My name is
Jude!

Foster update:
Jude is an intelligent, loving, and loyal pup looking for his forever home!

✔️ Housebroken & Indoor Dog 🏡
✔️ Knows Commands – "Sit," "Lay Down," "Outside," "Let's Go Inside" 🐶
✔️ Loves Playing Catch & Toys 🎾
✔️ Kennel Trained & Finds Comfort in His Crate

Jude starts each morning by letting his foster know when he needs to go potty, then patiently waits at the door to come back inside. His kennel is his safe space, and he often chooses to relax there even when the door is left open.

🐾 A Loyal Companion
Jude adores people and will be deeply loyal to anyone who gives him love. If his foster didn’t already have other dogs, they would keep him—that’s how special he is! Jude was abandoned by his previous owner, but he deserves a second chance with a loving family.

🐶 Best Fit for His Forever Home
Jude gets along well with other dogs, but a home without another alpha dog would be ideal. He recently enjoyed a meet & greet with other pups and did great!

Jude is spending time in a foster home. Here's what his foster says about him:

"Jude is smart, playful, energetic, and loving. After only a couple demonstrations he learned his spot next to the bed to sleep at night (although sometimes he prefers under the bed for more security). He is fully potty trained, with no accidents while he's been with us and once he woke us up to let us know he needed to go outside urgently. He knows "sit and is picking up "down "out and "off quickly.

Jude will find his toys and entertain himself, although he'd like it if you hung out with him. He loves any kind of toy, and his favorites are treat or kibble dispensing toys, hard chewing toys, and squeaky toys. He loves to play chase and wrestle games with our dogs. Occasionally he needs a reminder that he can't wrestle with people like his fellow dogs, but he listens well. He has not exhibited any food aggression. He is good around our chickens.

Jude wants to be close to his people whenever he can. He is a great cuddler. When the Fourth of July fireworks were scary to him, he liked being comforted with a hug and some scratches. He enjoys meeting new people as well, and had a great time at Loflin Yard greeting new friends. Jude is an awesome dog, and would make a fantastic adventure buddy or family companion."

Jude got to go on a very special field trip to City Hall for "Take Your Dog to Work Day" on June 25th. He met Mayor Strickland, his Senior Leadership Team, and many different employees throughout the building. Jude was VERY excited to be there, sat beautifully for treats, and enjoyed all the pets and scratches he was offered. He even got to play with a little puppy while he was there! Jude rode in the elevator and car with no issues, and seemed to really enjoy this very special outing!
