Sandy

Mixed Breed · Female

Sandy is my name and I am a lovely young lady from Bulgaria, looking for my lucky break here. I am not a gold digger, but I am searching for a loving person who has a spot on the couch for me. Together with my brother and 2 sisters, I came to the Netherlands because the future in Bulgaria didn't look so great for me. We were well taken care of, but adoption wasn't an option. Who knows, it might work out here. My brother already had his lucky break and has already left for his forever home. He likes it there and has made it clear he won't be coming back. Now it's my turn. They say I'm beautiful, sweet, and funny. That flatters me. I now live with my foster mom, along with 2 more puppies. That's very cozy, but I also like it when I get all the attention. So if you already have puppies, that's fine, but it's not a must. My requirements package isn't so big. I'm looking for someone with some experience, because I still have to learn a few things. That's something I find very exciting; I'm eager to learn. But I can already do a lot. I walk very nicely on a leash, but sometimes I'm still a bit scared of unknown situations. But if you're with me, everything will be okay and I'll learn from you too. I can also stay home alone for a while, no problem. I also like to play with cuddly toys and a tug rope, and I have fun with them all by myself. By now, I also know that I have to go outside to do my business. My foster mom was very proud of that. Now I'm looking for a definitive mommy (or daddy, or both) who will love me, teach me things, and be a little patient with me. I'll be very loving and give lots of cuddles. Are you coming to meet me soon? Call: 06-50800245 or fill out the form:

Sandy is mijn naam en ik ben een leuke jonge dame uit Bulgarije, die hier haar geluk zoekt. Ik ben geen golddigger hoor, maar ik zoek een lief persoon die een plekje op de bank voor me heeft. Samen met mijn broertje en 2 zussen ben ik naar Nederland gekomen omdat de toekomst in Bulgarije voor mij er niet zo best uit zag. Er werd wel goed voor ons gezorgd hoor, maar kans op adoptie was er niet. Wie weet lukt het wel in Nederland. Mijn broertje heeft al geluk gehad en is al vertrokken naar zijn forever home. Het bevalt hem daar prima en hij heeft laten weten dat hij daar ook blijft en niet meer terug komt. Nu ben ik aan de beurt. Ze zeggen dat ik mooi ben, lief en grappig. Dat streelt me wel hoor. Ik woon nu bij mijn pleegmama, samen met nog 2 hondjes. Dat vind ik heel gezellig, maar ik vind het ook leuk als ik alleen aandacht krijg. Dus als je al hondjes hebt, is dat prima, maar hoeft niet perse. Mijn eisenpakketje is niet zo groot. Ik zoek iemand die al wat ervaring heeft, want ik moet nog wel dingetjes leren. Dat vind ik wel heel leuk hoor, ik ben leergierig. Maar ik kan ook al veel hoor. Ik loop heel netjes aan de lijn, alleen schrik ik soms nog van onbekende situaties. Maar als jij dan bij me bent, komt het goed en dan leer ik ook weer van jou. Ik kan ook al even alleen thuis blijven, goed he. Ik vind het ook leuk om te spelen met knuffels en een trektouw, daar vermaak ik me ook gewoon helemaal alleen mee. Inmiddels weet ik ook dat ik buiten mijn plasjes moet doen. Daar was mijn pleegmama heel trots op. Nu zoek ik een definitieve mama (of papa, of allebei) die van me gaan houden, me dingetjes willen leren en die dan ook een beetje geduld met me willen hebben. Ik zal heel lief zijn en heel veel knuffels geven. Kom je gauw kennismaken? Bel: 06-50800245 of vul het formulier in:

About Sandy

What life with Sandy looks like

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

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 Sandy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sandy?
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 Sandy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sandy 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 Sandy 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 Sandy 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 Sandy 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.
