How do I contact the shelter about Jojo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Straydogs Rescue Nederland 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 — Straydogs Rescue Nederland 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 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 Straydogs Rescue Nederland 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 (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.

Jojo

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

* Children: For an explanation, please read Why we are cautious about placing our dogs with families with (young) children. Jojo also prefers a calm energy in the house, consistent routines, and predictability. **Size:** Approximately 50 cm at the shoulder and weighing around 16 kilos, which is comparable to a Bearded Collie, though it's unknown if that breed is actually present in Jojo's genes. **Temperament:** Jojo (her passport name is Josephine) is a gentle, sensitive dog with two sides. She has a deep-seated insecurity that worsens in new environments or with clumsy handling: then it's pure fear. On the other hand, when Jojo is accustomed to a good fit in a new place and her new person(s) and is properly guided, you see the relaxed Jojo. That Jojo is a delightful cuddle buddy, super affectionate, joyful, and playful! ❗ The conditions listed below, which her new home must meet, are therefore each crucial!

* Kinderen: voor een toelichting, lees Waarom wij voorzichtig zijn met het plaatsen van onze honden bij gezinnen met (jonge) kinderen alstublieft. JoJo houdt bovendien van een kalme energie in huis, van vaste routines en voorspelbaarheid. ** Formaat: ongeveer 50 cm schofthoogte en een gewicht van 16 kilo, dat is vergelijkbaar met een Bearded Collie, waar ze uiterlijk ook best veel op lijkt. Of dat ras ook daadwerkelijk in Jojo's genen zit, is onbekend. Karakter: JoJo (haar paspoortnaam is Josephine) is een gevoelige, onzekere én (voor vertrouwde mensen) enorm vrolijke, aanhalige hond. Bij mens(en) die haar duidelijkheid en veiligheid geven en liefdevol begeleiden is Jojo een heerlijke knuffelkont, super aanhankelijk, vrolijk, speels en leergierig Inleiding: Jo is na opvang in een gastgezin geadopteerd en helaas na een paar weken terug gekomen van adoptie. De woonomgeving was te druk en de begeleiding was niet goed waardoor Jojo van een vrolijke, maar onzekere pup was teruggevallen naar een anstig, blafferig en nauwelijks benaderbaar hondje. Heel verdrietig voor haar, maar ook voor de adoptanten Deze herplaatsing maakt nóg duidelijker hoe belangrijk de voorwaarden zijn die we stellen voor haar nieuwe thuis. Als het helemaal past, dan heb je na een gewenningsperiode een meer dan geweldige honden-vriendin-voor-het-leven!

About Jojo

What life with Jojo looks like

Jojo is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Straydogs Rescue Nederland in RC Nieuwe Pekela.

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 Netherlands

Dutch shelters typically require a household assessment and an adoption contract. Animals are routinely sterilized, microchipped, and registered in the national pet database (NDG) before placement.
