Male · Young · 3 years

Robert Robert (work name) – a beautiful "wolf" with a heart of gold! Height: 60 cm. Weight: 26 kg. Microchipped, neutered, vaccinated, and treated against parasites. Robert is an impressive dog to look at – his photos don't do him justice. In person he looks like a young wolf: strong, elegant, and proud. But behind that powerful appearance lies a gentle, sensitive soul. He walks nicely on the lead, enjoys walks, and likes riding along in the car. At the shelter he ate porridge with meat, but switching to quality dry food will certainly be no problem. About his character: Robert is friendly and sociable with people, without a trace of aggression. He sometimes barks at sounds outside the kennel, but he is never threatening or aggressive. He knows a few basic commands and listens well. He usually gets along well with other dogs, but only with dogs he already knows. He does guard his own food bowl – after all, he is a true leader. That's why we are looking for a family for him where he is the only dog, or where he can live with a calm female of medium or large size. He sees cats and small dogs as prey, so a home without small animals is most suitable. His story: Robert was found in a small town in Russia, weakened and exhausted. At the shelter he slowly lost his zest for life. When volunteers took him in, he blossomed completely. Now he shines again and is ready to find his true home. Robert is looking for a loving family that will give him stability, attention, and gentle guidance. He will shower his people with loyalty and affection – a true friend and faithful companion for life.

Robert Robert (werknaam) – een prachtige ‘wolf’ met een gouden hart! Hoogte: 60 cm. Gewicht: 26 kg. Gechipt, gecastreerd, gevaccineerd en behandeld tegen parasieten. Robert is een indrukwekkende hond om te zien – zijn foto’s doen hem geen recht. In het echt lijkt hij op een jonge wolf: sterk, elegant en trots. Maar achter dat krachtige uiterlijk schuilt een zachte, gevoelige ziel. Hij loopt mooi aan de lijn, geniet van wandelingen en rijdt graag mee in de auto. In het asiel at hij pap met vlees, maar de overstap naar kwalitatieve droge voeding zal zeker geen probleem zijn. Over zijn karakter:Robert is vriendelijk en sociaal met mensen, zonder een greintje agressie. Hij blaft soms naar geluiden buiten het hok, maar hij is nooit dreigend of aanvallend. Hij kent enkele basiscommando’s en luistert goed. Met andere honden gaat het meestal goed, maar enkel met honden die hij al kent. Zijn eigen voerbak verdedigt hij – hij is tenslotte een echte leider. Daarom zoeken we voor hem een gezin waar hij de enige hond is, of waar hij kan samenleven met een rustige teef van middelgroot of groot formaat. Katten en kleine honden ziet hij als prooi, dus een huis zonder kleine dieren is het meest geschikt. Zijn verhaal:Robert werd gevonden in een kleine stad in Rusland, verzwakt en uitgeput. In het asiel verloor hij langzaam zijn levenslust. Toen vrijwilligers hem meenamen, bloeide hij helemaal op. Nu straalt hij weer en is hij klaar om zijn echte thuis te vinden. Robert zoekt een liefdevol gezin dat hem stabiliteit, aandacht en zachte begeleiding wil geven.Hij zal zijn mensen overladen met trouw en genegenheid – een échte vriend en trouwe metgezel voor het leven.

About Robert

What life with Robert looks like

Robert is a large young adult dog waiting at Furever Home in Belgium.

A young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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). Shelters often include microchipping, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract, but confirm with the shelter what is covered. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Robert, answered.

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