About Jolene

Jolene is a charming 2-year-old Aussiedoodle with a striking merle coat and a gentle demeanor. She thrives indoors, is housetrained, and enjoys the company of other dogs. With a soft temperament, she might also get along with cats, provided introductions are done with care. In her previous home, Jolene was comfortable around children, but due to her timid nature, she may not be the best match for active kids or those under 10. A calm home where she can acclimate at her own pace would suit her best. She tends to be wary of men initially but warms up quickly when given patience and space. Once she feels secure, Jolene becomes incredibly affectionate and loves to be close to her people. Potential adopters should be aware that although she is housetrained, she might need a bit of guidance when settling into a new environment. Regular professional grooming will also be necessary to maintain her beautiful coat, so grooming references will be part of the application process. Jolene is ready for a loving home that understands her need for patience and reassurance. In return, you will find a devoted companion eager to share her love. Her adoption fee is $200, and she comes spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, on prevention, and microchipped. Ready to give Jolene the loving home she deserves?
