Estimated to be about 5-8 years old. Rescued from a animal hoarding situation with a yard of about 30 dogs. Slightly timid, but warming up fast. Still working on learning the leash, but loves to just sit on your lap or follow you around the yard. Not a fan of kids. Neutered, up to date on shots, and microchiped.

Story
Hi my name is Jack! I love people, petting, and all the attention I can get. Car rides, hiking, going for walks, and guarding the yard are some of the things I like to do. I really like stuffed animals, but don’t usually chew them up, just carry them around. I get along with most dogs, but if challenged I will defend myself. I was starved before my foster family took me in, so I guard my food and bones from other dogs. I’m happy to share with my humans though. I love people so much! Currently I live with several dogs from 4-80 pounds and play nicely with all of them. My foster mom would be happy to bring me over to meet your dogs and see if we could be friends. When can we go for a ride?!

Get ready for the greatest love of your life!!! Please learn more about us and our available pets at Robin Hood Animal Rescue. In Max's words:   'I had a confusing family life and had to be returned to Robin Hood Animal Rescue. I thought that I was being attacked and I responded with a bite. I felt so bad after that happened, but my human mom didn't want me any longer as a member of the family. I probably need a quiet family. Not a dull family, but a family that is not loud or rambunctious. I do fine with other dogs.  After what I went through with my previous adopted family, I am unsure if I can handle young children. Please let me show you what a wonderful boy I can be.” As with all our foster dogs/puppies, Max has been altered, microchipped, and has had his shots.

Story
Get ready for the greatest love of your life!!! Please learn more about us and our available pets at Robin Hood Animal Rescue. In Rusty's words:  “I found myself out on the streets. Two kindhearted ladies took me to be scanned and although the animal hospital they took me to would have nothing to do with me after I was scanned, they decided to wait outside in the summer heat until Robin Hood Animal Rescue showed up to take me home with them.  The family who adopted me could not be found. But true to their word, Robin Hood Animal Rescue took me back and now is going to find me a better family. They are upset that family didn't keep their promise to love me and care for me forever. They will be careful that my new family will keep their promise to love me forever. I have to be honest, and say that it may take me awhile to trust my new family. But I am sure that with patience and understanding, I will be the perfect fur kid. I have to say that sometimes when folks approach me too quickly, I go on alert: stranger danger mode. I need to be assured that I will be safe.” As with all our foster dogs/puppies, Rusty has been altered, microchipped, and has had his shots.

But then I realized that I was safe and that I should trust these humans. I keep forgetting that I am a BIG GIRL and have to be careful that I don't plow her down. Now, my foster mom laughs when I come rushing up to her. I will need a family who will be patient and understanding of me as I navigate the journey of love and trust.
