Yuna – Mechelse herder ter adoptie

Female · Adult · 6 years

Yuna is a 7-year-old Belgian Shepherd looking for a loving home through DOA. We don't know much about her past, but she was brought here because her previous owner could no longer care for her. The people here are helping her discover who she is, and she's a very sweet and playful girl. Despite being 7, she still has plenty of energy! She loves playing fetch - you throw the ball, she runs after it, brings it back, and even lets it go. She also enjoys playing with other dogs, running, and wrestling. When she gets overwhelmed, she communicates her needs nicely. She also loves going on walks and exploring all the interesting smells outside. And after all that, she's a big cuddler. She loves attention, affection, and being pampered. Maybe you could be the one to start her next chapter. She has a lot of love, joy, walks, games, and cuddles to give.

Hoi! Mijn naam is Yuna, ik ben een Mechelse herder van 7 jaar oud. Via DOA ben ik op zoek naar een fijn en liefdevol thuis waar ik de rest van mijn leven mag genieten. Hoe mijn leven er precies uitzag voordat ik bij DOA kwam, weten we helaas niet zo goed. Mijn vorige baasje kon niet meer zo goed voor mij zorgen en daarom ben ik hier terechtgekomen. Gelukkig laten de mensen hier me steeds beter zien wie ik ben… Ik ben namelijk een ontzettend lieve en vrolijke dame. En hoewel ik inmiddels 7 jaar ben, zit er nog behoorlijk wat energie in mij! Ooooh… een bal! Wacht even, waar waren we ook alweer? Juist… mijn bal! Ik ben namelijk dol op balletje gooien. Jij gooit, ik ren erachteraan, ik breng hem netjes bij je terug en laat hem ook nog los. Kijk, zo hoort het! En dan mag jij hem natuurlijk nog een keer gooien. En nog een keer. En nog een keer… Naast balletjes vind ik het ook hartstikke leuk om met andere honden te spelen. Samen lekker rennen, een beetje stoeien en plezier maken: daar kan ik echt van genieten. En als het me even te druk wordt, dan ben ik ook heel netjes in mijn communicatie om dat te laten weten aan de andere hond. Ook wandelen vind ik heerlijk. Ik ga graag op pad en vind het geweldig om met mijn neusje over de grond alle interessante geurtjes te ontdekken. Er is buiten tenslotte zoveel te ruiken! En na al dat spelen en wandelen? Dan is het tijd voor… knuffelen! Want ja, ik ben niet alleen actief, ik ben ook een echte knuffelkont. Lekker samen zijn, aandacht krijgen en genieten van een fijne aai over mijn koppie; daar word ik heel gelukkig van. Wie weet ben jij wel degene met wie ik mijn volgende hoofdstuk mag beginnen. Ik heb misschien niet het meest duidelijke verhaal uit mijn verleden, maar ik weet wél dat ik nog heel veel liefde, vrolijkheid, wandelingen, spelletjes en knuffels te geven heb.
