How do I contact the shelter about Nala?

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

Can I adopt Nala if I live in another country?

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

Adopt Nala

Labrador Retriever · Female · Adult · 6 years

Can be with cats: no Can be with other dogs: no Can be with small children: no Can be with big children: yes Can be alone at home: yes Can be in the car: yes We would like to introduce you to Nala. Nala is a beautiful blonde lady who, due to a separation from her owners, is now looking for a new home. She came as a pup from Hungary to the Netherlands and has since lived with one family, together with some older children. With young children she can sometimes be a bit boisterous - not out of malice, but because she can just be a bit clumsy. Nala has a few things to be aware of for her new owner. She has an allergy to certain animal proteins. For this she currently gets special food, but with an elimination diet there are still steps to take. Certain types of fish she can tolerate, for example. She also gets preventive weekly ear drops to prevent complaints. With other dogs Nala is variable. If she feels uncertain or cannot properly assess the other dog, she can become aggressive. If a meeting is calm and positive, she can actually play a lot. This does require an owner who accompanies her and teaches her to relax while walking. Cats or other dogs in the house are not an option for Nala, and she can also react strongly to food around other animals and people. Clarity and consistent guidance are therefore important here. What does Nala give back to her new owner? A lot of joy! She loves cuddling, playing and going out together. She can stay alone at home for a couple of hours after getting used to it, and she doesn't have a problem with car rides. In short: Nala is looking for an experienced and stable owner who gives her structure and trust, so that she can show what a kind and loyal companion she is.

Kan bij katten: neeKan bij andere honden: neeKan bij kleine kinderen: neeKan bij grote kinderen: jaKan alleen thuis zijn: jaKan in de auto: ja We stellen jullie graag voor aan Nala. Nala is een prachtige blonde dame die, door een scheiding van haar eigenaren, nu op zoek isnaar een nieuw thuis. Ze kwam als pup vanuit Hongarije naar Nederland en heeft sindsdienbij één gezin gewoond, samen met wat oudere kinderen. Met jonge kinderen kan ze somswat onstuimig zijn – niet uit onwil, maar omdat ze gewoon wat lomp kan spelen. Nala heeft een paar aandachtspuntjes waar haar nieuwe baas rekening mee moet houden.Ze heeft een allergie voor bepaalde dierlijke eiwitten. Daarvoor krijgt ze nu specialevoeding, maar met een eliminatiedieet zijn er nog stappen te zetten. Bepaalde vissoortenverdraagt ze bijvoorbeeld wel. Ook krijgt ze preventief wekelijks oordruppels om klachtente voorkomen. Met andere honden is Nala wisselend. Als ze zich onzeker voelt of de ander niet goed kaninschatten, kan ze uitvallen. Gaat een kennismaking rustig en positief, dan kan ze juist heelleuk spelen. Dit vraagt wel om een eigenaar die haar daarin begeleidt en haar leert omontspannen te wandelen. Katten of andere honden in huis zijn voor Nala geen optie, en ookmet voedsel rondom andere dieren én mensen kan ze fel reageren. Hierbij is duidelijkheid enconsequente begeleiding dus belangrijk. Wat Nala haar nieuwe eigenaar teruggeeft? Heel veel vrolijkheid! Ze is dol op kroelen,spelen en samen op pad gaan. Alleen thuis blijven kan ze na gewenning prima een paaruurtjes, en autorijden vindt ze ook geen probleem.Kortom: Nala zoekt een ervaren en stabiele baas die haar structuur en vertrouwen geeft,zodat ze kan laten zien wat een lieve en trouwe maatje ze is.

About Nala

What life with Nala looks like

Nala is a small adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Dierentehuis Zeist in AA Austerlitz.

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.
