Story
Jolene is exquisite. When she first came to her foster home, she was so terrified she barely left her crate for four days. Slowly but surely, her puppy-like curiosity won over her fear, and over several weeks, she blossomed from barely tolerating being in the same room as her foster humans, to slowly warming up to their presence and finally accepting pets, following her humans around, and wanting to be in the same room. Jolene is still a shy girl, earning her the nickname Jolenie-Weenie, but her playful spirit and sweet disposition are shining through more each day. She is fiercely intelligent- she knows simple commands, quickly understood potty training, and learned to use a doorbell to ask to go outside. She loves going outside to run and play, but is still terrified of the leash and therefore hasn’t been able to go on walks yet. She would do best in a home with a larger fenced-in yard for her to play and run off her puppy energy. She loves other dogs and would do well in a home with another dog to play with and help her gain some confidence.  She does well in her crate and with potty training—does well with going outside to potty, and knows to use puppy pads for accidents/emergencies. She learned to use the doorbell within two days (Pro: knows to use the doorbell to go outside to potty. Con: loves to go outside and will ring the doorbell even if the door is open if she wants you to come outside with her to play.) She’s got lots of adorable playful puppy energy. She’s a talented chewer—soft toys don’t stand a chance! She does still chew on other things like a puppy and has a special affinity for shoes, but she’s quickly learning and understanding what is ok to chew on and what is not ok, but will need ongoing patience and instruction. Jolene is looking for a home with humans who have plenty of love and patience to work with her on overcoming her fear of the leash, continue working on her with training, and will give her time and space to readjust as she transitions to her new home. Her fosters love her so deeply, but know there is a family out there who will be perfect for Jolene to thrive with.  ##2528637##
