Adoptable Dogs and Puppies

Hi I am Jenni, an 8 year old 65 pound pit mix. I have had a rough start to life and am learning what life is like inside a home and I absolutely love it! My favorite thing to do is run and play with balls. I have not quite learned the concept of bringing the ball back though, and I love to find some great hiding spots throughout the yard. Cow ears are my favorite treat but I am not a picky eater so I will try just about anything. I forgot to mention that I just LOVE toys but they do not stand a chance around me! I know some basic commands and I am learning leash manners. I am also house and crate trained and get along great with all of my humans. I am dog selective so I would like to meet other dogs before coming home if I am not the only dog. I have a high prey drive, so cats and I do not get along very well. After running and playing, I love snuggling up in a nice blanket and getting some love and rubs! I am now looking for my forever family, one that will love me and give me the home I know I deserve!

Meet Cookie! Her name should be bubbles because that is her favorite game. Cookie will chase bubbles all day. Cookie is about 3 years old. She is a lovable mix breed female. All her shots are up to date and she is spayed. She is looking for a forever home ready to accept all the love she has to give. She loves to cuddle on the couch with you and will not wake you up at 5am to eat. Cookie likes to sleep in. She is house broken but is very talented at getting out of a crate. She would be best in a house without cats. She does ok with other dogs but likes attention so an only animal house would be ideal. She does well with kids and would do well in a house with school age kids and older. Cookie gets very excited when kids are playing and wants to get in the middle of the action. She walks well on a leash and does well on car rides. She is a very easy going dog. She is not a jumper unless you let her, but we encourage her not to jump up on people when greeting them. She loves a tennis ball but not the best at giving them back. She has mastered sit and shake. Do you have room on your couch and your lap for Cookie who is so full of love?

BRUNO OCTOBER UPDATE - His transformation is AMAZING!!! You would not believe the change in this beautiful boy! When he arrived, he was very overweight, confused and sad. With walks, thyroid meds and a big yard to explore, he has dramatically dropped the pounds and gained so much more energy and silliness. He now gallops up and down the steps he struggled to climb up that first night. Bruno loves being inside with his foster mom but will sit at his favorite window and sound off at the delivery trucks, yard crews and kids playing in view - even hummingbirds! Bruno dances around when he sees the leash for his walks and loves being brushed. He feels so much better and is so ready to find his forever family! He knows they are out there somewhere looking for him too! BRUNO AUGUST UPDATE - Down to a spunky 95 pounds and jumped in the car ready to go!!! BRUNO UPDATE- Bruno has shed some excess weigh and is now down to 111 pounds and getting more active. He does have a thyroid issue and is taking medicine to control that (which is relatively cheap), so he is really ready for the next adventure in his life! Bruno is a handsome extra-large mixed breed weighing 129 pounds! He is 7.5 years old, house trained, heartworm negative, current on vaccines and pretty easy-going. He has a chill temperament but will alert you if strangers are about and not take them for granted, otherwise just quietly hanging out with his people is his favorite thing to do. He is dog social (does well at a dog park), but is not up for a rough-housing canine relationship. He has been fine with children, but we recommend no small children. Bruno needs to lose weight and although he is a large framed dog he is putting a strain on his body carrying the extra weight and showing weakness in his rear legs on stairs and we are working to help him lose those extra pounds. Bruno is a JCAPL alumni. He was adopted out at 3 months of age and has been returned, due to no fault of his. His adopter is ill and having to relocate to seek medical attention and leaving Bruno is heartbreaking. Are you interested in adopting Bruno or another JCAPL pet you have seen?
