My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sweet little Jasper is approx 1 year old and 6 lbs. This petite pup will melt your heart. He’s beyond cute with those scruffy ears and shiny, black nose. This guy has a super big personality. He likes to play, cuddle and give kisses. He comes to his name and is getting along well with my other dogs and cats. In fact, he doesn’t seem to be phased by much. He’s a happy go-lucky little guy.
He does well off leash, but needs a little work on leash. He loves to hang out with his humans and nap in the sunshine.

Jasper came from a household where he was extremely neglected and living in a house of filth, feces and urine. He was rarely let outside, had some bites from another dog, skin issues and was covered in fleas when he was brought to rescue. Due to this, he marks and needs to be potty trained. I’m working with him on both, but it’s not going to happen over night. We use a doggy diaper or a “belly band” in the house. Jasper needs to go to a home that will keep working with him on this issue. If you are willing to do the work, you will be rewarded with a super sweet guy that will be your best cuddle buddy.
