Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi there, I’m Jackie—though my first family called me Junie, so I’ll happily answer to either! I’m a sweet, potty-trained girl with a heart full of love to share. While the world still feels a little big and scary to me, I’m learning to trust it one kind person at a time. I can be shy, especially around men, but with gentle encouragement and patience, my playful and loving side starts to shine. I’m a doggy social butterfly and feel most confident with a friendly, older pup sibling to guide me. Bonus points if they’re calm and can show me the ropes! I also do great with cats—yes, I’m that well-mannered—and I’m kennel-trained, sleeping peacefully through the night like a pro. I already know some basic cues like “sit” and “stay,” and I love going on walks, especially when I have a routine to rely on. Because I’m still working on building my confidence, a quieter home with older kids who understand my need for space would be perfect for me. My ideal family is one that can offer love, patience, and a nurturing environment where I can continue to blossom. I was adopted as a puppy and loved dearly, but I recently came back to Ruff Start Rescue through no fault of my own. My previous adopters took great care of me, but I need someone who can give me just a bit more time to feel secure and truly thrive. If you have a kind heart, a cozy spot on your couch, and a pup friend to help me find my footing, I’d love to meet you! Let’s take the first step toward a lifetime of love and companionship.
