About Jamie
Jamie is a 1-year-old, 25-pound brown and white mixed-breed dog who radiates equal parts warmth and alert curiosity. She blends shyness and affection, often seeking the comfort of a familiar lap or climbing into a heap of pillows for a nap. Jamie is happiest when another friendly dog is close, like her best friend Oakley, and her confidence blossoms around canine companions. She enjoys playful romps, brisk walks, and has a soft spot for interactive games. Jamie already knows several commands—"sit," "down," "leave it," and "touch"—and is fully potty trained. Walks are her strong suit; she’ll stop and sit right alongside you. This smart girl is gentle around food and polite, even when left unsupervised. Jamie’s prey drive keeps squirrels and geese interesting, but with the right introductions, she can coexist with cats. Her main challenge is separation anxiety. Jamie can become stressed if left alone, so she needs a home where someone is present most of the time, plus another confident dog for reassurance. New people, especially men, can make her hesitant, though with patience she opens up and bonds strongly, especially with women who speak her language. Jamie’s routines include gathering her toys after alone time and snuggling when she feels safe—clear signs of a dog who thrives in a caring, consistent environment. She’ll flourish with a patient adopter who can give her plenty of companionship, positive experiences, and structure. Click apply to start the adoption process.
