Dierenasiel Breda

Dierenasiel Breda, also known as DOC Breda, is the animal shelter of Breda, in the province of North Brabant, the Netherlands. From its centre on Oude Baan it takes in lost or surrendered dogs and cats from the city and the municipalities around it.

The shelter combines rescue work with a boarding service for dogs and cats, where owned pets stay during holidays or absences of their families. Every shelter animal receives veterinary attention, a tailored diet and time for exercise and contact.

Adoptions are prepared by talking with applicants about their home, their time and their experience. The team aims to match temperaments: calm dogs for quiet households and active companions for sporty families in the Breda area.
