Adopt Koko

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 6 months

Koko – Een zachtaardige ziel op zoek naar een rustig en liefdevol thuis Koko is een grote, liefdevolle hond geboren op 07/02/2017. Ze verblijft al jarenlang in een buitenlands asiel, wat haar wat nerveus heeft gemaakt. Toch schuilt er achter haar verlegenheid een hartverwarmende en tedere persoonlijkheid. Ze is gesteriliseerd en volledig klaar voor adoptie. Koko houdt van lange wandelingen en knuffels, maar ze is geen fan van katten. Ze heeft tijd nodig om vertrouwen op te bouwen met mensen en andere honden. Haar ideale thuis ligt in een rustige, landelijke omgeving met een grote tuin—een plek waar ze kalm en liefdevol begeleid wordt. Haar droomgezin bestaat uit iemand die haar op een zachte manier helpt om open te bloeien en haar het leven geeft dat ze verdient. Met geduld en zorg zal Koko uitgroeien tot een trouwe en aanhankelijke metgezel. P.S. Koko is een zachtaardige ziel die enkel tijd en liefde nodig heeft—klaar om een thuis te vinden waar ze echt kan opbloeien. Al onze dieren worden gecontroleerd door een erkende dierenarts voordat ze naar België reizen.

About Koko

What life with Koko looks like

Koko is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Nalas Friends in Ghent.

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 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 Koko, answered.

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