Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Where are our senior lovers at? Jake is another example of a dog that would have been very easy for us to adopt out 10 years ago. He's a great dog and very cute, but will need an adopter who is open to special-needs, which has been increasingly difficult for us to find.
www.speedwayanimalrescue.org/adoption-application
Jake is quirky. Actually, he's one of the quirkier dogs we've had in a while, and we've had a lot of weirdos.
Here are the challenging aspects of Jake:
-can be dog selective. Of the 6 dogs he regularly interacts with, he likes 4
-he is on Keppra for seizures, which are well-controlled
-he is on Prozac
-he's a runner and will need a secure yard
-we would recommend a belly band while he transitions to your home. He is mostly potty trained but will mark if other dogs are markers
-best in a home without children
-best in a home without cats
His best qualities:
-he is CUTE!
-he is pretty low maintenance. He enjoys walks, but also enjoys being a couch potato
-he is pretty self-sufficient
-he has good recall
-he is crate trained in that he is calm while he is in the crate, but could use work on willingly going into the crate
-he is truly a good boy
The nitty-gritty:
-approx 9 years old
-27 lbs
-neutered
-vaccinated
-HW negative
-microchipped
-recent dental
-DNA tested: mini schnauzer, chihuahua, min pin, pomeranian

More about this rescue
We are a small non-profit rescue focused on the 4.77 square mile town of Speedway, Indiana, home of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Our goal is to make Speedway a no-kill town where every animal is spayed/neutered, microchipped and properly cared for. We rescue all animals taken to the town's Animal Control facility. We assist owners in need with veterinary care and food/supplies. We help trap-neuter-release feral cat colonies and socialize/adopt kittens under 3 months old.
Due to limited resources, we are unable to accept animals from outside the town's boundaries at this time.
