Adopt JODY

Podenco · Female

*I am in Switzerland* I have always been a joyful little girl and waddle around with my bottom all day long. Curious and full of life, I am on my little paws. They say I am a smart and nimble mouse. What I also love are cuddles. So I hope to be discovered soon by my loving humans who will give me a cozy spot and lots of patience and time so that I can grow up in peace and security. My story: I and my siblings were born in the residence of Hundehilfe Motril. We are Christmas children, so we are probably also as sweet as candy. As the only girl, I most resemble my mommy. Our dear mommy Mia, of course, has also contributed a great deal to that. You can learn more about our story in Mia’s ad.

*Ich bin in der Schweiz* Ich bin schon von klein auf ein freudiges kleines Mädchen und wackle den ganzen Tag mit meinem Hinterteilchen. Neugierig und mit viel Lebensfreude bin ich auf meinen kleinen Pfoten unterwegs. Sie sagen ich wäre ein schlaues und flinkes Mäuschen. Was ich auch mag sind Streicheleinheiten. So hoffe ich auch bald von meinen lieben Menschen entdeckt zu werden . Die mir ein kuscheliges Plätzchen und viel Geduld und Zeit schenken , damit ich in Ruhe und Geborgenheit gross werden kann. Meine Geschichte: Ich und meine Geschwister sind in der Residenz von Hundehilfe Motril geboren . Wir sind Weihnachtskinder darum sind wir wahrscheinlich auch so zuckersüss . Als einziges Mädchen sehe ich meiner Mami am ehesten ähnlich. Unsere liebe Mami Mia hat natürlich auch einen grossen Teil dazu beigetragen. In Mia’s Inserat könnt ihr noch mehr über unsere Geschichte erfahren .

About JODY

What life with JODY looks like

JODY is a large adult podenco dog waiting at Hundehilfe Motril in St. Gallen.

An 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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting JODY, answered.

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