At 2 years old, Bessie is the perfect blend of spunky and sweet—a Papillon and Jack Russell Terrier Mix with a bright spirit and an even brighter future ahead. She was found in Highland on Easter alongside her pals Bernie and Birdie, like a little trio straight out of a storybook. While her past is a mystery, one thing is clear—Bessie is resilient, loving, and ready to start her next chapter. With her expressive eyes and lively personality, Bessie brings a spark wherever she goes. She’s curious, affectionate, and always up for a little adventure, followed by some well-earned cuddles. Now all she needs is a home to call her own—and someone to love her as much as she’ll love them. We hold an event every weekend at our facility on SATURDAY and SUNDAY 11-5pm and open to the public. It is first come first serve we do not evaluate applications prior to an event. If there are multiple interested parties in the same dog or puppy at the same time we would pick the best out of the 10 applications. Please visit our social media platforms for the specifics for each weekend as it changes from week to week. Please find our application at lovejoyfoundation.org when you come to an event please bring that filled out in hand with you. You can find our application at Lovejoyfoundation.org. Please note a Petfinder and Adoptapet Inquiry is not applying for the dog. You have to come to the event or send an email inquiry to our records email.
