Napoleon

Male · Young · 1 year

Napoleon here—the toughest guy in the kennel. I love eating and chilling—and yeah, that’s pretty much it. Oh, wait—I almost forgot about cuddling! A scratch behind the ears is always warmly welcomed. I’m looking for a girlfriend with the same hobbies as me—preferably a single lady, because I’m all about monogamy!

Napoleon hier, de stoerste kerel in de kennel. Ik houd van eten en chillen en.. ja dat is het eigenlijk wel zo’ beetje. Ohnee ik vergeet knuffelen! Een aai over m’n bol is altijd van harte welkom. Ik zoek een vriendin met dezelfde hobbies als ik, liefst een single dame, ik ben namelijk wel van de monogamie!

About Napoleon

What life with Napoleon looks like

Napoleon is a young adult dog waiting at DOA Dierenasiel Amsterdam in Amsterdam.

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 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 Napoleon, answered.

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