About Jj

Meet Jj, a lovely 8-year-old mixed breed who is ready for her forever home. She came to us from an owner surrender due to financial hardships but has maintained her sweet and easygoing demeanor. Jj is the perfect blend of a couch companion and an adventure buddy. She enjoys car rides, being part of family activities, and just hanging out with her humans. While she appreciates affection, she values her independence and will approach for cuddles on her own terms. Jj has a calm temperament and demonstrates excellent house manners; you won't find her counter surfing or rummaging through the trash. She walks beautifully on a leash, whether in a harness or collar, which makes outings a breeze. She gets along well with other dogs and has shown she can be great with kids of all ages. Though her behavior with cats is unknown, she shows little interest, which could mean a peaceful coexistence. One thing to note is that Jj gets a bit nervous during storms and might seek refuge during bad weather. Additionally, she has a habit of chewing her nails when they're too long. This smart girl already knows the command 'sit' and likely has more tricks up her sleeve. Jj is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to go. To adopt her, the fee is $450. If you think Jj could be a great fit for you, consider applying today!
