Meet Jimmy
Jimmy’s story almost ended far too soon. He was found as a stray and taken to the shelter, where fear and stress nearly cost him his life. Thankfully, he was rescued just in time — and today he’s thriving in his foster home.
Jimmy is about 2 years old, neutered, and dog-friendly. He loves being around people and absolutely soaks up affection, though he can be a little shy at first. Once he trusts you, he’s incredibly loving and loyal.
In the beginning, he had some trauma related to leashes and harnesses, but he’s made great progress and now enjoys his walks.
He loves playing with his foster siblings, and one of his cutest quirks is “dancing” on his hind legs when he’s happy. He’s very affectionate, adores cuddles and tasty treats, and sleeps quietly through the night in his crate.
Jimmy is pretty much housebroken — he’ll go potty outside but may still use pee pads indoors sometimes.
He hasn’t been around kids yet, so we’re not sure how he feels about them, but with slow introductions and a gentle environment, he may do just fine.
This sweet boy is ready for his second chance at life. He will be a wonderful companion for a loving, patient family who will help him continue to blossom.
If you are not ready to adopt just yet and would like to help in other ways, please consider clicking on the green “Sponsor Me” button above to help this dog receive the best care we can give. We rely on the generosity of others to make rescuing dogs possible.
