Jayne - Jack Russell Terrier Dog For Adoption

h another dog friend (already adopted) and I’m so happy to be here getting lots of love and needed medical care while I wait for my forever home (see medical below). I’m in a wonderful foster home now, waiting for my furever family to find me! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I came in with a dog that I liked and have met other dogs that were about my size at Mostly Mutts and though I wasn’t ready to play with them, I also did not show any aggression. I spent a week in a home with another nice dog, and we coexisted well together, and I like the low-key female chihuahua in my current foster home, so if you have a nice dog at home that’s not looking for a playmate, let’s meet! / I ignore the cats in my foster home and don’t mind if they approach me. All cats are different, so I’m not sure how I would be with another cat. / I like the gentle 7-year-old boy in my foster home and even like to snuggle with him, so let’s meet and best no very young kids since I’m an older gal. · PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a super sweet little lady who just wants the simple things in life – people to spend my time with, soft fluffy blankets to burrow into and a cozy, squishy bed to relax in. My foster says I’m not the average 12-year-old girl and really need some exercise (1-2 miles) every day to be my best self. I whine a bit asking for my walk, walk perfectly on my leash and haven’t had any reactions to anyone we pass. I really enjoy a routine and now that I have adjusted to my foster family’s pattern, I am really thriving. I’m calm unless left alone, friendly, and absolutely adore being with people. I settle in quickly and love to keep my favorite humans close, so a stay-at-home or work-from-home family with a consistent schedule would be perfect for me! I do tend to bark pretty loudly when I’m left alone (but my foster says I’m not a barky dog in general) so I’m not the best fit for apartment or condo living – but in the right home, I’ll be your loving, loyal little companion and I’ll make sure you always know you are loved. My foster says I am a “SUPER sweet and very chill dog who just wants to hang out with her people (and she makes friends with everyone very easily).” / My energy level is 2-4. · SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I know the ‘sit’ command and walk nicely on a leash - I’m sure I can learn more if you would like to teach me. / I’m not a big fan of being in a crate separated from my people and can be loud in it. In one of my temporary foster homes, I did like resting in it with the door open. / My foster says that my potty habits are good - I sleep through the night and that I let her know every few hours during the day that I need to go outside and have not had any accidents in their home – yay me! · LIKES/DISLIKES: I love going outside for my daily walks and despite my age, I have the stamina to walk briskly for a few miles – nothing beats breathing in the cool, crisp air! I’m a big fan of snuggling up together afterward. Beef liver dog treats are yummy, and honestly, just being with people makes me the happiest little pup around. I like to follow my people around (my foster says “not annoyingly so” lol) and enjoy routine. I also enjoy car rides so you can take me places with you! / In addition to not being a fan of being alone much, loud noises startle me. I’m also sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, and training. · MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and spayed. I’m taking an anxiety medication to help with shelter stress and it’s very possible that I’ll be able to come off this gradually as I settle into my new home. My foster says this is very likely as I’ve already made so much progress settling in with them. I came in with severe dental disease, and thankfully I’ve just had a good dental cleaning as well as 2 warts removed from my face. I’ve got a grade 3/6 heart murmur that does not require medication at this time and may improve now that I’ve had a good dental cleaning. I am looking for a wonderful home where I will be a cherished family member! My adoption fee is $100.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.
