Jack's Info...
| Breed: | English (Redtick) Coonhound/Labrador Retriever Mix | Color: | Black - With White | Age: | Senior |
| Size: | Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg) | Sex: | Male |
Jack is a healthy, active, and happy ten year old Coonhound/Lab mix. He LOVES to run. While well behaved inside (spends most of the day sleeping after his adventures), he will waste no time dragging you down to the neighborhood dog park. He is good with dogs of all size, ages, and temperaments. He is a goofy boy who finds joy in being alive, shown with a huge smile constantly decorating his face. He would be an excellent jogging companion. He is also good with kids, and very gentle with them.
He and his sister have been together since birth, and cannot be separated under any circumstances.
Rescue Group Info...
We are a new organization founded in memory of an eight year old black German Shepherd/Chow named Cayleb. His story is a sad one, but one that inspired our founder to save others like him. He was taken in as a lost dog to a county shelter, and after three long months, he was beginning to reach the end of his given time. When our founder peered into his kennel, he looked intimidating and scared. She couldn't resist adopting him. As soon as he got outside, he started giving kisses, and happily hopped in the back seat of the car without hesitation. Cayleb quickly became best friends with the founder's current dog (a very dog shy poodle), as well as with everyone he met.
Unfortunately, after a month of morning runs and trips to the dog park, Cayleb began to go down hill quickly. When x-rayed, an inoperable mass was found in his liver, and our founder had to make the tough decision to let him go on July 13th, 2012.
A few weeks later, Cayleb's Kindred Senior Dog Rescue was formed, to help all of Cayleb's "kindred spirits" find loving homes to live out the rest of their days in.
We have had dogs as old as 20 years old in our rescue, and as young as 8. We have all breeds, from Dachshunds to Mastiffs, Coonhounds to Wirehaired Pointing Griffons.
We love our seniors, and hope to spread that love with everyone else!
