Adopt Zebra

Belgian Malinois · Female · Young · 2 years

About Adoption Lost/Found Help us Contact Zaya - Zebra - Our little Zebra is a real brave. Found by the Mariemont police, we recovered her from their premises. Thank you for their kindness. Sitting in front of a house, with her harness, she would not let anyone approach... probably an abandonment at that location. Arrived at our home very shy, it did not take two days for Zebra to grant us her trust and love. With her strong character, she knows how to make herself understood. We will prefer a family that has time for her education, in a gentle and kind way. A family without young children would be preferable as she is territorial with her things. She loves walking, and could get along with a friend or a companion. It is anyway worth testing. A family that will have patience with her and help her forget her beginning of life.

Une famille sans enfants en bas âge serait préférable car elle est territoriale avec ses affaires. Elle adore balader, et pourrait s’entendre avec un copain ou une copine. À tester de toute façon. Une famille qui aura la patience avec elle et qui lui fera oublier son début de vie.

About Zebra

What life with Zebra looks like

Zebra is a large young adult belgian malinois dog waiting at L'Arche de Noé ASBL - SPA Maisières in Mons.

An young 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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Zebra, answered.

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