Adopt Poppie

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 5 years

Hi everyone, I'm Poppie! A sweet lady of 7.5 years old who would really like to find my forever home. I love snuggling, am friendly towards people and dogs as long as there aren't too many stimuli. Because as you may already see, I'm missing an eye, which means I see half as much and I therefore startle easily at movements. But they say here that I still look very cute. I am currently on the heavier side and also have difficulty walking, but they are slowly increasing my walks to fix this. If I'm not on a walk, I'm happily asking everyone for cuddles or looking for warm soft spots. Because of my poor vision, I'm looking for a calm, stimulus-free home without children or other animals. I like being with you and I really hate being alone for long. I'm also quite vocal and when someone, even if I don't know you yet, comes in, I get excited and happy. Maybe you think you're a match for me, then please contact me via responding to this animal.

Hoi allemaal, Ik ben Poppie! Een lieve dame van 7,5 jaar oud en zou heel graag mijn forever home willen vinden. Ik hou ontzettend veel van knuffelen, ben vriendelijk naar mens en hond mits er niet te veel prikkels zijn. Want zoals je misschien al ziet mis ik een oogje waardoor ik de helft minder zie en ik dus snel schrik van bewegingen. Maar ze zeggen hier dat ik er nog steeds schattig uit zie. Ik ben momenteel aan de zware kant en loop ook moeilijk, maar ze zijn langzaam mijn wandelingetjes aan het vergroten om dit te verhelpen. Als ik niet aan de wandel ben dan ben ik lekker bij iedereen kroeltjes aan het vragen of zoek ik warme zachte plekjes op. Vanwege mijn slechte zicht zoek ik een prikkelarm rustig huisje zonder kinderen of andere dieren. Ik ben graag bij je en zou het vreselijk vinden om lang alleen te blijven. Ook ben ik vrij vocaal en als er iemand, al ken ik je, binnenkomt ga ik joelen van blijdschap. Denkt u misschien een match te zijn met mij, neem dan contact op via reageer op dit dier.

About Poppie

What life with Poppie looks like

Poppie is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dierenasiel 't Julialaantje in Rijswijk.

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. Animals are routinely sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement.

Frequently asked

Adopting Poppie, answered.

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