Ideal Home / Adopter Jersey is still learning to be a dog. She would love to have another dog that would help her out. She is very sweet, but timid. She is still afraid of the leash, she is working on it, but would need a house with a fenced in yard. She is very curious about cats, loves to smell them, but does not chase them. She takes time to warm up to people, but she does not jump on them.

Likes She loves chicken, following around the other dog(s) in the house, sticking her face in the snow and running around in the snow. She also loves shoes.....

Dislikes the CRATE! She eventually calms down, but does better being confined to a room (without shoes, unless you are okay with losing those shoes). She is still learning leash skills and building confidence, and takes about a day to warm up in new situations.

Jersey is a sweet sweet dog. She takes about a day to warm up and then when she does she steals your heart. Jersey will be your best friend. She is still learning to trust, but once she does she just wants to be near you and her doggie friends. She is learning to play fetch and chase the other dogs. She loves the snow, but loves to crash on the couch just as much. She really wants to make her people happy.

All fees include spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations, worming, flea and heartworm current. All dogs over 6 months of age have been tested and are heartworm negative.
