Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

URGENT-OY (F) 3 YEARS - to be adopted by BorderLineCollie Characteristics Birth date: 25/03/2021 Sex: Female Registered with LOF/LOSH/ISDS: No Disabilities: No Child friendly: from the age of (older) adolescence Dog friendly: No Cat friendly: No Other friendly: unknown Character Oy is described as a young, gentle, intelligent and attentive female. She gets easily excited and then it is difficult to "reach" her. When she is excited, she can pinch active children. When Oy is with a person, she is calm. Right now, she is also very nervous and very sensitive to noise. When she is in her cage, she rests. History Oy was born on a farm where very little was done for her early socialization. For health reasons, her owner was unable to train and exercise her properly, so walks on a leash are now disastrous. Oy is anxious in the street and prefers not to go out. Every time they take her harness for a walk, Oy's stress already increases. An animal behaviorist was called for her anxiety/stress but this did not give the desired results. Oy attended puppy classes and a follow-up class at a dog school. Oy loves mental games; she finds traveling in the car exciting; she has not been tested with sheep. Due to the deterioration of her health, the owner has requested with the greatest regret that BorderLineCollie find a more appropriate home for Oy. For Oy, BLC is looking for adopters who will guide her calmly and understandingly so that she regains confidence in everything around her. Naturally, adopters who live in a quiet environment with little agitation in the house. As mentioned above, Oy cannot live with another dog and/or a cat. BLC works with a questionnaire, home visit and a contract which includes that the new owner must have Oy spayed. Adopter sought Sterilized: No, but must be Vaccinated: Yes ID: 528210006468677 Address: Schagen, Netherlands Cost sharing: 250€ Contact person: Maco Hoogenboom (Netherlands) or Veerle Baekelandt (Belgium) via messenger Email: Share on PinterestShare with your friendsYour NameYour EmailRecipient EmailEnter a MessageI read this article and found it very interesting, I think you might like it.

FR·Show original

Caractère: Oy est décrite comme une jeune femelle douce, intelligente et à l'écoute. Elle se surexcite facilement et est alors difficile à "atteindre". Lorsqu'elle est surexcitée, elle peut pincer les enfants agités. Quand Oy est avec une personne, elle est calme. En ce moment, elle est aussi très nerveuse et très sensible au bruit. Quand elle est dans sa cage, elle se repose. Son histoire: Oy est née dans une ferme où très peu de choses ont été faites pour sa socialisation précoce. Pour des raisons de santé, son propriétaire n'a pas été en mesure de l'entraîner et de lui faire faire de l'exercice de manière adéquate, de sorte que les promenades en laisse sont maintenant désastreuses. Oy est anxieuse dans la rue et préfère ne pas sortir. Chaque fois que l'on prend son harnais pour une promenade, le stress d'Oy augmente déjà. Un comportementaliste a été appelé pour son anxiété/stress mais cela n'a pas donné les résultats souhaités. Oy a suivi des cours pour chiots et un cours de suivi dans une école canine. Oy aime beaucoup les jeux mentaux ; elle trouve voyager en voiture excitant ; elle n'a pas été testée avec des moutons. En raison de la détérioration de son état de santé, la propriétaire a demandé avec le plus grand regret à BorderLineCollie de trouver un foyer plus approprié pour Oy. Pour Oy, BLC recherche des adoptants qui la guideront avec calme et compréhension pour qu'elle retrouve la confiance de tout ce qui l'entoure. Naturellement, des adoptants qui vivent dans un environnement calme et où il y a peu d'agitation dans la maison. Comme indiqué ci-dessus, Oy ne peut pas vivre avec un autre chien et/ou un chat. BLC werkt met een vragenlijst, huisbezoek en een contract waar onder andere in staat dat de nieuwe eigenaar Oy moet laten steriliseren.

About OY

What life with OY looks like

OY is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Border Line Collie in borderlinecollie.

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 France

French refuges follow the SPA framework: adopters sign a cession contract that includes sterilization, vaccinations, microchip identification, and rabies passport. Many refuges work with rescue transport partners for cross-border placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting OY, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about OY?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Border Line Collie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw OY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt OY if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Border Line Collie 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is OY 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 OY 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 Border Line Collie early rather than rehoming privately; they know OY 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 (FR). 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.
