Lovey

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Lovey was found in a field, far from civilization, with some other puppies. It's likely that someone abandoned her there to get rid of her. Luckily, some people came along and took Lovey and the other puppies with them. She is now in a small shelter. Lovey is a happy and playful girl who is friendly to everyone. She is very gentle with other dogs. She is unfamiliar with cats and children. She weighs 20 kg at the moment (end of April 2024) and is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog of around 25 kg. Of course, this is an estimate because her parents are unknown and it could be slightly different in reality.

Lovey werd samen met wat andere pups gevonden in een veld, ver van de bewoonde wereld. Waarschijnlijk hebben mensen haar daar achter gelaten om maar van haar af te zijn. Gelukkig kwamen er mensen langs en hebben Lovey en de andere pups meegenomen. Ze verblijft nu in een kleinschalige shelter. Lovey is een vrolijk en speels meisje die vriendelijk tegen iedereen is. Naar de andere honden is zij erg lief. Katten en kinderen zijn onbekend voor haar. Zij weegt op dit moment (eind april 2024) 20 kg en de verwachting is dat zij zal uitgroeien tot een middelmaat van rond de 25 kg. Natuurlijk is dit een schatting omdat vader en moeder onbekend zijn en kan dit in werkelijkheid iets afwijken.

About Lovey

What life with Lovey looks like

Lovey is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mirtos Animal Project in Netherlands.

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 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 Lovey, answered.

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