Vinny

Male · Adult · 6 years

Vinny, een kleine maar o zo stoere man uit Polen. Hij zat in een keurig asiel, maar daar leven de honden toch in kennels en huisjes buiten. De strenge winter komt eraan en daarom is deze kleine man naar Nederland gekomen. Hij is een echte mensenhond. Honden vindt hij prima, zolang ze maar buiten zijn om te spelen. Binnen heeft hij graag het rijk alleen. Hij is een stoer manneke op korte pootjes, maar met een enorm karakter. Hij is gek op knuffelen en vindt het geweldig om bij je te zijn. Vinny is ook geschikt om bij oudere mensen te wonen. Kleine kinderen raden wij niet aan gezien zijn toch wel enigszins dominante karakter. Vinny zoekt een maatje voor het leven en misschien ben jij dat wel. Bel: 06-50800245 of vul het formulier in:

About Vinny

What life with Vinny looks like

Vinny is a small adult dog waiting at Stichting Huis voor Dieren 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 Vinny, answered.

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