STACY - BEAGLE / JACK RUSSELL TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Beagle / Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Stacy is a sweet, playful, and independent girl.. She still has her puppy energy and enjoys playtime, but when it’s time to relax, she’s more than happy to cuddle up with her favorite humans. She’s affectionate and expressive — when you pet her, she smiles and shows her happiness with the most adorable little tongue “blehps.” She has a graceful, agile way about her, almost cat-like in how she moves and carries herself. Despite not having much formal training, Stacy is a very good listener and already obeys commands well, she will be enjoyable for her future family to train and watch her blossom. Stacy seems to prefer people over other dogs, but having another dog in the home is not a deal breaker. She would just need a bit of time and patience to warm up and adjust. Her love for food is very strong — she begs and trends toward food-obsessed — which is likely a result of her past. Stacy was found alongside her sister in the middle of a busy road, searching for food, and it’s believed she experienced starvation before being rescued. We strongly recommend feeding her inside her kennel because of this. With consistency, love, and reassurance, she continues to learn that she is safe now. Stacy is happiest in a home that can provide structure, patience, and consistency, along with plenty of love, attention, and enrichment. She’s a thoughtful, affectionate companion who will thrive with someone who appreciates her unique personality. Stacy is from Texas.
