How do I contact the shelter about Moos?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Moos on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Moos if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden 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 Moos 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 Moos 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 Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden early rather than rehoming privately; they know Moos 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.

Moos

Female · Adult · 4 years

Hi! I'm Moos, born in 2018 in Romania and moved to the Netherlands three years later. My owner has unfortunately become ill and is no longer able to care for me. I am always happy and get very excited when I see people. Then I roll on the floor, do dances, want to kiss, everyone is always happy because of me. I only lose my sunny mood at the vet, terrible pulling and touching on my body. I like to sleep on the bed, nice and cozy next to my owner. My back is a sensitive, vulnerable spot. Because of my special body structure, I move a bit strangely. It would be nice if my owner takes this into account and for example provides steps, so I don't have to jump so high on the bed or couch. Who wants to take home a cheerful girl who brings a smile to your face every day? What else can I tell you about myself? Living with other dogs: Yes, I can get along well with other dogs as long as we fit well together. Living with cats: The neighbor cat went well, so there's no problem from my side. Living with children: I find older children fine, but I'm not used to small children. Being alone at home: For a few hours it's no problem. Type of living environment: I don't have a strong preference. Social with dogs outside: Yes, but I find large dogs a bit intimidating. Behavior on the leash: Good. Walking off-lead: Yes, I can proudly say that I listen well and was often allowed to walk off-lead in places where this was allowed. Riding in the car: I find it quite exciting. Play and training: I've never had any. Medical issues: Weak back and patellar luxation. Moos has been in our shelter since April 24, 2026. She is about 25 cm tall and weighs 6 kg.

Hoi! Ik ben Moos, geboren in 2018 in Roemenië en 3 jaar later ben ik naar Nederland verhuisd. Mijn baasje is helaas ziek geworden en niet meer in staat om voor mij te zorgen. Ik ben altijd blij en word heel enthousiast als ik mensen zie. Dan ga ik over de grond rollebollen, maak dansjes, wil zoenen, iedereen wordt altijd heel blij van mij. Ik raak alleen mijn zonnige humeur kwijt bij de dierenarts, vreselijk dat gefriemel aan mijn lijf. Ik slaap graag op bed, lekker knus tegen mijn baasje aan. Mijn rug is een gevoelige, kwetsbare plek. Door mijn bijzondere lichaamsgebouw beweeg ik wat vreemd. Het zou fijn zijn als mijn baasje daar rekening mee houdt en bijvoorbeeld zorgt voor opstapjes, dan hoef ik niet zo hoog op bed of bank te springen. Wie heeft er zin in een vrolijk meisje dat elke dag een glimlach op je gezicht tovert? Wat ik nog meer over mezelf kan vertellen? Met andere honden samenwonen : Ja hoor, ik kan goed met andere hondjes opschieten mits wij goed bij elkaar passen. Met katten samenwonen : De buurkat ging goed, dus van mijn kant is er geen probleem. Met kinderen samenwonen: Grote kinderen vind ik prima, maar kleine kinderen ben ik niet gewend. Alleen thuisblijven: Voor een paar uurtjes is dat geen probleem. Soort woonomgeving: Ik heb geen sterke voorkeur. Buiten sociaal met honden: Ja, maar grote honden vind ik wel een beetje spannend. Gedrag aan de lijn: Goed Kan loslopen: Ja, ik kan trots vertellen dat ik goed luister en vaak los mocht lopen op plekken waar dat toegestaan is. Mee met de auto: Vind ik best spannend. Spel en training: Heb ik nog nooit gehad. Medische aandachtspunten: Zwakke rug en patella luxatie. Moos verblijft sinds 24 april 2026 in onze opvang. Ze heeft een schofthoogte van ongeveer 25 cm en weegt 6 kg.

About Moos

What life with Moos looks like

Moos is a small adult dog waiting at Dierentehuis Stevenshage Leiden in Leiden.

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.
