Odette

Mixed Breed · Female

Odette is a 7-year-old, very smart and sweet girl. She loves to be around you all day, but she also loves having a companion. She is a Poodle mix (medium-sized Poodle), black and tan. At first, she may bark out of uncertainty, but once she knows you, she is always nearby. Odette was given up because her owners are away for many hours a day and she misses human interaction. This enthusiastic lady is spayed, housebroken, and in good health. She has no problem with children in her neighborhood. She is not familiar with cats, so we don't know how she will react to them. We are looking for a home where she will receive a lot of attention and won't be left alone for long. If you think she will be a good fit for you and can provide her with what she needs, please send an email to . Please include information about your living situation, expectations, and a phone number where you can be reached. We will then contact you by phone to discuss further. Odette, and we too, hope for a good match.

Odette is een superknap en lief meisje van 7 jaar. Het liefst is ze de ganse dag in je buurt, maar een soortgenootje is ook top. Ze is een mix Poedel (middenslagpoedel), kleur Black and tan. In het begin durft ze al eens te blaffen uit onzekerheid. Eens ze je kent, is ze altijd wel ergens in de buurt. Odette werd afgestaan doordat de mensen dagelijks vele uren van huis zijn en ze menselijk contact erg mist. Deze enthousiaste dame is gesteriliseerd, zindelijk en verkeert in goede gezondheid. Ze heeft geen probleem met kinderen in haar buurt. Katten kent ze (nog) niet, dus daar weten we nog niet van hoe ze daarop reageert. Voor haar zoeken we dus een thuis waar ze veel aandacht krijgt en niet lang alleen zal zitten. Denk je dat ze bij jou goed terecht zal komen en dat je haar kan bieden wat ze nodig heeft, stuur dan een mailtje naar . Deel hierin mee wat jouw woon- en leefsituatie is, je verwachtingen en een telefoonnummer waarop je kunnen bereiken. We nemen dan telefonisch contact met je op om het verder te bespreken. Odette, en wij ook uiteraard, hopen op een goeie match.

About Odette

What life with Odette looks like

Odette is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Het Dierenthuisje VZW in Geel.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Odette, answered.

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