Santosh

Male · Senior · 23 years

Meet Santosh, a 23-year-old gelding of about 1.50 meters tall. A tough-looking fellow with a soft heart. Santosh is a horse who isn't easily impressed. He stands firmly on his feet and comes across as self-assured. At the same time, beneath that tough exterior lies a sweet and sensitive character that you get to know when you take the time for him. He walks along nicely on a halter and lets himself be groomed calmly in the stable. Beyond that, he still has a lot to learn and discover, and he is still at the beginning of his training. For Santosh we are looking for someone who understands his tough appearance but also has an eye for his sensitive side. Someone who wants to guide him further with calm, clarity and patience, and who gives him the time to develop. Santosh deserves a loving home where he can be himself and where he can keep growing step by step. Do you think you could be the right match for Santosh? Feel free to contact us to get to know him better.

Maak kennis met Santosh, een 23-jarige ruin van ongeveer 1.50 meter hoog. Een stoere verschijning met een zacht hart. Santosh is een paard dat niet snel onder de indruk is. Hij staat stevig in zijn schoenen en komt zelfverzekerd over. Tegelijkertijd zit er onder die stoere buitenkant een lief en gevoelig karakter dat je leert kennen wanneer je de tijd voor hem neemt. Hij loopt braaf mee aan een halster en laat zich rustig poetsen in de stal. Voor de rest moet hij nog veel leren en ontdekken en staat hij nog aan het begin van zijn opleiding. Voor Santosh zoeken we iemand die zijn stoere uitstraling begrijpt, maar ook oog heeft voor zijn gevoelige kant. Iemand die hem met rust, duidelijkheid en geduld verder wil begeleiden en hem de tijd geeft om zich te ontwikkelen. Santosh verdient een liefdevol thuis waar hij zichzelf mag zijn en waar hij stap voor stap verder mag groeien. Denk jij dat jij de juiste match bent voor Santosh? Neem gerust contact met ons op om hem beter te leren kennen.

About Santosh

What life with Santosh looks like

Santosh is a senior horse waiting at Paard zoekt baas in Ambt Delden.

Adopting a horse is a long-term commitment that almost always requires either land or a boarding stable. The shelter will discuss the horse's training level, vet history, and what kind of work or companionship they're suited for. Expect ongoing costs: feed, farrier, vet, and stabling.

🇳🇱Adopting from Netherlands

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Santosh, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Santosh?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Paard zoekt baas handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Santosh on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Santosh if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a horse can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Paard zoekt baas what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Santosh already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a horse comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Paard zoekt baas directly what is included and what Santosh still needs.
What happens if Santosh 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 Paard zoekt baas early rather than rehoming privately; they know Santosh 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.
