Here's what the humans have to say about me:
🌟 Meet JADA: Your Future Furry Family Member! 🌟
Hey there, future friend! I'm JADA, and I've got a tale to tell from my cozy spot at Just Paws. I recently landed in my foster dad's loving home after my previous family, despite their love for me and my bro Kirby, had to make a tough call. No worries, though, because I'm confident my forever family is just around the corner, and I'm eagerly awaiting our meeting!
🎂 Birthdate & Heritage:
I made my debut on September 9, 2023, bringing a bundle of joy into the world. My dad, a charming 17lb terrier mix, and my mom, a delightful 21lb Border Collie/Blue Heeler mix, blessed me with an irresistible mix of cuteness, friendliness, activity, and love. What exactly am I? Well, that's a mystery we can solve together, but one thing's for sure—I'm undeniably adorable! Sweet, cuddly, and friendly, that's me.
👩⚕️ Health Update:
Guess what? I'm in tip-top shape! After my first vet visit, I've had my initial vaccinations and a check up. Now, I just had my second vet visit to receive my second set of vaccinations. Vet says I’m still healthy and I now weigh 14lbs (6.35kgs), plus the staff said I was lovely! Not sure how much bigger I will get as I get older, but I’m sure there will be another growth spurt in my future!
🐾 Playtime and Companionship:
I recently bid farewell to my foster doggy pal who found a forever home (not my dad, just to clarify!). While I'm thrilled for him, I miss having a playmate. We used to frolic and run together in the backyard, and it was an absolute blast. Don't worry; I'm ready to fill that void with your love and companionship. Do you have a dog who is waiting for playmate like me? Reminder I’m still very young, so puppy nipping and chewing are just part of being a puppy, but I do learn not to do it with positive reinforcement redirection – I am very smart and learn quickly.
😴 Sleep and Training:
Good news—I sleep like a champ! House training is a work in progress, but I'm making strides. And let's talk about food—I'm a bit of a chowhound, especially when it comes to treats. I even visit another home for extra socialization with three dogs, and I settle in quickly. Positive reinforcement training classes are on my to-do list—rumor has it, they're loads of fun and great for bonding!
🏡 Ideal Home:
Picture this: a secure fenced-in backyard, maybe another dog sibling (dream come true but not a deal-breaker), and perhaps some respectful kids—I'd thrive in that setup. Leash walking is getting better, although I'm a bit nervous around new sounds and people. When I'm not zooming around, I love being right beside you on the couch or bed, soaking in all the pets and snuggles. I will not do well in an apartment/condo environment. I do not like a crate. I will bark/cry when my foster dad leaves me but I do settle knowing he will be home soon.
🌈 Future Discoveries:
As I grow, there's still so much to uncover about me. If you're thinking I might be the little girl you've been waiting for, don't hesitate—apply for me today! Let's embark on this exciting journey together. When I drift off to sleep at night, I dream of finding my forever home, and I'm really hoping it's with you! 🐾✨
