Josy

Collie · Female · Adult · 7 years

Josy, Collie dog, 6 years! My name is Josy and I am trying to find a new home. Due to health issues and financial reasons, I have to be surrendered. I am a loving Collie and live with a cat. I am friendly and walk on a leash as I should. I am not a couch potato, I like to be busy. Games and nose work would make me happy. I am currently on a raw food diet and it suits me well, but good quality canned and dry food would also work! I do not know any children! I am looking for a family with a house and a fenced yard, as I am used to. Either as a single dog or with an older, neutered, and composed Collie boy. I live approximately 50 km west of Cologne! If you would like to know more about me, please write to Heidi Jostschulte. Please have understanding that only serious inquiries with a full name, telephone number, and address will be answered. The more information you provide upfront, the better we can determine if the Collie is suitable for you. On short emails...where is the Collie, had our own Collies before, the last one passed away...your email will not be answered. Your email with a detailed description to Heidi Jostschulte hjostschulte(at).

Josy, Colliehündin, 7 Jahre! Mein Name ist Josy und ich versuche hier, ein neues Zuhause für mich zu finden. Krankeitsbedingt und aus finanziellen Gründen muss ich abgegeben werden. Ich bin eine liebe Colliehündin und lebe mit einer Katze zusammen. Ich bin verträglich und gehe an der Leine, wie es sich gehört. Ich bin kein Sofacollie, ich möchte beschäftigt werden. Suchspiele und Nasenarbeit würden mir Spass machen. Ich werde in der Ernährung gebarft und das bekommt mir gut, aber gutes Dosen-und Trockenfutter würde auch gehen! Kinder kenne ich nicht! Ich suche eine Familie mit einem Haus und eingezäuntem Garten, wie ich es gewohnt bin. Entweder als Einzelhund oder zu einem älteren, kastrierten und souveränen Collierüden. Ich lebe ca. 50 km westlich von Köln! Wenn ihr mehr über mich wissen möchtet, dann schreibt an Heidi Jostschulte. Haben Sie bitte Verständnis, dass nur ernst gemeinte Anfragen mit vollem Namen, Telefonnummer und Anschrift beantwortet werden können. Je mehr Informationen Sie vorab geben, desto besser können wir erkennen, ob der Collie für Sie geeignet ist. Auf kurze Mails....wo ist der Collie, hatten schon selber Collies, der letzte ist gestorben....wird nicht geantwortet.

About Josy

What life with Josy looks like

Josy is a adult collie dog waiting at Collies suchen ein Zuhause in Oldenburg.

An 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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Josy, answered.

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