Description
JOJO is a young, large, strikingly beautiful girl with a strong character and a deep emotional bond to the people she trusts. Born on **10/03/2024**, she is still young, but already shows the instincts and presence of a mature guardian-type dog.
With those she knows well, JOJO is affectionate, loyal and connected. She enjoys closeness, routine and meaningful relationships, and she thrives when life feels calm, clear and predictable.
š¾ Personality & Behaviour
JOJO is intelligent, alert and emotionally intense. Over time, she has shown increasing discomfort in situations that feel overwhelming to her ā particularly around unfamiliar people, unfamiliar dogs and busy environments.
This behaviour is not random. It reflects a dog who feels responsible for her space and surroundings, and who struggles when that responsibility becomes too heavy. JOJO is not a social dog ā she is a dog who values calm, structure and clarity.
š” The Home JOJO Is Looking For
JOJO needs a home that offers:
⢠Space ā both physical and emotional
⢠A calm, confident human presence
⢠A predictable daily routine
⢠Low external pressure and limited visitors
She will not thrive in busy neighbourhoods or environments with constant stimulation. A quieter lifestyle, with plenty of space and minimal exposure to strangers, would suit her far better.
š¤ The Right Human Match
JOJO needs a person (or family) who naturally conveys calm, grounded leadership ā someone emotionally steady, confident and physically capable. When that presence is there, JOJO can relax, let go of control and settle beautifully.
This is not something that can be taught quickly. Dogs like JOJO sense it instinctively.
š Other Dogs & Daily Life
JOJO finds interactions with other dogs challenging, especially when she feels tension or competition for space. She may do best as an only dog, or with very careful, experienced management.
Busy walks, crowded parks and frequent encounters with unfamiliar dogs are not environments where JOJO can succeed.
ā¤ļø An Honest & Loving Note
JOJO is deeply loved by us, and we are committed to finding her a forever home ā one where she will not struggle, and where she will not need to come back.
She is not a dog for everyone. But for the right person, JOJO can be an intensely loyal, impressive and devoted companion.
