Jonhy

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Compatible with Children: Yes Compatible with Other Dogs: Yes (under supervision) Compatible with Cats: It is waiting for a home and a family. Contact us and we will inform you. It is in Málaga but can travel. Jonhy is one of those small ones that breaks your heart to see in the shelter. It was not ours but now it is one more of the family that we must find a home for. In these 2 years it has gone through 2 stages with us and as happened to Bambino, it went away to "improve" more with a person when we noticed it was stable, and came back just as broken as the aforementioned Bambino. It has taken us more than 6 months to recover his weight and for his gaze to return to being that of a normal dog. Like all dogs, if they fall into bad hands, it is harder to make them balanced puppies, and in the case of PPPs more so because of the bad reputation they get. Jonhy is about 4 years old and now weighs around 15 kilograms, it is affectionate with people and with other dogs should be under supervision and in the right hands. Tell the truth may close doors, but I, besides wishing more than anyone that they find a home, am in favor of this type of dogs being given to a more responsible family than any other type to avoid them returning again to the shelter or what should not happen by being in the wrong hands. Help Jonhy and do not let him be alone waiting for his house in our protection center. It is in Málaga but can travel anywhere in Spain, do not hesitate to ask us for information.

Compatible con Niños: Si Compatible con Otros Perros: Si (bajo supervision) Compatible con Gatos: Está esperando un hogar y una familia. Contacta con nosotros y te informamos. Está en Málaga pero puede Viajar. Jonhy es uno de esos peques que se te parte el alma ver en el refugio. No era nuestro pero ahora es uno más de la familia a los que debemos encontrar hogar. En estos 2 años ha pasado 2 etapas con nosotros y como le pasó a Bambino, se fue para “mejorar” más con una persona cuando advertimos que ya estaba estable, y volvió igual de reventado que lo hizo el ya citado Bambino. Nos ha costado más de 6 meses recuperarle de peso y que su mirada vuelva a ser la de un perro normal. Al igual que todos los perros, si caen en malas manos, luego hacerles unos peques equilibrados es más difícil, y en el caso de los ppp más por la mala fama que se les da. Jonhy tiene unos 4 años y ahora, pesa unos 15 kilos, es cariñoso con personas y con perros debe estar bajo supervisión y en las manos apropiadas. Decir la verdad quizás le cierre puertas, pero yo, además de desear más que nadie que encuentren hogar, soy partidario de que este tipo de perros sea dado a una familia más responsable aún si cabe que cualquier otro tipo para evitar que vuelva, otra vez, al refugio o que ocurra lo que no debe ocurrir por estar en manos inadecuadas. Ayuda a Jonhy y no permitas que esté solo esperando su casa en nuestra protectora. Está en Málaga pero puede viajar a cualquier lugar de España , no dudes en pedirnos información. Dona en nuestra web desde 5€ y ayudanos para poder seguir con nuestra labor. Animalcare Veterinario en Rincon de la Victoria

About Jonhy

What life with Jonhy looks like

Jonhy is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at La Sonrisa Peluda in Cartama (Malaga).

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇪🇸Adopting from Spain

Spanish protectoras generally include sterilization, all vaccinations, microchip ID, and EU pet passport in the adoption fee (typically €250–€400 for a dog, €100–€180 for a cat). Many maintain partnerships with rescue transport providers across the EU.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jonhy, answered.

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