Spencer

Male · Young · 3 years

Meet Spencer, a young gelding just 3 years old who is looking for a loving home. Spencer is still at the beginning of his life, but unfortunately he can no longer be trained under saddle due to mild ataxia and has a umbilical hernia. Therefore, we are looking for a nice place where nothing is expected of him and where he can just be a horse. Because Spencer is still so young, we give him a place where he can enjoy many years. A nice home with fellow horses, enough space to move around and people who want to give him the love and care he deserves. So we are looking for a golden house for Spencer where he can lead a carefree life as a companion horse. Will you give this young gelding a good future? Or do you know someone who might have the perfect place for Spencer? Please feel free to contact us. Maybe you are the one who can give Spencer the loving home he is looking for.

Maak kennis met Spencer, een jonge ruin van pas 3 jaar oud die op zoek is naar een liefdevol thuis. Spencer staat nog aan het begin van zijn leven, maar helaas kan hij niet meer beleerd worden onder het zadel vanwege lichte ataxie en heeft hij een navelbreuk. Daarom zoeken we voor hem een fijne plek waar niets van hem verwacht wordt en waar hij gewoon lekker paard mag zijn. Omdat Spencer nog zo jong is, gunnen we hem een plek waar hij nog vele jaren kan genieten. Een fijn thuis met soortgenootjes, voldoende ruimte om lekker te bewegen en mensen die hem de liefde en verzorging willen geven die hij verdient. Voor Spencer zoeken we dus een gouden huisje waar hij een onbezorgd leven kan leiden als gezelschapspaard. Gun jij deze jonge ruin een mooie toekomst? Of ken je iemand die misschien de perfecte plek heeft voor Spencer? Neem dan gerust contact met ons op. Misschien ben jij wel degene die Spencer het liefdevolle thuis kan geven waar hij zo naar op zoek is.

About Spencer

What life with Spencer looks like

Spencer is a young adult 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

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 Spencer, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Spencer?
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 Spencer on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Spencer if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Paard zoekt baas 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 Spencer already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most horses 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 Spencer 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 Spencer 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.
