Jojo

Alaskan Malamute · Male

Our beautiful girl JoJo is on the lookout for a new home. She came into our care after her owners could sadly no longer keep her. Unfortunately, due to an allergy in the home, JoJo was being kept in an outdoor kennel alone for long hours over the last year. JoJo loves being around people, however she can get a little overwhelmed if spending long periods of time with people and can then forget her manners. We are working on this with her but will need her new owners to continue this in the home, and ideally allow her a ‘safe space’ to be alone and decompress if she needs to. She adores playing with her toys and going out for a nice walk, not even a bit of rain can stop her. She loves finding big puddles to splash around in, and is quite happy to keep herself occupied with her toys by throwing them in the air and catching them again. JoJo has shown some signs of resource guarding her toys and some longer lasting treats, so will need her new owners to be respectful of her space and continue her ‘drop’ and ‘leave it’ training in the home. Do you have the space in your home for this lovable floof?

About Jojo

What life with Jojo looks like

Jojo is a large adult alaskan malamute dog waiting at RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch in United Kingdom.

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 United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jojo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Jojo?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jojo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Jojo if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch 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. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Jojo 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 Jojo 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 RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jojo 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
