Zeyna

Female · Young · 1 year

Ras: Canis Vulgaris Leeftijd: 01-01-2025 Kan met andere honden: jaKan met katten: jaKan op een appartement: ja, in overlegKan met kinderen: ja, 8+ Zeyna is bij ons afgestaan vanwege de psychische problemen van haar eigenaar. Ze werd in de herfst van vorig jaar gevonden in Turkije, meegenomen naar België en heeft hier kennisgemaakt met het leven binnenshuis. We hebben Zeyna leren kennen als een vrolijk, lief en actief meisje. Ze doet graag dingen samen, vindt andere honden erg leuk om mee te spelen en een van haar andere hobby’s is snacken. Speeltjes vindt ze nog een beetje raar, maar ze ontdekt stilaan dat je daar ook mee kunt spelen. Met handen spelen kent ze wel, dat doet ze graag en daarbij blijft ze ook altijd zacht. Soms is ze even voorzichtig of afwachtend wanneer er iets nieuws gebeurt, maar met de steun van mensen en hier en daar een beloning herstelt ze snel en durft ze op onderzoek uit te gaan. Na alle activiteiten vindt Zeyna het ook heerlijk om samen op de zetel te liggen en te knuffelen. In haar vorige thuis ging ze ook graag wandelen. Heeft u interesse in Zeyna?

About Zeyna

What life with Zeyna looks like

Zeyna is a young adult dog waiting at Dierenasiel Genk in Genk.

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 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 Zeyna, answered.

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