Jude

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Jude's Story: Jude's story is quite sad. He was found on the street some time ago by a volunteer from Zante Strays on the Greek island of Zakynthos. He was trembling. He was full of wounds and covered in blood. It was clear that he had been attacked by other dogs. Jude was taken to the vet immediately. After that, he went to a loving foster home to recover and heal. This took some time, but he has fully recovered. Except for his one eye, which was too damaged and he has to live without. Jude is not less handsome because of that and can live well with it. Jude weighs about 13/14 pounds and has a nice size. As soon as an adopter or foster family is found for Jude, he can come to the Netherlands. Sweet, adorable Jude. So much has happened in his life. He lives with a foster family on Zakynthos. There he lives with other dogs and that goes fine. However, we want him to have a golden bed, all to himself or with a sweet other quiet dog. Jude is still a bit hesitant towards new people and also cautious towards dogs. Logical, given his background. We are looking for someone for Jude, or a couple, without children. People who lead a quiet life and who have all the time for him. Lovely walks with him and pampering him. We don't think children and other pets are a good idea in Jude's case. Not that he's not sweet, but it could be exciting for him. Is Jude a standard "starter dog"? No, he's not. But Jude is a treasure of a dog, who deserves a very nice life. We are looking for someone who will take him as he is and will slowly build up with him from there. We are sure that Jude can flourish even more with the right person or people. He just needs time, love and patience. His ideal bed is in a very quiet environment, in the countryside. And of course, the house has a fence.

Het verhaal van Jude: Het verhaal van Jude is best verdrietig. Hij is een tijd geleden gevonden op straat, door een vrijwilliger van Zante Strays, op het Griekse eiland Zakynthos. Hij zat helemaal te trillen. Hij zat vol wonden en onder het bloed. Het was duidelijk dat hij was aangevallen door andere honden. Jude is direct naar de dierenarts gebracht. Daarna is hij in een lief gastgezin gekomen, om op krachten te komen te herstellen. Dit heeft even geduurd maar hij is weer helemaal tip top in orde. Soms trekt hij zijn pootje een beetje op als hij rent. (zie ook filmpje) Jude mist ook 1 oogje, dit is waarschijnlijk gekomen doordat hij is aangevallen door andere honden. Jude is er niet minder knap om en kan er prima mee leven. Jude weegt een kilo of 12 en heeft een fijn formaatje. Jude verblijft sinds kort in een gastgezin in Spijkenisse. Daar is hij rustig aan het landen. Binnenkort komen er foto's van Jude in Nederland Lieve, schattige Jude. Zoveel meegemaakt in zijn leventje. Wij gunnen hem een gouden mandje, helemaal alleen voor zichzelf of met een lieve andere rustige hond. Jude is wat afwachtend naar nieuwe mensen toe maar als hij ervaart dat het ‘ok is' komt hij wel uit zijn schulpje. Logisch, gezien zijn achtergrond. Wij zoeken voor Jude iemand, of een stel, zonder kinderen. Mensen die een enigszins rustig leven leiden en die de tijd voor hem hebben. Lekker met hem willen wandelen en hem vertroetelen. Als er een andere hond in huis is, dan een vriendelijke, stabiele hond en geen dominerende hond. Jude is een schat van een hond, die een heel mooi leven verdient. We zoeken iemand die hem neemt zoals hij is en van daaruit heel rustig gaat opbouwen met hem. We weten zeker dat Jude nog veel meer tot bloei kan komen, bij de juiste persoon of personen. Hij heeft alleen tijd, liefde en geduld nodig. Zijn ideale mandje staat in een rustige omgeving, in het groen. Een tuin zou fijn zijn. Een appartement zou kunnen maar dan met lift en het is bel

About Jude

What life with Jude looks like

Jude is a puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Stichting Wereldhonden in Netherlands.

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 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Jude, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Jude?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stichting Wereldhonden handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jude on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Jude if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stichting Wereldhonden 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Jude 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 Jude 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 Stichting Wereldhonden early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jude 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.
