Story
Benny has been hanging out with his foster for almost 5 months. He hasn't had any interest, we assume it's because of his breed. Well, we will tell you a little about him. Benny is a "man's best friend" type of dog. He absolutely loves being with people. He's great with other dogs and children. He walks well on a leash. He is a happy guy with lots of love to give. He's very energetic and loves to romp with playmates. He's built low to the ground and around 60lbs. He will make a great family member. He's loyal and eager to please. For return calls on Benny, please submit an application. It is much more productive to speak with you when we have an idea about your living situation. Due to limited resources and time, we will not be answering questions or returning calls until we have an approved application. That is the first step in our adoption process. His adoption fee is $150 Applications can be found on our website: https://www.jessaminehumanesociety.org He has been neutered UTD on vaccinations, treated for flea/tick and dewormed.

Story
For return calls on Indy, please submit an application. It is much more productive to speak with you when we have an idea about your living situation. Due to limited resources and time, we will not be answering questions or returning calls until we have an approved application. That is the first step in our adoption process. Her adoption fee is $500 Applications can be found on our website: https://www.jessaminehumanesociety.org Just as we say for all adoptions, be sure to do your research on the breed before applying to adopt. This is an extra large breed. This breed needs an alpha owner, lots of socialization and exercise. Indy MUST go to a home with a fully fenced yard to provide safety and proper exercise time. Indy is a 10 month old, female Cane Corso. She currently weighs about 100lbs. She has been in the same home since she was born and well taken care of. The current owner just doesn't have room for another large dog. She is a sweet, playful girl. She has been in a home with older children and loves them. She hasn't had any issues meeting new adults. She does not like cats or small dogs. She would likely do well in a home with no large female dogs. She spends most of her days outside in a fenced area. She is crated during the night. She is working on leash walking. Potty trained to 100% will not take long since she is already trained when crated. Before she is adopted, she will be spayed, UTD on all vaccinations, microchipped and dewormed.

He is a pretty great dog i am very distraught to have to rehome him he came from a woman my mother knew who was just letting her dogs breed and he was a great fit iv’e had him for around a year and a half but now I have a baby on the way and I am working 60 hour weeks and cannot give him the care he deserves his only issue is he will only use the bathroom in the house if he isn’t watched he typically goes outside just fine is crate trained tends to whine a bit if he feels like he’s ready to be out, loves to play (very high energy) he’s great with kids he can just be a little unintentionally rough when playing loves to play with our cat very toy motivated please do not contact if you don’t want him forever!!!

Story
Hi! I'm Demo, a 7-month-old chocolate lab mix! Unlike most my breed, I am pretty shy! When I came in, I had demodex and was malnourished. Now that they got me all better and on flea and tick that helps my skin, I am doing much better! I am a sweetie pie and snuggle bug! I also have a submissive playstyle, but I get along with any dog that I have met! I would thrive in a home with a dog who exudes confidence so I can learn to be confident too! I am a handsome pup who is well behaved, and they are working me closer to being potty trained! I could certainly learn the schedule that works best for you!
