PRINCESSE

Belgian Malinois · Female · Young · 1 year

Hello, I'm Princesse, an adorable one-and-a-half-year-old Malinois. My former owners took care of me and my sister since we were puppies, but over time it became impossible for them to look after the two of us together, so they had to make a very difficult decision and entrusted me to the shelter, in the hope that I could find a good home where I can give all my love and loyalty as a good dog. I am very, very sweet and well-mannered, but since I am protective of my people, I prefer to be the only dog in the family.

Bonjour, je suis Princesse, une adorable Malinois d'un an et demi. Mes anciens maîtres ont pris soin de moi et de ma sœur depuis qu'on est chiot, mais avec le temps il ne leur était plus possible de s'occuper de nous deux ensemble, donc ils ont dû prendre une décision très difficile et m'ont confié au refuge dans le but que je puisse retrouver une bonne maison où je pourrait donner tout mon amour et fidélité de bon chien. Je suis très très gentille et bien éduquée, mais comme je suis protectrice envers mes maîtres, je préfère être le seul chien de la famille.

About PRINCESSE

What life with PRINCESSE looks like

PRINCESSE is a young adult belgian malinois dog waiting at Refuge pour Chiens in Marche-en-Famenne.

A 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 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 PRINCESSE, answered.

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