How do I contact the shelter about Pluk?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Huis voor Dieren handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Pluk on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pluk if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Huis voor Dieren 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 Pluk 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 Pluk 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 Stichting Huis voor Dieren early rather than rehoming privately; they know Pluk 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.

Adopt Pluk

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Sometimes a little puppy will cross your path and crawl straight into your heart. Pluk is her name and she was found in a terrible Polish animal shelter, where she was completely overlooked. Pluk is, however, (almost) blind. She doesn't have any trouble finding her way around, but that would certainly cause trouble in a Polish animal shelter. Pluk wouldn't be able to fend for herself there. Life is tough there. Luckily, she was discovered and now she is safely in Almelo. And what a treasure she is… ♥ Pluk loves attention and she would love to be with you as much as possible. She also adores walking, but of course, she needs to know the way a bit. She will let you lead her, once she knows and trusts you. Pluk is truly a super sweet girl, just one year old, longing for her very own "human"! What happened to her is completely unclear to us, and sometimes it's better not to know. Our vet has checked Pluk thoroughly and declared her healthy. Her eyes work almost not at all. One eye is completely blind, and with her other eye, she can see a maximum of 5%. Pluk doesn't mind at all, as long as she is loved and gets attention, that is her only wish. Are you the one who will love her despite her visual limitations? Then contact us quickly to meet this sweet girl. Pluk is eagerly waiting! Call: 06-50800245 or fill out the form:

Soms komt er een hondje op je pad, die regelrecht je hart in kruipt. Pluk heet ze en ze werd gevonden in een vreselijk Pools asiel, waar ze volledig onder de voet werd gelopen. Pluk is namelijk (zo goed als) blind. Zelf heeft ze daar helemaal geen last van, want ze weet haar weg prima te vinden, maar in een Pools asiel is dat natuurlijk vragen om moeilijkheden. Pluk zou zich daar zelf niet kunnen redden. Het leven is daar loei hard. Gelukkig werd ze ontdekt en nu zit ze lekker veilig in Almelo. En wat een schatje is ze….♥ Pluk vindt het heerlijk om aandacht te krijgen en het liefst is ze dan ook veel bij je. Wandelen vindt ze ook geweldig. Natuurlijk moet ze wel de weg een beetje kennen, maar ze laat zich prima door jou leiden, als ze je eenmaal kent en vertrouwt. Pluk is echt een superlief meisje, net 1 jaar oud en hunkerend naar haar eigen “mens”! Wat er met haar gebeurd is, is voor ons volledig onduidelijk en soms is het ook maar beter dat je het niet weet. Onze dierenarts heeft Pluk helemaal bekeken en gezond verklaard. Haar oogjes werken dus nagenoeg helemaal niet. Aan 1 oogje is ze helemaal blind en met haar andere oogje ziet ze maximaal 5%. Pluk maakt het allemaal niets uit, zolang ze maar lief gevonden wordt en haar aandacht krijgt, dat is haar enige wens. Ben jij degene die haar wil liefhebben ondanks haar visuele beperking? Neem dan snel contact met ons op om kennis te maken met dit lieve meisje. Pluk wacht vol ongeduld! Bel: 06-50800245 of vul het formulier in:

About Pluk

What life with Pluk looks like

Pluk is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Huis voor Dieren in Netherlands.

An young 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.
