About Jasmine

Start your journey together! Apply now. Jasmine has blossomed in her foster home, eagerly adapting to new experiences and meeting people from all walks of life. Despite an old injury from leaping a baby gate—leaving her with partial use of her front leg—she remains just as spirited, never letting it slow her down. Now a happy adult, she weighs a perfect medium size and sports a glossy, short coat. She endured tough times living on the streets and survived much hardship before finally finding someone who cared. Once seriously ill, Jasmine is now healthy, vaccinated, and loving her new life indoors. Smart and eager to please, she delights in zooming around the house, flinging her toys, and learning new things. Crate trained and car-friendly, she’s also picking up leash skills and enjoys neighborhood strolls where she soaks up attention from friendly faces. While Jasmine has a keen interest in squirrels and should not live with cats, she’s wonderful with smaller dogs (under 30 lbs) and enjoys the company of her foster siblings. After some active playtime, she’s all about cuddles on the sofa, making her a great match for both relaxed and active lifestyles. She’s ready to embrace her forever home and fill it with joy, laughter, and love. Out-of-area adopters should note an in-person meet is required. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
