We generally do not have much background info on them and cannot guarantee they are housebroken.  They are all up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered and microchipped.  Hey everyone! I'm Dale, a 2-year-old mix looking for my forever home. At just 21lbs, I'm a compact bundle of love and energy. Life at the shelter is really tough for me. The constant barking and noise stress me out, and I just want a peaceful home where I can thrive.  A Little About Me: I'm probably better as a single dog but I may get along with some, so let's set up a meet and greet to see if we click! ( I have a small female friend here and I like her!)  No cats for me, please. I'm looking for a dog-savvy owner who enjoys exercise and is committed to my continued training. I have so much love to give and can't wait to share it with a family who will give me the attention I deserve. If you or someone you know is ready for a loyal, loving companion, come meet me! Adult home preferred.   *Per JSAC policy, puppies and kittens under 6 months will not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6 years.November 5, 2024, 5:11 pm

This dog is part of our shelter outreach program where we take dogs from overcrowded shelters in hopes of finding them a forever home here! We generally do not have much background info on them and cannot guarantee they are housebroken.  They are all up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered and microchipped.  Update 8/8/24 We are deeply saddened that Seven, now called Sofia has been returned.  She was here initially for 8 long months before she found a home, mostly because she was a timid pup.  She was adopted out in October but her owner had a fall, and with broken bones is unbale to care for Sofia.  Her world has been turned upside down and we hope her stay with us in a short one.  She, now 2 yrs old, is looking for a quieter home. not a fan of a lot of traffic an noise.  She is energetic and once she gets to know you she will be your best friend.  She is used to long daily walks.  She is dog friendly.  Loves toys!  She has been exposed to older kids as well.     She has had a couple of seizures in the past, noting that warrants medication at this point.  Potential adopters just need to be aware and make sure consistent vet care is provided.   Sofia cannot wait to be out of the kennel and in a new home again where she will feel safe and loved.     8 months old.  25lbs.    Meet Seven! Seven is a high-energy dog with above average exercise needs, so she is looking for a family who is ready to keep up with her active lifestyle.  Seven is a playful and affectionate dog who loves to run, play, and go on long walks. She gets along well with other dogs, so she would make a great addition to a household with plenty of room to play and explore. Fenced yard, pre-registered obedience class required.  *Per JSAC policy, puppies and kittens under 6 months will not be adopted to families with children under the age of 6 years.November 5, 2024, 5:11 pm
