Violeta

Podenco · Female · Adult · 8 years

Asiel Tenerife (Sabine): Input 24 oktober 2026: Violeta... Hoe kan ik een objectieve beschrijving beginnen wanneer ik smoorverliefd ben? Deze prachtige podenco dame springt echt letterlijk per direct je hartje in. Ze is niet alleen beeldschoon van buiten maar heeft ook een ongelofelijk fijn, zacht en aanhankelijk karakter. Violeta werd hoogzwanger gevonden. Haar jager wilde haar perse terug maar het is uiteindelijk toch gelukt om de hele familie veilig te houden. Het is nu dus eindelijk tijd voor mama Violeta om te gaan genieten van haar vrijheid en het echte hondenleventje.Ondanks haar verleden, heeft ze geen traumas, kent geen angsten en bewaart ze ook geen wrok of wantrouwen. Vanaf minuut één vertrouwde ze ons en was ze een en al dankbaarheid. Violeta kan met elke hond hier goed overweg, reutjes en teefjes, jong en oud, groot en klein. Maar als ze kan kiezen... dan is ze altijd bij een mens. Toch is ze niet lomp, wild of opdringerig. Maar op haar zachte manier is ze continu zachtjes en stilletjes in de buurt, wachtend op een knuffel of een aai over haar mooie koppie. Buiten is ze helemaal in haar element. Aan de korte riem loopt ze netjes en oplettend met je mee. Aan de lange riem zie je haar los komen. Dan huppelt ze van het ene struikje naar het andere, snuffelend, kwispelend en met een prachtige podenco smile. Echt genieten is dat dan om te zien! We hopen dat Violeta snel een eigen familie vindt. Dit pareltje zal echt een enorme aanwinst zijn in hart en huis voor diegene die haar haar welverdiende eigen gouden mand kan bieden!

About Violeta

What life with Violeta looks like

Violeta is a large adult podenco dog waiting at description in AL Ridderkerk.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Violeta, answered.

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