My story

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

#A5741627 Jake is a 1-year, 1-month-old neutered male Terrier  mix with a brown and black coat and a big personality packed into a perfectly manageable 19 lbs. Found as a stray on November 30, Jake may have some larger-breed mix in him — he’s sturdy, confident, and carries himself like a much bigger dog. His tail sticks straight up and waves like a little banner when he’s exploring, which only adds to his charm.

Jake is feisty, curious, and full of character. He can be a bit shy about head pets at first, so he’ll need someone patient who’s willing to build trust at his pace. Once he feels comfortable, he leans into his handler for affection and connection. He’s easy to handle, walks okay on leash, and may know “sit” with a little encouragement and treats. Jake is a fun, spunky little guy who thinks he’s a big dog — and he’s ready to find a home that appreciates his confidence and heart.

More about this rescue

United Hope for Animals is a 501c3 non-profit organization committed to creating a world where our relationship with animals is guided by compassion and responsibility. We actively work toward bringing an end to the needless suffering of companion animals through community-based programs here at home and across the border.

The United States euthanizes more than one million dogs and cats each year. Through our Shelter Support Program, we work in partnership with local shelters to reduce this number by raising public awareness about shelter adoption and facilitating rescue and adoption of sheltered animals. In the process, we bring dignity and hope to the many lives that would otherwise pass anonymously through the animal control system.
