A Note from the Foster: Nickname: Cici (aka Princess Sassypaws)

Breed: Fun-Size Jack Russell Terrier
Age: 5 years
Weight: 11 pounds of attitude and love

Likes: My human AND CHEESE, choosing the walking route AND CHEESE, being the boss AND CHEESE, allowing you to sit next to me on the couch AND CHEESE.

Dislikes: Men (they smell funny anyways), new places (at first), and any plan that is not my own.

I’m a pint-sized powerhouse with stubby legs and a survivor’s spirit. I spent my first 5 years in a cage, so new things freak me out a little. I’ve had to take anxiety meds to feel safe in this big, weird world and honestly, I think everyone should. But give me some time and space, and I’ll become your fiercest little shadow.

I love walks… as long as I’m the GPS and YOU follow me. Try to go in your direction? Get ready for me to plant myself like a rose bush with thorns. I’ll just sit and give my famous stink eye as if you just stepped on me. I like to take my time to smell the roses (or other not so pleasant smells).  

I like other dogs. They are fun to play with when I’m in the mood. I just need to get to know them before I’m comfortable around them. I prefer those that respect my space. 

I do great being left alone in the office. Just give my 11 lb. body complete reign over the best room in the house when you’re gone, and I’ll guard the desk and office supplies like Dwight Shrute.

Kennels? Maybe never. I’ve done hard time. I’m all about freedom, self management with boundaries I set, and of course CHEESE.

Loyal to a fault, loving on my terms, and delightfully sassy. Basically, I’m the CEO of the home, your life and your time and you’re just lucky to work here.

Adoption Fee: $500 + tax

Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
