About Jade Lovekins

Meet Jade Lovekins! This sweet senior girl found her way to us from the Philadelphia animal control shelter at the age of 13. Her previous owners, who had cherished her since she was just three months old, had to surrender her due to their own health issues. Despite this upheaval, Jade has adapted beautifully and is now ready to find a loving forever home where she can truly enjoy her golden years. Jade is a laid-back companion who appreciates her daily walks and car rides. She thrives on meeting new people and pets, radiating a calming presence. With her kind temperament, she has coexisted with dogs, cats, and children in the past; however, she prefers to eat her meals alone and may become a bit protective over her food. Given her age, she would be more comfortable in a home with older kids. Though she enjoys her fair share of naps, Jade remains quite active and navigates stairs easily, showing that age is just a number! Since arriving at the rescue, Jade has received comprehensive veterinary care, including spaying and a dental cleaning. She manages her hypothyroidism with a daily medication, which is quite common among senior dogs. Apart from some mild arthritis, Jade feels fantastic and is ready to find someone who will cherish her. Jade is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and currently in foster care.
