Max

Pug · Male · Young · 2 years

Max zoekt een liefdevol thuis 🐾 Maak kennis met Max, een prachtige mopshond met een gouden hart. Max is een ontzettend lieve, speelse en aanhankelijke knuffelaar die graag bij zijn mensen is. Hij geniet van aandacht, spelletjes en natuurlijk van gezellige wandelingen. Max kan soms wat waaks zijn, maar hij is sociaal en kan goed overweg met andere honden én katten. Ook kleine kinderen vindt hij geweldig; hij geniet van hun gezelschap en speelt graag met hen. In zijn vorige thuis ging hij regelmatig mee naar de paarden, wat hij altijd heel leuk vond. Voor Max is het belangrijk dat hij voldoende beweging krijgt. Door medische redenen van zijn huidige baasje krijgt hij momenteel te weinig wandelingen. Hierdoor kan het gebeuren dat hij af en toe een ongelukje in huis heeft. Wanneer hij voldoende wordt uitgelaten, vormt dit geen probleem. Daarnaast kent Max zijn basiscommando's en luistert hij goed. Hij is op zoek naar een gezin of persoon die hem de tijd, aandacht en dagelijkse wandelingen kan geven die hij verdient. Ben jij op zoek naar een trouwe vriend die graag knuffelt, speelt en samen op avontuur gaat? Dan is Max misschien wel de perfecte match voor jou. ❤️🐶 Bij interesse gelieve het formulier in te vullen op onze website.

About Max

What life with Max looks like

Max is a small young adult pug dog waiting at Dierenasiel De Knuffelpootjes in Menen.

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 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 Max, answered.

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