Adopt Jeanne

Female · Young · 3 years

Jeanne is a truly lively and springy dog who immediately captures many hearts with her smile. Enthusiastic and affectionate, she will particularly appeal to those who love her breed. She enjoys human contact immensely and actively seeks out closeness. Moreover, Jeanne knows her basic commands well and shows herself to be sure to be obedient, loving, and extremely people-oriented with the right guidance. Behind her enthusiastic exterior lies a dog with a lot of potential. Jeanne is a strong lady who still has a lot to learn about her limits. During petting or cuddling, she can sometimes quickly go into overdrive, making her enthusiasm a bit too exuberant. On walks, she is still very alert to other dogs and needs further guidance to find more calm and focus. Therefore, we are looking for people with some dog experience who are willing to take her on and provide her with the necessary structure and guidance. Requires an experienced owner.

Jeanne is een echte vrolijke spring-in-’t-veld die met haar glimlach meteen vele harten verovert. Vooral liefhebbers van het ras zullen direct vallen voor haar enthousiaste en aanhankelijke karakter. Ze geniet enorm van menselijk contact en zoekt graag toenadering. Daarnaast kent Jeanne haar basiscommando’s goed en toont ze zich bij de juiste begeleiding zeker gehoorzaam, lief en enorm mensgericht. Achter haar enthousiaste kant zit dus absoluut een hond met veel potentieel. Jeanne is een krachtige dame die nog volop moet leren waar haar grenzen liggen. Tijdens het aaien of knuffelen kan ze soms snel in overdrive gaan, waardoor haar enthousiasme wat té uitbundig wordt. Ook op wandeling is ze nog erg alert naar andere honden en heeft ze nood aan verdere begeleiding om meer rust en focus te vinden. Daarom zoeken we voor Jeanne mensen met enige hondenervaring die bereid zijn om verder met haar aan de slag te gaan en haar de nodige structuur en begeleiding te bieden.

About Jeanne

What life with Jeanne looks like

Jeanne is a young adult dog waiting at Dierenasiel Gent in Gent.

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 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 Jeanne, answered.

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