Moose

Male · Adult · 4 years

A sweet, confident, young guy. Moose was living on a farm in Croatia with a pack of dogs and wasn’t quite finding his place there. He loves peace and routine, and sometimes he found the restless dogs a bit annoying—and he’d let them know, in a polite way. The caregiver found it hard to deal with this and asked Liz for help. That’s how Moose ended up with us. After spending a year and a half in a home, Moose has now returned to us once again. Sometimes life takes turns we don’t expect, and in this case, the circumstances at his previous home have changed so drastically that they could no longer provide him with the care and guidance he needs. With much love, we’ve therefore made the difficult decision to bring Moose back, so that we can once again start looking for a place that better matches what he requires. Right now, we’re giving Moose time to settle down again in peace. At the same time, we’re helping him learn better ways to cope with stimuli and situations that he finds exciting. Through targeted training, clear structure, and consistent guidance, we’re helping him step by step build more calmness and confidence. Moose is looking for a home—preferably one with a garden. He’d love sporty owners! He enjoys long walks, but he’d also absolutely love cycling, hiking, running, and more. If you’re looking for an active companion for life, then Moose is “your guy”! Important characteristics of Moose are: Energy level: High Intelligence: High Self-confidence: High Self-awareness: High Perseverance: Average When adopting a dog, it’s important that you yourself score higher than—or at least equal to—the dog you’re considering adopting, to ensure that a good match can be made. Breed: Crossbreed Gender: Male – neutered Date of birth: 14-04-2022 Size: Large Commands: Sit, stay, come here, in the basket, no, calm down, stay Put. House-trained: Yes Health check: Vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed Can travel by car: Yes Can’t adopt Moose but would still like to support him? Click here and become a sponsor today!

Leuke, zelfverzekerde, jonge vent. Moose zat op een boerderij in Kroatië met een roedel honden en kon zijn draai niet helemaal vinden. Hij houdt van rust en regelmaat en de onrustige honden vond hij soms wat vervelend en vertelde ze dit dan ook, op een nette manier. De verzorgster vond het moeilijk hiermee om te gaan en vroeg Liz om te helpen. Zo is Moose bij ons terechtgekomen. Na anderhalf jaar in een thuis te hebben gehad, is Moose weer bij ons teruggekomen. Soms lopen dingen in het leven anders dan verwacht, en in dit geval zijn de omstandigheden van zijn vorige thuis zodanig veranderd dat zij hem niet langer de zorg en begeleiding konden bieden die hij nodig heeft. Met veel liefde is daarom de moeilijke beslissing genomen om Moose terug te laten keren, zodat wij opnieuw op zoek kunnen gaan naar een plek die beter aansluit bij wat hij nodig heeft. Momenteel geven we Moose de tijd om weer rustig te landen. Tegelijkertijd begeleiden we hem in het beter leren omgaan met prikkels en situaties die hij spannend vindt. Met gerichte training, duidelijke structuur en begeleiding helpen we hem stap voor stap om meer rust en vertrouwen te ontwikkelen. Moose zoekt een huis, liefst met een tuin. Sportieve baasjes zou hij tof vinden. Hij houdt van lange wandelingen, maar ook fietsen, hiken, rennen, etc. zou hij fantastisch vinden! Als je een actief maatje voor het leven zoekt, dan is Moose 'your guy'! Belangrijke kenmerken van Moose zijn: Energielevel: HoogIntelligentie: HoogZelfvertrouwen: HoogZelfbewustzijn: HoogVasthoudendheid: Gemiddeld Het is bij een adoptie belangrijk dat je zelf hoger dan of gelijk aan de hond die je wil adopteren scoort, om ervoor te zorgen dat er een passende match uit kan voortvloeien. Ras: ​ ​ ​Kruising Geslacht: ​ ​Reu - gecastreerd Geboortedatum: ​14-04-2022 Formaat: ​ ​Groot Bevelen: Zit, af, kom hier, in de mand, nee, rustig, blijf Zindelijk: Ja Keuring: ​ Gevaccineerd, gechipt, ontwormd Kan mee in de auto: ​Ja Kan je Moose niet adopteren, maar wil je hem wel steunen?

About Moose

What life with Moose looks like

Moose is a large adult dog waiting at Stichting Animals Faith in Netherlands.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Moose, answered.

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