Adopt Humpie

Female · Young · 2 years

Though I may be small, I sure have plenty of personality! And even though I have my big friend Kieks, I'm a bit braver and less scared now. But I still get scared a little quicker. We really are a package deal; I can't imagine life without him. We're still a bit practicing being more independent, but it's going very well! Who wants to meet us?

Ik mag dan klein zijn, karakter heb ik genoeg! En anders heb ik altijd mijn grote vriend Kieks nog. Door hem ben ik een stuk stoerder en minder bang geworden maar ik schrik nog steeds wat sneller. We zijn wel echt een package deal, ik kan me geen leven zonder hem voorstellen. We zijn nog een beetje aan het oefenen met zindelijk worden, maar dat gaat al heel goed! Wie wil ons ontmoeten?

About Humpie

What life with Humpie looks like

Humpie is a small young adult dog waiting at DOA Dierenasiel Amsterdam in Amsterdam.

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 Humpie, answered.

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