My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Cowers at sudden movements; masks it with a big bark that ridiculously overcompensates. She'll take some time. Sit in her pen and let her come to you; it'll happen. The payoff when you get her eating treats out of your hand, and then getting kisses? Priceless.

A little nervous outside, takes some time to get used to her environment. Simply seems like a dog that hasn't experienced the good life yet. Maybe you could show it to her?

Come meet me today at Jackson County Animal Shelter in Jackson, Michigan, USA! *All dog adoptions require an application*. Availability date shown is when the cat or dog becomes JCAS property; any necessary medical procedures may slightly postpone an adoption. For dogs, a meet & greet with your dog is required, and is the only definitive way to know how our dog will behave for you.

PLEASE NOTE: NOT ALL ANIMALS ARE ON THE WEBSITE. IF YOU ARE MISSING YOUR PET, PLEASE COME THE SHELTER TO SEE IF YOUR PET IS HERE.

Adoption costs:
Cat/kitten: $90, second cat/kitten for $1. There may be an additional $50 refundable spay/neuter fee for kittens too young to be spayed/neutered at time of adoption.
Dog: $120 plus dog license fee

Adoption fees include vaccinations, spay/neuter, heartworm check (for dogs), feline leukemia check (for cats), rabies vaccination, and deworming. Pets have also been treated for fleas and ticks. Some pets may have had other veterinary treatment as needed.
