Story
Miss Zoë Skye is a full-bred toy poodle. She has very unique markings, which make her stand out. She is loving, calm, friendly, playful, gentle, and very smart. As a nurse, my work schedule will not allow me to give her the time and attention she needs. She is 12-weeks old. She deserves a great home.

Story
Nellie is a sweet and active 3 yo terrier who LOVES her toys! This playful girl loves to play chase and spend time with her foster Mom, and especially loves to play with the other dogs and cats in the home. Nellie takes some time to warm up to new people, but will eventually become extremely bonded to her new family. Because Nellie is so shy with new people, introductions will be done at the foster home and applicants should be prepared to spend some time with her during the introduction to allow her to warm up and show her true sweet personality. Nellie is UTD on vaccinations, spayed and microchipped. If interested in meeting Nellie, please complete an application at jellysplace.org.

Chewbarka is only 9 months old and 2 pounds, but so heavy on charm and sweetness! He may be shy in new situations, but quickly warms up and asks for lots of love and pets. Chewbarka has not shown any reactivity towards other dogs, and loves people. Chewbarka came from a kill shelter where he was diagnosed brachycephalic with a heart murmur.

Story
Sylvester is a wonderful, happy, affectionate black lab mix who is the perfect family dog. Sylvester has been staying at the home of one of our volunteers who has this to say about him: “Sylvester is an all around amazing dog. He’s great with my 3 year old and 3 month old kids. He can stay calm inside for hours which would make him a great work-from-home dog, he’s very affectionate, he’s great on a leash and isn’t reactive at all to any person or animal. He’s just about perfect!” He was found in Stockton with a broken jaw, which has healed very well on its own. His Vet does not recommend rebreaking it because it will weaken his jaw. Sylvester walks great on a leash, rides well in a car and loves hanging out on the couch with his favorite people. Sylvester loves anything that squeaks and is excited to go through our informal agility course. He knows sit and down and is working on stay. He is a sweet boy who would do well with an active family with kids who like to go on adventures, take long walks or jog around the neighborhood and chill on the couch. He gets along with other dogs and cats and all people. Sylvester is neutered, microchipped and UTD on his vaccines. If you want to meet Sylvester, please apply at jellysplace.org/forms
