Kaya

Old English Sheepdog · Female · Puppy

Kaya is a lively young female mix of Friese stabij and schapendoes, born on October 15, 2025. She is not pedigreed but is friendly with dogs, possibly with cats, and very child-friendly. She is house-trained and can run off-leash and travel in the car. Kaya is a smart and eager learner who quickly figures out how to get her treats. She listens well but is still in the process of learning. She is getting used to new sounds. She is not familiar with a crate but likes to lie under the table, although she is allowed on the couch. Kaya can already stay home alone for 3 to 4 hours, but this needs to be rebuilt. And what about being watchful? Yes, letting her owner know when someone is there. With a command, she barks again.

Naam: Kaya Ras: Friese stabij x schapendoes Geslacht: teef Geboortedatum: 15 oktober 2025 Stamboom: nee Kan bij honden: ja Kan bij katten: misschien Kan bij kinderen: ja Zindelijk: ja Kan loslopen: ja Kan in de auto: jaMag ik je Kaya voorstellen? Een dol enthousiaste jongeling van nog geen jaar, een vrolijke Friese stabij met een beetje schapendoes, te zien aan een paar krulletjes op haar lijf. Ze is heel goed met (jonge) kinderen maar soms wat onstuimig, daar ben je jong voor toch? Kaya is een slim beestje dat snel door heeft hoe ze aan haar koekjes komt, een leergierige die al goed luistert, maar natuurlijk nog volop in een leerproces zit. Ze leert al aardig om aan vreemde geluiden te wennen. Ze is niet bekend met een bench, ze ligt graag onder de tafel terwijl ze van de baas wel op de bank mag…Kaya kan al prima 3 à 4 uur alleen thuis zijn, natuurlijk moet dit wel opnieuw opgebouwd worden. Ach, en wat is waaks? Ja, aan de baas laten weten dat er iemand is. Met een commando is ze weer

About Kaya

What life with Kaya looks like

Kaya is a puppy/kitten old english sheepdog dog waiting at Stichting Zino in Netherlands.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇳🇱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 Kaya, answered.

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