Adopt Sasha

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 6 years

Hi everyone, I'm Sasha, a Mechelse lady around 6 years old. I've been at the Streekdierentehuis het Julialaantje for longer than a year. For my first 4 years they don't know anything... I was found on the street. But I came in with very long nails and very little muscle, and I wasn't used to anything. With a lot of patience and love, I've become quite used to things now, but I still don't really know what to do with dogs 🤷‍♀️. That's why I'm also wearing a muzzle, which I don't mind at all. But even though they're nice here... I'm still looking for an own owner where I can go further nicely. I'm looking for someone who has a lot of time and patience for me, and also knows something about my breed. I like sniffing, but also long walks through the forest are lovely. I have tons of energy and am quite hyperactive, so you need to radiate calmness yourself, otherwise we'll be bouncing around the street 🫨. I'm starting to discover how nice cuddles are, and I'm asking for them now. I already know some basic commands, but I'm happy to learn more. Are you someone who would like to work with me, also likes walking and has a lot of time for me, then please contact the Streekdierentehuis 't Julialaantje.

Hoi allemaal, ik ben Sasha, een Mechelse dame van ongeveer 6 jaar oud. Ik zit nu langer dan 1 jaar in het Streekdierentehuis het Julialaantje. Van mijn eerste 4 jaar weten ze niks…ik ben op straat gevonden. Maar ik kwam binnen met hele lange nagels en heel weinig spieren, en ik was niks gewend. Met heel veel geduld en liefde ben ik nu al aardig wat gewend, maar van honden weet ik nog niet zo goed wat ik daar mee aanmoet🤷‍♀️. Daarom draag ik nu ook een muilkorf, wat ik verder helemaal niet erg vind hoor. Maar ook al zijn ze hier best lief enzo…ik ben toch op zoek naar een eigen baasje waar ik lekker verder mee aan de slag kan. Ik zoek iemand die heel veel tijd en geduld met me heeft, en ook wel verstand van mijn ras heeft. Speuren vind ik heel leuk, maar ook lange wandelingen door het bos vind ik heerlijk. Ik heb mega veel energie en ben best hyperdepyper, dus je moet zelf wel rust uitstralen, anders gaan we samen stuiterend over straat🫨. Ik begin te ontdekken hoe fijn knuffels zijn, en vraag daar nu ook om. Ik ken al wel wat basis commando's, maar leer graag nog meer. Ben jij nou iemand die graag met mij aan de slag wil, ook van wandelen houdt en veel tijd voor me heeft, neem dan contact op met het Streekdierentehuis 't Julialaantje. Hopelijk tot snel, Lieve lebbers van Sasha🥰

About Sasha

What life with Sasha looks like

Sasha 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 Sasha, answered.

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