Meet Judo

Meet Judo!

A spirited six-year-old mixed breed from Bend, OR, whose heart is as big as his love for adventure. With his striking white coat sprinkled with black patches and a galaxy of tiny spots, Judo is as unique in appearance as he is in personality. Whether he's sprinting through the trails, keeping pace on a long run, or stretching out for a lazy day indoors, this adaptable boy is happiest when he’s with his favorite people!

Judo is a true athlete—he can easily run 10+ miles or tackle a rugged hike, yet he’s just as content lounging around the house. His energy is balanced by his affectionate side, and his idea of a perfect evening involves snuggling up with his favorite humans. He has excellent house manners, is fully house-trained, and even free-feeds, maintaining a healthy weight of 51 pounds. He sleeps soundly through the night (sometimes up to 14 hours!) and greets his people with the most enthusiastic tail wag imaginable!

Judo thrives in an adult-only home where he can feel secure and at ease. After a stressful experience, he has become anxious around children and is looking for a home without young ones. His sensitivity heightened after he was attacked by another dog, which led to increased wariness in certain situations. He nipped a toddler when the child became more mobile, signaling that he was uncomfortable with unpredictable movements. Additionally, he has bitten two dogs near his home when he felt threatened, though he does well with other dogs in open spaces and enjoys a good romp. With the right introduction and a calm environment, he may enjoy the companionship of another dog.

He’s a sensitive soul who bonds deeply with his people, and while he’s independent in some ways, he appreciates understanding and patience when it comes to things like nail trims and long car rides. He loves playing in the rain and snow, but isn’t a fan of going out in it when it’s time for him to go. His ideal guardian is active, experienced with dogs who have some anxiety, and willing to provide him with both exercise and a calm, structured environment.

To make sure that Judo has a great start with his new family, we have a canine behaviorist available for a free consultation.

Judo has been a cherished companion for six years, and now he’s looking for a new loving home where he can continue to thrive. Could you be the one to give him that?

If you're interested in providing Judo with a loving home, please email adopt@joyfulpets.com for more information on adopting him! Please note that Judo will remain with his current family until a suitable new home is found for him.

Also, Judo is open to a long-distance adoption—love knows no distance when finding your perfect companion!
