James

Male · Senior · 9 years

Superlieve goedzak heeft gewoon een beetje pech gehad. James is zijn naam en hij had een fantastisch huisje in het noorden van ons land. Helaas is zijn baasje ziek geworden en met heel veel pijn en verdriet, heeft hij afstand moeten doen van James. Puur uit liefde, want het lukt hem niet meer James zelf uit te laten en te verzorgen. Hij wil het allerbeste voor zijn maatje. James is dus op zoek naar een nieuwe gouden mand, iemand die weer net zoveel van hem wil houden. Hij is superlief en wil heel graag bij je zijn. Hij is superlief met andere honden, maar katten ziet hij als speelgoed, dus hij wordt daarom niet bij katten geplaatst. Verder is hij rustig qua karakter, sloopt niet, is zindelijk en wandelt heel graag. Heb jij nog een plaatsje op de bank voor hem en zoek jij een gezellige huisgenoot, dan heb je aan James de allerbeste. Laat je een berichtje voor hem achter?

About James

What life with James looks like

James is a senior dog waiting at Stichting Huis voor Dieren in Netherlands.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇳🇱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 James, answered.

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