Adopt Senna

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Adult · 7 years

Hi everyone, my name is Senna! I am a sweet lady of 7 years old and a huge cuddler. When you are sitting on the couch, I like to come and take a part of your couch for myself. I am a big loveable dog of about 35 kg. I know the basic commands well and children are no problem. Leaving me alone at home needs to be built up slowly, but I can't be kept in a crate. I have been in foster care for a while now and it's going really well, and I can also be alone for a while. I like to play and go on long walks. I absolutely hate cats and don't want anything to do with them. Other dogs are sometimes fun and sometimes not. Sometimes I can be a bit strong and someone who stands firmly on their feet is a must. I'm pretty happy in foster care, but I've been here for a while already and I'm actually hoping for a permanent bed that I can really call mine. Do you have a spot for me and do you think you might be a match? Then contact the animal shelter.

Hoi allemaal, mijn naam is Senna! Ik ben een lieve dame van 7 jaar oud en een enorme knuffelaar. Als je op de bank zit kom ik er graag bij en neem zo een deel van je bank voor mezelf. Ik ben grote lieverd van ongeveer 35 kg. Ik beheers de basiscommando's goed en kinderen zijn geen probleem. Alleen thuis laten moet langzaam worden opgebouwd, maar ik kan niet in een bench worden opgesloten. Inmiddels zit ik al een tijdje in pleeggezin waar het hartstikke goed gaat en ik ook best even alleen kan zijn. Ik vind het leuk om te spelen en lange wandelingen te maken. Katten vind ik absoluut niks en moet daar ook niks van hebben. Andere honden zijn de ene keer wel leuk en de andere keer niet. Soms kan ik best een beetje sterk zijn en is iemand die stevig in de schoenen staat een vereiste. Ik heb het best naar mijn zin in het pleeggezin, maar ik zit hier ook al best een tijdje en hoop ondertussen eigenlijk ook wel op een vaste mand die ik echt de mijne kan noemen. Heeft u een plek voor mij en denkt u misschien een match te zijn? Neem dan contact op met het asiel.

About Senna

What life with Senna looks like

Senna 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 Senna, answered.

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