About Jamie

Jamie is a sweet girl who may be shy at first but warms up quickly. She absolutely loves other dogs, making her a great fit for a multi-pet household. Jamie has a playful side and enjoys her toys, treats, and chew bones. She's not a big barker and is an overall gem. At around 2-3 years old and weighing approximately 12-14 lbs, Jamie has short fur and exhibits age-appropriate energy. Although she was found as a stray with an unfortunate eye issue that has since been addressed, she’s full of life and ready to be spoiled. Jamie is potty trained in her current setting, does well in a crate, and loves being around people as well as enjoying quiet time. She’s currently working on her leash manners and is making excellent progress. Jamie would make a fabulous companion and car ride buddy, and she continues to impress with her adaptability. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccines, dewormed, and microchipped, so she’s all set to find her forever home. This little spitfire deserves all the love she can get. What are you waiting for?
