft tijd nodig om ze te leren kennen en door hun aangeraakt kan worden. Ze loopt al heel netjes aan de lijn met haar vaste mensen en deed het onlangs zelfs heel goed met iemand die ze nog nooit eerder had ontmoet. Nu denkt de shelter dat ze toe is aan een eigen huisje, zolang het bij rustige en geduldige mensen zonder jonge kinderen is waar ze zich op haar tempo kan ontwikkelen. Ginger is een lieve die als ze je kent haar genegenheid toont. Ze kan een beetje brutaal zijn tegen de honden uit de buurt als er te veel actie is of tegen de duiven als ze in de buurt van het hondenvoer komen. Ze vindt haar eten lekker! Ze leeft samen met een andere hond in de kennel en is erg sociaal met haar. Naar katten is ze lief. Ginger zou het gezellig vinden als er al een hondenvriendje aanwezig is. Ze weegt 22 kg en is 52 cm hoog.

About Ginger

What life with Ginger looks like

Ginger is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mirtos Animal Project in Netherlands.

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 Ginger, answered.

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