Tequila

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 10 years

Tequila was brought to us as a foundling. She’s chipped, but not properly registered. Who was her owner? How did she end up in a residential area in Goes? Was she abandoned? Or perhaps she simply ran away? We’ll never know, because unfortunately no owner has come forward for Tequila. But she’s now completely ready for her new home. Thanks to her chip, we at least know her name and age (over 10 years old). Unfortunately, we don’t know anything else about her or her past. Here at our shelter, we see an incredibly friendly and happy dog. At first, she was very fearful and cautious—but of course, that’s understandable. Tequila now thoroughly enjoys all the attention she receives, and she doesn’t pay any attention to the other dogs. However, she reacts very strongly to cats. Therefore, we won’t place her in a household where cats live. Otherwise, she’s looking for a quiet home where she can relax and enjoy her golden years in peace. She still thoroughly enjoys going on (short) walks together with others. She doesn’t like being home alone—for too long. Animal Shelter De Bevelanden, Westhavendijk 140, 4463 AE GOES, email:

Tequila is als vondeling bij ons binnen gebracht. Wel gechipt, maar niet (goed) geregistreerd. Wie was haar eigenaar? Hoe komt ze in een woonwijk in Goes terecht? Is ze gedumpt? Of misschien toch weggelopen? We zullen het nooit weten, want een eigenaar heeft zich helaas niet gemeld voor Tequila. Maar ze is inmiddels helemaal klaar voor haar nieuwe thuis. Dankzij haar chip weten we in ieder geval haar naam en leeftijd (ruim 10 jaar). Verder weten we helaas niets over haar of haar verleden. Hier in ons asiel zien we een ontzettend vriendelijke en blije hond. In het begin was ze wel erg bang/afwachtend, maar dat is natuurlijk ook te begrijpen. Tequila geniet inmiddels van alle aandacht die ze krijgt en van de andere honden trekt ze zich niets aan. Op katten reageert ze echter enorm fel. We plaatsen haar dus niet in een huishouden waar katten wonen. Verder zoekt ze een rustig thuis waar ze op haar gemak van haar oude dag mag en kan gaan genieten. Ze geniet nog volop van samen (korte) wandelingen maken. Ze is niet graag (te lang) alleen thuis. Dierenasiel de BevelandenWesthavendijk 1404463 AE GOES e-mail:

About Tequila

What life with Tequila looks like

Tequila is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Dierenasiel De Bevelanden in AE Goes.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇳🇱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 Tequila, answered.

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