Adopt Largo

Belgian Tervuren · Male · Adult · 4 years

About Adoption Lost/Found Help us Contact Largo is a wonderful dog with a strong character who has already been abandoned twice. He is looking for a family or a person without children. At the shelter, Largo shows affection towards the staff and volunteers who take care of him. However, he is very cautious with strangers. He can be protective. He loves walks but does not like to meet other dogs or cats. Largo will need calm, time, and someone who works with positive education. Knowledge of the breed is a plus. Several meetings will be necessary to get to know him. Once trust is established, he can become a real cuddle bug and a wonderful companion. At the shelter since 08/16/2022 (Return from adoption).

À propos À l'adoption Perdus/Trouvés Nous aider Contact > Largo est un magnifique loulou de caractère qui a déjà été abandonné deux fois. Il cherche une famille ou une personne seule, sans enfant. Au refuge, Largo se montre amitieux avec les soigneurs et les bénévoles qui ont l'habitude de s'en occuper. Il est par contre très méfiant avec les personnes inconnues. Il peut faire de la protection. Il adore les balades mais il n'aime pas croiser les chiens ni les chats. Largo aura besoin de calme, de temps et de quelqu'un qui travaille en éducation positive. Une connaissance de la race est un plus. Pour apprendre à le connaître, plusieurs présentations seront nécessaires. Une fois la confiance établie, il pourra devenir un véritable pot de colle et un formidable compagnon de vie. Au refuge depuis le 16/08/2022 (Retour d'adoption).

About Largo

What life with Largo looks like

Largo is a medium-sized adult belgian tervuren dog waiting at L'Arche de Noé ASBL - SPA Maisières in Mons.

An 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 Largo, answered.

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