Odin

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

🐾 Meet Odin 🐾 Birthdate: 29.08.2020 Breed: Stafford Sex: Male (neutered) Children: Yes (from 14 years) Odin was given up to us because his owners didn't have the time he needed. When he came to us, he had many bald spots due to a food allergy. Now he looks much better and is finally ready to find his golden bed. Behavior & Personality: Odin is a real go-getter and a people person. With a cookie and a fun tug game, you have this boy completely won over. Odin knows his basic commands and is eager to learn. On a walk, he is exemplary, only when he sees another dog does he pull. Odin enjoys cuddles and attention, that's the best part of his day. This boy still needs some further training. We have the impression that he has a bad association with leashing and we are working hard on this. Leashing is getting better, but we are looking for an experienced owner who can continue working with Odin on this. Odin feels very bad in his kennel, unfortunately, he is very overstimulated and can't find peace. The Odin outside his kennel is a night and day difference. Odin lived with children, but because of his issues, we prefer to place him with older children (from 14 years). What is Odin looking for? * An experienced owner, preferably with the breed * A garden, provided he does better with more space, an apartment is therefore not suitable for this boy * Someone who pays attention to his food allergy * An owner who wants to train with him and practice on quiet moments * A home where he is the only dog Medical: Odin's food allergy is well under control at the moment. He receives medication and hypoallergenic food twice a day. Type of animal: Dog Sex: Male Age: 29.08.2020

🐾 Maak kennis met Odin 🐾 Geboortedatum: 29.08.2020 Ras: Stafford Geslacht: Reu (gecastreerd) Kinderen : Ja (vanaf 14 jaar) Odin werd bij ons afgestaan omdat zijn baasjes niet de tijd hadden die nodig was voor hem. Toen hij bij ons kwam had hij veel kale plekken wegens een voedselallergie. Nu ziet hij er stukken beter uit en is hij eindelijk klaar voor zijn gouden mandje te vinden. Gedrag & Persoonlijkheid: Odin is een echt spring in het veld en een allemans vriend. Met een koekje en een leuk trekspel heb je deze jongen volledig voor jou gewonnen. Odin kent zijn basiscommando's en is leergierig. Op wandeling is hij voorbeeldig enkel wanneer hij een andere hond ziet trekt hij. Odin geniet van knuffels en aandacht, dat is voor hem de leukste bezigheid. Deze jongen heeft wel nog wat verdere opvoeding nodig. Zo hebben we de indruk dat hij een slechte associatie heeft met het aanlijnen en is daar werken we nu hard aan. Aanlijnen gaat dus al beter maar we zoeken wel een ervaren baasje dat hier met Odin verder aan kan werken. In zijn kennel voelt Odin zich zeer slecht helaas, hij is heel overprikkelt en kan moeilijk rust vinden. De Odin buiten zijn kennel is dus dag en nacht verschil. Odin leefde samen met kindjes maar omwille van zijn werkpuntjes plaatsen we hem liever bij iets oudere kindereren (vanaf 14j). Wat zoekt Odin? * Een ervaren baasje, liefst met het ras * Een tuin mits hij het beter doet met meer ruimte, een appartement is dus helaas niet geschikt voor deze jongen * Iemand die let op zijn voedselallergie * Een baasje dat met hem wil trainen en wil oefneen op rust momenten * Een thuis waar hij de enige hond is Medisch: Odin zijn voedselallergie is mooi onder controle op dit moment. Hij krijgt hiervoor 2x per dag medicatie en hypoallergene voeding. Soort dier: Hond Geslacht: Mannelijk Leeftijd: 29.08.2020

About Odin

What life with Odin looks like

Odin is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst in Belgium.

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 Odin, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Odin?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Odin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Odin if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Odin 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 Odin 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 Pootjesparadijs Dierenopvangcentrum Zemst early rather than rehoming privately; they know Odin 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.
