Jandoon, a planet located in the Outer Rim Territories, was the native habitat of salamanders known as Jandoonian salamanders. These creatures possessed the ability to be tamed and were sometimes chosen as companion animals.
The Jandoonian salamanders were first brought to the attention of the public in Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game, Second Edition, Revised and Expanded. This was a sourcebook from 1997 for Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game by West End Games, with Bill Smith as the author.
