Taja

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

This is Taja! A lovely, gentle Old English Bulldog. Taja clearly enjoys all the attention from her people. Playing together is her favorite! Especially with a tug-of-war toy, she excels, but be cautious, she is strong for her size. Taja has a clear opinion… Sometimes this lady needs to be motivated to work, as she knows exactly what she wants. A obedience class would benefit Taja and will strengthen the bond with her future owner. She enjoys walking, but a long marathon might be a bit much. Mentally, she likes to be challenged by, for example, sniffing games or a chew snack she has to work for. Taja is very eager to learn and becomes visibly happy from learning. What we are looking for for Taja? A stable, loving home will be the best for Taja. For example, a family that is looking for a cozy, but also funny companion. Taja will benefit from an owner who has some knowledge of the breed and has a lot of time and attention for her. We do not place her with other bulldogs. She may be placed with children from the age of 12.

Dit is Taja! Een lieve, zachtaardige Old English Bulldog. Taja geniet duidelijk van alle liefde een aandacht van haar mensen. Samen spelen vind ze geweldig! Vooral met een trektouw vermaakt ze zich uitstekend, maar let op, ze is sterk voor haar formaat. Taja heeft duidelijk een eigen mening… Soms moet deze dame gemotiveerd worden om mee te werken, want ze weet precies wat ze zelf wil. Een gehoorzaamheidscursus zou Taja goed doen en zal de band met haar toekomstige eigenaar versterken. Wandelen vind ze fijn, maar een flinke marathon is ietwat overdreven. Wel wordt ze mentaal graag uitgedaagd door bijvoorbeeld snuffelspelletjes of een kauwsnack waar ze voor moet werken. Taja is erg leergierig en wordt zij zichtbaar gelukkig van leren. Wat wij voor Taja zoeken? Een stabiel, liefdevol huishouden zal voor Taja het beste uitpakken. Bijvoorbeeld een gezin dat een gezellige, maar ook grappige metgezel zoekt. Taja zal baat hebben bij een eigenaar die enige kennis heeft van het ras en daarnaast veel aandacht en tijd voor haar heeft. We plaatsen haar niet bij soortgenoten. Eventueel wordt ze geplaatst bij kinderen vanaf 12 jaar oud. Ga terug

About Taja

What life with Taja looks like

Taja is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dierentehuis Arnhem 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 Taja, answered.

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