Oskar

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Oscar was found in a warehouse in a village where people are not kind to stray animals, along with his mother and siblings. Many stray animals die from poisoned food, so they decided to take the dogs in. The mother has since been spayed. Oscar is a sweet, cheerful and playful boy. He gets along well with people and children. He is very affectionate with the other dogs. Due to his breed, Oscar has a lot of energy, so he needs plenty of exercise and this must be taken into account. It is unknown how Oscar reacts to cats. Oscar weighs 20 kg and is 48 cm tall.

About Oskar

What life with Oskar looks like

Oskar is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Mirtos Animal Project in Netherlands.

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. Many animals are sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement, but confirm with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Oskar, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Oskar?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Mirtos Animal Project handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Oskar on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Oskar if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Mirtos Animal Project whether they will for Oskar, what they require (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 Oskar already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Mirtos Animal Project lists Oskar as neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Mirtos Animal Project, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Oskar isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Mirtos Animal Project about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Oskar 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.
