My story

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

My name is Jewels and I am a true GEM of a dog. I am a Black Mouth Cur Mix. The shelter handlers say I am a sweet guarded girl who just needs confidence with strangers. I attach to people very quickly once I get to know them and I have a calm demeanor. I speak when I have something to say. I know how to sit and stay, and love being with my person. I would make an EXCELLENT ranch dog as I’m very outdoorsy. PLUS, I’m dog friendly too!

The shelter says that I can only be released to a Rescue Group due to behavior with strangers . They just never gave me the training to understand that strangers can be friends too. I sometimes growl and my back hackles go up when I am approached by a stranger because, well, I am afraid of what they might do to me.

I was very well taken care of so I'm very sad that my owner didn’t come to find me. I sure hope they are OK. I’m potty trained with no medical history and weigh about 50 pounds.

To learn more about me, or any of our other amazing, foster / adoptable dogs, please visit our website at www.passionforpitties.com. If I’m not yet listed on the website, you can still fill out an application under the “Foster” or “Adopt” headers. If you are a Rescue Group, you can also contact the shelter below to inquire about pulling directly from them.
