Oxo

German Shepherd · Male · Adult · 8 years

Vous cherchez le compagnon idéal? Oxo est pour vous! Âgé de 8 ans, ce magnifique berger allemand a toutes les qualités : gentil, propre, sachant rester seul plusieurs heures (mais ayant besoin de se dépenser, c'est un berger allemand! ), entente ok avec les chiens (à voir avec enfants et chats). S'il a besoin de se déplacer au quotidien, il sait aussi rester calmement près de ses maîtres dont il aime recevoir de l'affection. De nature curieuse (une porte s'ouvre, il y va), il n'est ni voleur, ni fugueur. Il tire un peu parfois, mais c'est là aussi sa curiosité qui parle. Cerise sur le gâteau : Oxo n'aboie presque pas!

About Oxo

What life with Oxo looks like

Oxo is an adult german shepherd dog waiting at HumanIma ASBL in Ottignies (Brabant Wallon).

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 Oxo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Oxo?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. HumanIma ASBL handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Oxo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Oxo if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — HumanIma ASBL 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 Oxo 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 Oxo 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 HumanIma ASBL early rather than rehoming privately; they know Oxo 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 (FR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
