About Jellybean

Meet Jellybean: The Solo Act Personality: A world-class snuggler who lives by the motto, "I'm the only dog you'll ever need." (Seriously, no other doggie roommates please). Talents: High-level agility, gate-jumping, and professional-grade door opening. Lock your snacks away. Communication: She's vocal and has a 100% success rate at telling you when it's potty time. The "Dachshund" Life: Strong prey drive and a confident spirit. She's an absolute dream on a leash-right up until she spots a squirrel. Loves to play and will engage with her human with toys. Work Ethic: Highly food-motivated. She has quickly learned "sit" and understands some hand gestures such as up, down, and stay (though stay is currently "under review"). Bonus Feature: Comes equipped with a tiny, adorable snore for maximum nap-time ambiance. *Jellybean was treated for Heartworms in February. She may sill test positive for up to a year from treatment. Hope to see you soon! ********************************************************************* Schedule a meet-and-greet by completing our Adoption Survey on the Adopt page of our website at https://www.olddominionhumanesociety.org/adoption-survey.
