My story

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

PLEASE READ ALL INFO ! Jessie will need very special adopters ! Her puppymill life has left her with;issues that will need continued work and help. We will be taking applications in an effort to find that perfect family or person who will want to help her learn to be a normal doggie. If you feel you could be the right person please read her bio. Jessie is a very special case, beautiful and unique, although her heritage is unsure. She will need a very special person or sm family who will be able to help her grow and develop into a more confident, assured young girl. Her history is very sad. She was actually confiscated by police from a terrible puppymill, in bad shape. She has made great progress since coming into foster. She LOVES other dogs, has no interest in cats. She is housetrained, and walks on a leash beautifully. She loves to go for walks, but is hesitant during the daytime when strangers are around. At night, she feels comfortable and enjoys every minute. She does sleep in a crate at night, but much prefers being with her people the rest of the time.
She is learning to trust people, but slowly. Women are her favorites, although she has learned to love her foster Dad. However, she is very scared of meeting new people, particularly men. This little girl will need time to continue to adjust to a normal life. Many things still scare her, and she will need a sm family who is willing to continue to work with her on this. She would most enjoy a home in which there is another dog. A fenced in yard is a big plus. She is up to date on vaccines and spayed. She weighs about 17-18 lbs. For more info, please contact foster mom Chris at chrismorr@live.com. Vet check and adoption application apply. Again, Jessis would not be a good choice for a family looking for a dog who will fit right into the home, I have no doubt that she will eventually, but socializing will need to continue.
