Jersey is a gem among rescue dogs. Although she came from a commercial breeder, she needs no socialization. She loves people, animals and has thrived in her foster home. She happily spends her days close to one of the humans curled up on a bed or blankets. Her greatest moments involve bones or bully sticks, but she loves a good chew toy too.
She is persistent with her foster siblings in playing and has even convinced her much larger foster sister that it's ok to wrestle with her. She will play fetch for hours if you let her and is wonderful on her leash/harness for walks. The snow and cold do not seem to bother her and outdoor play would be great for her and will probably help her with her potty training. She travels well and has made everyone she meets fall in love with her. She is looking for a perfect family that can keep up with her energy, will snuggle with her and won't mind carrying her around like a baby.

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
