MORE INFORMATION ON JIMBO
After an accident in November left him blind, Jimbo was lovingly cared for by the shelter until he could travel to the UK in February. Now in foster, he’s showing everyone just how clever, affectionate and resilient he is.
Jimbo adores people and has a naturally sweet, curious character. He’s bright, trainable and food‑motivated, which makes learning new things fun for him. He sleeps in his crate with the resident dog nearby. Podencos always amaze us with their resilience and adaptability, and Jimbo is a shining example of that.
Jimbo is blind, but he adapts quickly. He’ll thrive in a calm, consistent home where furniture stays in the same place and doors or chairs aren’t left sticking out. He can be startled if touched unexpectedly, so using a soft “Touch” cue helps him feel safe. He’s been left for short periods with another dog, but he’ll need someone home most of the day. He walks well on a lead but relies heavily on his person for reassurance. He prefers quiet walks, so a busy city life wouldn’t be ideal. Jimbo would also enjoy a safe, secure garden where he can explore outdoor space without risk.
As with all of our adoptions, adopters will be fully supported by our team and our trainer post‑adoption to ensure Jimbo can thrive. Blind dogs are often deeply bonded to their people. They listen harder, trust more deeply and build extraordinary connections. Watching a dog regain confidence after losing their sight is one of the most rewarding journeys you can be part of.
Jimbo is neutered, vaccinated and tested for all Mediterranean diseases. He is passported and available for adoption now.
