Good to Know

Jeut's toilet training is still a work in progress, not yet fully reliable.
She eats very fast; a slow feeder bowl would help.
She can occasionally chew when bored, so keep an eye on that early on.

Jeut's Rescue Story

Jeut was abandoned by a roadside walking path with two siblings at around five weeks old, just minutes from Baan Maa. She was thin with a wormy belly and was raised on puppy milk and soft food while she recovered. She has been at Baan Maa since around April 2025.

About Jeut

Jeut has a quiet presence. She rarely barks or makes a fuss to get noticed; she just quietly turns up beside you for a pat, then rolls onto her back for a tummy rub, very much her signature move. She can look a little shy with something new, but she's affectionate, curious, food motivated and gentle underneath it. She was abandoned by a roadside path with two siblings at around five weeks old, just minutes from Baan Maa, thin with a heavy worm burden, and was raised on puppy milk and soft food. She's been at Baan Maa since around April 2025.

The Full Profile

Life with Jeut

Jeut is up around 6.30am for an active hour of walking, running and playing, then very happily naps through the hottest part of the day. She perks up again for more play and attention later on. She eats quickly, so a slow feeder is worth using. She doesn't have a favourite toy; she's more interested in grass, cuddles and chase games.

People

Jeut can be a touch nervous with men at first but settles quickly, and is very comfortable with women. She's good with teenagers, children, strangers and visitors, though she tends to hang back and let other dogs greet someone first before coming over herself. She loves cuddles once she's decided you're worth the trouble.

Other Animals

Jeut is very good with other dogs of any size, good with both males and females, fine around cows and chickens, and may occasionally chase a bird. No resource guarding has been seen. She's untested with cats.

Training

Jeut is crate trained and generally good in the car. Her toilet training is still in progress rather than fully reliable, so a new home should expect to keep reinforcing it. She's lead trained, though if she decides she isn't in the mood for a walk, she may simply lie down where she is. Sit and wait are improving, recall is reasonable, and she eats very quickly, so a slow feeder bowl is worth using.

Dogs moving into a new home often regress a little at first, even on things they'd already learned. That's normal, not a step backwards - a bit of patience and the same consistent routine soon has them back on track.

Health

Jeut is healthy, spayed and vaccinated, with no medication or known ongoing needs.

Ideal Home

Jeut would suit a first-time owner particularly well. She could live in an apartment with adequate space and regular outside access, or a house; a garden isn't essential. She's good with children and could live with another dog. She'd suit families, couples, singles, retired owners, active owners or someone working from home.

Might not be the best match if...

A very loud, chaotic household with a constant stream of unfamiliar visitors probably isn't her scene; she does better somewhere a little calmer.

Fun Fact

Jeut will fling herself belly-up onto a bed, towel or patch of artificial grass and wriggle around to scratch her back, which is most of the reason she is known as the Happy Hippo.

Perfect Day

An hour of proper running and playing first thing, a long nap through the heat of the day, and a lap around the field for pats and a back scratch once it cools down.
