Description:
Jess is a total sweetheart! She’s roughly 7 months old and has overcome so much in her short life. She came to us with Parvo from Memphis where she was rescued from a negative environment. When her foster mom first picked her up she was shaking with fear, couldn’t stop crying, and wanted to be held 24/7. The picture of her in the sweater is when she first came to us. Fast forward to today and Jess is a vibrant, healthy, goofy pup who loves life. As you can see, after a little TLC her fur has filled completely in and she’s grown so much. She’s doing great with potty training (about 75% there), crate trained for both day time and sleeping (although she usually sleeps with her foster mom), working on basic commands, and is great with other dogs. She doesn’t have a cat or kids in her home so we don’t know how she would be with them. She is respectful of boundaries with her foster brothers though. We think she’s part Doberman / part cattle dog so she’s high energy and likes to herd. We wouldn’t recommend her for a home that has small children due to that. She would love to have a doggie sibling that loves to play and is patient with her when she’s being an annoying little sister. While she’s blossomed into an amazing little girl, her past has left marks on her heart. She can be timid and gets scared if scolded to forcefully. She would do well in a home with parents that can show her a lot of love and patience. She doesn’t love the leash (her past trauma) so we can’t guarantee that she’ll turn into a little adventurer. When she does go on walks, she naturally walks in a perfect heel. So if you would love a baby girl that loves to play as much as she loves to cuddle, fill out an app today!
