Judie

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Photos and possibly video from July 2019: Judie is unfortunately still waiting for her luck. She has no problems with other dogs, can walk properly on a leash, and is a clean girl. As of 20.06.2019, the young female dog has thawed out; she is still cautious with strangers but now shows interest with people she knows. She has ideas in her head, like at the high temperatures now, to crawl into the large water bowls and just sit there. :-)) She is being observed further and is also being tested with other dogs. We will report back. On 10.05.2019, Judie is still very reserved, she has no trust in people and is afraid. One must now give her some time to realize that there are people who are good to her. She does not go forward but retreats. We will report back.

Fotos und ev. Video : Juli 2019 Judie wartet leider immer noch auf ihr Glück. Mit anderen Hunden hat sie keine Probleme, kann anständig an der Leine laufen und ist ein sauberes Mädel. 20.06.2019 inzwischen ist die junge Hündin aufgetaut, bei Fremden ist sie noch vorsichtig, aber bei Menschen die sie kennt wirkt sie nun auch interessiert. Hat Flausen im Kopf wie z.B. bei den nun hohen Temperaturen in den großen Trinkeimer zu krabbeln und dort dann einfach sitzen bleiben. :-) Sie wird weiter beobachtet und auch mit anderen Hunden getestet. Wir berichten wieder. 10.05.2019 Judie ist zur Zeit nochsehr zurückhaltend, sie hat kein Vertrauen zu den Menschen und fürchtet sich. Man muss ihrnun etwas Zeit lassen um zu merken, dass es Menschen gibt, die es gut mit ihr meinen. Sie geht nict vor, sondern zieht sich zurück. Wir berichten wieder.

About Judie

What life with Judie looks like

Judie is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Arme Pfoten in Arme Pfoten.

An young 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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Judie, answered.

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