SENIORS NEED HOMES TOO! Charlotte is a senior Lhasa Apso mix. She’s approximately 9.5 years old and is looking for a family that will have patience as she learns to trust and be comfortable in their home. She has been with her foster family for several weeks and is feeling at home with them. They have a young, active dog that Charlotte gets along with but doesn’t play with yet. She does well with children 8 years and older who understand that she doesn’t play or like to be picked up, but that may change with time as she learns to be comfortable with them. However she does like to snuggle and be petted and will jump up in laps. She sleeps in her crate at night and likes to nap there during the day, She is house broken and her fosters are comfortable with leaving her loose in the house when they are away for short periods of time, Charlotte is currently being treated for an eye condition (typical in this breed) that may require continued medical attention (daily drops). Any interested adopters should be experienced dog owners and consider a foster to adopt arrangement. Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

My name is Boo. I am about 5 yrs old. I somehow found myself at the shelter earlier this year. I was scared and shut down. You see, I can not see. I am totally blind. I need a home that is low key. I do not do well with strangers, or cats. I will need time and a patient person and maybe a dog or two, to help me acclimate to a new environment. But once I do, I will be the first one to greet you at the door in the evenings or after your trip to the store! I actually seem to enjoy car rides, though I do not walk on a leash well at all. Once I am comfortable in my environment, I am very food motivated. I must be kept on heartworm prevention for the rest of my life as I have already undergone heartworm treatment. Boo needs someone with a secure fence. One that is chain link or wooden. He can escape an aluminum bar fence. Boo will require some work, a bit of time, and most of all patience but in the end, he is very much worth it! Are you interested in adopting this dog or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Ellie is approximately 7 years old. It looks like she's been in and out of shelters/fosters most of her life. She's ball/fetch obsessive and we were asked to do mind stimulating activities, commands and agility training with her. She walks well on a leash, she's crate trained, she's potty trained and knows simple commands. We were told there's been a bite history when she is over excited about a toy and not good with small children but we have not placed her in those situations. Our pet sitter has 2 high school aged children and she's been fine with them. She'll be at PetSmart Saturday and you can see more of her personality!
