Max-2

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Dit is Max Max bracht de laatste jaren van zijn leven vastgebonden door en vergeten door zijn eigen mensen, die verhuisden en hem achterlieten. Ze vroegen iemand om hem te voorzien van eten en drinken en verder niets. Meer dan een jaar lang werd hij nooit losgemaakt en ging hij nooit wandelen. Tegen de tijd dat zijn verhaal Animal Zone International bereikte, was er al aangifte gedaan bij de politie. De politie hadden de omstandigheden waarin hij leefde geïnspecteerd, een boete opgelegd aan zijn eigenaar en daarmee was de zaak afgedaan. De eigenaar, hoewel hij gedwongen was terug te reizen om persoonlijk te verschijnen, liet hem opnieuw achter toen hij vertrok – dit keer sloot hij hem op in een kippenhok. Toen zei Animal Zone International: “Nu is het genoeg,” en vroegen ze of de hond aan hen overgedragen kon worden. Ondanks de verlating en verwaarlozing die Max heeft meegemaakt, is hij een ongelooflijk lieve ziel die altijd lacht en je met pure bewondering aankijkt, smekend om genegenheid. Max is geweldig tijdens wandelingen – hij trekt helemaal niet aan de lijn en loopt altijd rustig. Hij is erg sociaal, zachtaardig en staat te popelen om met andere honden te spelen. Katten achtervolgt hij en met kinderen is hij zachtaardig en kalm. Max verblijft nu in een asiel en kan als enige hond geplaatst worden. Hij weegt 30 kg.

About Max-2

What life with Max-2 looks like

Max-2 is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mirtos Animal Project in Netherlands.

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 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 Max-2, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Max-2?
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 Max-2 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Max-2 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 Max-2 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 Max-2 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 Max-2 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.
