My name is Jade - Kitchener!

Are you looking for a sweet and playful pup to add to your family? Meet Jade! This wonderful little girl can be a she and nervous when first meeting new people but with some time she really comes out of her shell. She loves the people she is comfortable with and will ask for belly rubs and some good scratches on her back. Jade would love to find a family to call her own that she can spoil with all the love she has to offer.

~ Jade is looking for an active home that will be able to provide her with lots of exercise once she is feeling comfortable
~ Jade can be shy / nervous / fearful of new people and will need her new family to go slow with her
~ While in our care we have noticed Jade is under-socialized and will need work on her touch sensitivities
~ Jade is looking for a single person, couple or family with older children she can call her own
~ Jade will need to be signed up for training prior to going into her fur-ever home to help her learn some of her basic manners
~ Jade will need her new family to have some experience or do research on hairless breeds
