Sjoet

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Sjoet is een 5-jarige, grote kruising met een bijzonder verhaal. Toen hij in het asiel kwam, vond hij alles ontzettend spannend. Hij had tijd nodig om te wennen en het vertrouwen in mensen terug te vinden. Met veel geduld, rust en liefde hebben we hem zien uitgroeien tot de vrolijke hond die hij vandaag is. Sjoet zoekt een baasje met ervaring en vooral veel geduld. Hij draagt een goed gevuld rugzakje met zich mee en heeft iemand nodig die hem de tijd geeft om zich veilig en vertrouwd te voelen. Daarom is hij niet geschikt voor beginnende hondenbezitters. Vanwege zijn enthousiaste en soms wat lompe karakter plaatsen we Sjoet niet in een gezin met jonge kinderen. Met andere honden kan hij wisselend omgaan, al verwachten we dat een rustige teef de grootste kans van slagen heeft. Samenleven met katten raden we af. Alleen thuis blijven kent Sjoet nog niet goed en zal stap voor stap moeten worden opgebouwd.

About Sjoet

What life with Sjoet looks like

Sjoet is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem 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 Sjoet, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Sjoet?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Sjoet on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Sjoet if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Dierenasiel Gorinchem 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 Sjoet 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 Sjoet 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 Dierenasiel Gorinchem early rather than rehoming privately; they know Sjoet 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.
