Story
Hi! My name is Jocasta. I’m a sweet girl who just wants love, cuddles, and attention. I love spending time outside playing in the yard or going for a nice stroll around the neighborhood. I’m very friendly on the leash and enjoy being with people so much that I don’t want to go back to my kennel—I just want to stay close to you. I’m selective with other dogs and do well with kids, though I’m not sure about cats yet. I’m ready for a loving home where I can get plenty of hugs and affection.To adopt one of our animals, please visit our shelter, open Tuesday-Friday from Noon-5pm and Saturday from Noon-4pm.
