How do I contact the shelter about Yann?

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 Yann on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Yann 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Yann 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 Yann 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 Yann 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.

Yann

Podenco · Male · Young · 2 years

Akira Dog Sanctuary Input 17 November 2025: Yann has just arrived at the animal shelter and was quite shaken by his new situation. Yann is a very affectionate dog and prefers to be by your side all day long. He walks well with you and if you stop for a moment, Yann comes to give you a cuddle. He then stands on his hind legs and really hugs you. This is extremely touching to watch, but it also immediately shows the uncertain side of Yann. He really wants to do well and looks up to you to see what you expect from him. Yann found the harness a bit exciting at first, but this also went well after a few times. Yann is a sensitive, kind, gentle and young dog who would like to find a home as soon as possible. Who wants to give this extremely lovely cuddly bottom a warm bed and lots of love?

Besproken via het asiel, augustus 2026 Pepito dog shelter: Update 26 augustus 2026: Goed nieuws voor de leuke Yann, hij is in Spanje door iemand opgemerkt en mag bij deze mensen thuis gaan oefenen. Als het goed gaat en de klik is er dan mag Yann zelfs blijven en heeft hij zijn gouden mandje gevonden. Input 17 november 2025: Yann zit pas net in het asiel en hij was best een beetje aangedaan wat betreft zijn nieuwe situatie. Yann is een hele aanhankelijke hond en is het liefst de hele dag bij je in de buurt. Hij wandelt goed met je mee en als je even stil staat, komt Yann een knuffel geven. Hij gaat dan op zijn achterpoten staan en knuffelt je echt. Dit is ontzettend aandoenlijk om te zien, maar ook laat het meteen de onzekere kant van Yann zien. Hij wil het heel graag goed doen en kijkt echt naar je op wat je van hem verwacht.Yann vond het tuigje in het begin erg spannend, maar ook dit ging na een paar keer prima. Yann is een gevoelige, lieve, zachte en jonge hond die graag zo snel mogelijk een eigen plekje vindtWie wil deze ontzettend lieve knuffelkont een warme mand en heel veel liefde geven?

About Yann

What life with Yann looks like

Yann is a young adult podenco dog waiting at description in AL Ridderkerk.

An young 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.
