Nora is gereserveerd

Dachshund · Female · Adult · 8 years

My name is Nora. As for exactly where I come from and everything I’ve been through, I can’t tell you—so my caregivers can only guess. Still, they do believe that on the one hand, I’ve experienced too much, and on the other hand, not nearly enough. I probably used to live with another dachshund, though I’m not entirely sure. When I was picked up, I was in a bare kennel—with no blanket and no water. Very occasionally, I’d be allowed out for a short while, but since I’m not potty-trained, that didn’t happen very often. I never learned how to be potty-trained, nor did I ever learn to go for walks outside. I was 3.5 kilos overweight, but I’ve since lost those extra pounds. Because I drank so much, I also urinated frequently, so I underwent a medical examination—but the doctors couldn’t find any underlying cause for my frequent urination. Now I drink normal amounts, so my caregivers think I drank so much because I wasn’t used to having water always available. Things are much better now, and I’m able to relieve myself outdoors far more often than indoors. That’s still something we’ll need to work on at my new home, and they’re not ready to promise whether I’ll ever fully master it. I absolutely love other dogs, and I definitely need a “support dog” to help me realize that the world isn’t as scary as I think it is. I’m eight years old and looking for a home without children, because kids are far too busy and unpredictable for me. I’m also looking for people who have experience with dachshunds, who already have at least one other dog, and who are willing to be extremely patient with me, since I’m still learning about the world (all over again). Could you possibly be my new rock-solid companion? If so, please get in touch with my caregivers by sending an email—and don’t forget to include your phone number.

Nora is de naam. Waar ik precies vandaan kom en wat ik allemaal heb meegemaakt kan ik niet vertellen dus daar kunnen mijn verzorgers alleen maar naar raden. Wel zijn ze van mening dat ik aan de ene kant te veel en aan de andere kant te weinig heb meegemaakt. Ik heb vermoedelijk samen gewoond met een andere teckel maar helemaal zeker is dat niet. Toen ik opgehaald werd zat ik in een kale bench, geen kleedje en geen water. Heel soms mocht ik er even uit maar omdat ik niet zindelijk ben, gebeurde dat niet zo vaak. Ik heb nooit geleerd zindelijk te zijn en ook niet om buiten te wandelen. Ik was 3,5 kilo te zwaar maar die kilo’s ben ik inmiddels kwijt. Omdat ik heel erg veel dronk, plaste ik ook heel veel dus ik ben medisch onderzocht maar de dokters kunnen geen reden vinden voor mijn vele plassen. Inmiddels drink ik normale hoeveelheden dus mijn verzorgers denken dat ik zo veel dronk omdat ik niet gewend was altijd water beschikbaar te hebben. Inmiddels gaat het dus veel beter met me en doe ik mijn behoefte veel vaker buiten dan binnen. Dit is nog wel een werkpunt voor in mijn nieuwe huis en of ik het uiteindelijk helemaal door zal krijgen willen ze hier niet beloven. Ik ben dol op andere honden en ik heb zeker een “hulphond” nodig om mij te laten zien dat de wereld niet zo eng is als ik denk. Ik ben acht jaar oud zoek een huis zonder kinderen want die zijn veel te druk en onvoorspelbaar voor mij. Ook zoek ik mensen die ervaring hebben met teckels, waar minimaal één andere hond aanwezig is en die bereid zijn heel veel geduld met mij te hebben omdat ik de wereld (opnieuw) moet leren kennen. Bent u wellicht mijn nieuwe rots in de branding? Neem dan contact met mijn verzorgers op door een mail te sturen naar en vergeet niet uw telefoonnummer te vermelden.

About Nora is gereserveerd

What life with Nora is gereserveerd looks like

Nora is gereserveerd is a adult dachshund dog waiting at Dierenasiel Crailo in Hilversum.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nora is gereserveerd, answered.

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