Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Jackson will be coming to our adoption event at Guilford Fair Grounds on October 8th and 9th from 10am - 4pm. If you are interested in applying for Jackson, please click the link in the side bar to take you to our site. All application information is available along with all the other dogs coming to our event.
A little information about Jackson...
Hi! My name is Jackson and foster mom (FM) says I look kind of like a long-legged poodle mixed with maybe a shitzu . . . whatever, she says I'm super cute. I found myself all alone at a super scary place called a shelter but the shelter folks saw through my matted fur, got my cleaned up, then called my FM to see if she could help me. She said yes and came right away and got me. I'm still a little shy when first meeting folks but I love it when she picks me up and lets me cuddle. I get along with the other dogs here and ignore the cats. I'm a little picky when eating (have to keep my slim figure) but I keep my crate clean at night with no accidents. I'm probably about as big as I'm going to get at about 8mos old and only 11lbs. so I don't take up much room at all. If you would like to meet me and possibly give me that special forever home, please go to http://www.homewardboundct.org/want-to-adopt-a-dog/ and fill out an application . . . I will be waiting!
Jackson will be coming to our next event at:
Guilford Fair Grounds
Lovers Lane
Guilford, CT 06437
October 8th & 9th from 10 am - 4pm
Event information....
We are open to the public from 10 am to 4 pm. All final decisions are made by the rescues not Homeward Bound volunteers. If you are interested in this dog or any of our dogs please go to www.homewardboundct.org (copy and paste in browser window) and see all of the dogs coming and also fill out an application). Please note that most of these dogs are not in Connecticut and will be arriving the day prior so it is most likely not possible for you to meet them prior to the event.
If you are a first time dog owner we may require a home visit prior to adoption.
If you rent or live in a condo we will require proof that you are able to have a dog. This could be a copy of the lease or condo agreement.
All the residents in the household must come to the event along with any dog in your home for a meet and greet with our trainers.
Per the request of the rescues we may limit adoptions to only Connecticut homes due to the distance and support we give them. This again is strictly the rescues decision and hope you will honor that.
We also require a follow up visit with all families within a couple of months after the adoption.
Since we know there are many questions, please realize we will answer questions of those who have filled out an application first.
Adoption Fee is no more than $385. All dogs will be spayed/neutered, vaccinated to age and also micrcochipped.
If you have additional questions about our dogs feel free to contact us. Please understand that we are all volunteers and will try to get back to you as soon as possible. If it is close to our event we are very busy with pre-screening our applicants so please understand if we can't answer all your questions in a timely manner. Our goal is to make sure these dogs go to the best home possible.
