Story
Meet one of the Dolly Parton Litter puppies! Mama and puppies came to JoJo's the day after the world lost Dolly Parton, so we named this litter in her memory. Sweet mama Dolly's neglectful owner did not get her spayed and she had a litter of 7 puppies. She and the puppies were in a terrible situation – tied up and many times not even within reach of food and water. Dolly, though, was an absolutely incredible mom to these puppies. When they came to us at 8 weeks old, they had never had puppy food yet – they were still nursing and sweet Dolly was letting them and still taking care of them weeks after she should have been able to start weaning. The puppies immediately gobbled up puppy food – they were more than ready to start eating – and Dolly was very happy to give up her mama role. Dolly is a sweet girl and is coming out of her shell now that she doesn't have to be guarding and protecting her puppies. The puppies are all adorable, well-nourished now, and got a clean bill of health from our vet when they got their first round of puppy shots. Considering the circumstances they came from, this is pretty amazing. Although we don't know what mama is, she is about 40 lbs and 4 years old. She has pointy ears and we're thinking maybe a Feist or small Shepherd mix based on size and appearance, but that is just a guess. We believe that Dad dog must have been a Labrador Retriever because that is what every single puppy looks like. At 8 weeks they all weigh right around 8 lbs, so are on target to be about 60 lb adult dogs. If you think you might want to give this sweet pup a home, please email jojosdogrescue@gmail.com and we will send you an application, or visit our website: www.jojosdoghouse.com and download one. Adoption fee is $250, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, parasite treatment, and microchip with lifetime registration. Please visit our Facebook page JoJo's DogHouse (non-profit) to learn more about us and see many of the dogs we have rescued. We hope you'll join JoJo's family of adopters!

Story
There's something about Harry This adorable little guy was found in a ditch by a good Samaritan who took him in until they could find a rescue to help him. Can you even imagine how something like that might happen? But he's all good now He was estimated to be about 4 months old at the time they found him and he's been with us three weeks until we could get him a vet visit and vaccinations. Our vet estimated he is about six months old. He weighed 18 lbs at his exam, so he is likely to stay under 25 lbs when full grown -- although if he grows into those ears, he will be 80 lbs! He has great big ears, but only half a tail! Harry is just the sweetest boy to everyone he meets, and he loves playing with all kinds of other dogs in doggy daycare. If you'd like to give a small-ish love bug a forever home, please email jojosdogrescue@gmail.com and we will send you an application, or visit our website: www.jojosdoghouse.com and download one. Adoption fee is $250, which includes up-to-date vaccinations, parasite treatment, and microchip with lifetime registration. Please visit our Facebook page JoJo's DogHouse (non-profit) to learn more about us and see many of the dogs we have rescued. We hope you'll join JoJo's family of adopters!
