Jersey

How has this girl been in rescue for a year already? Don’t let her graying muzzle fool you. Jersey is sassy but still full of spunky energy and LOTS of love to give!. Jersey is approximately six and a half years old and found her way to us via a local shelter. Jersey is currently in a foster home with a two other Danes but her play time with them is supervised. Jersey is not a fan of hyperactive or in your face dogs. She would do best in a home with other laid back dogs or those well past the puppy stage. Ideally, she would love to have the attention all to herself. She has attended several adoption events with her foster mom and has done very well out in public. She has never hurt another dog or been aggressive- she just doesn’t seem to know how to play appropriately with others. She is a bit of a diva and likes to be in charge! Jersey has not been around cats but does seem to have somewhat of a prey drive so a home without cats is probably best. Jersey LOVES to eat. She came in pretty underweight but it took no time for her to start feeling better. This girl will still lick her bowl clean every time. She has never met a treat that she didn’t like! Jersey loves to be around her people and loves to snuggle but will retreat to her bed when its time. She is kennel trained and house trained. She rides well in the car and loads up without assistance. Jersey would do best in a home with a fenced in yard for her daily zoomies. However she walks well on leash and with the right family and a plan for exercise she would probably be just fine. She has no recall so leash walks would be required in lieu of a fenced in yard. Jersey loves to lay out in the sun and keep a watchful eye on the yard. She is quick to alert when there is “stranger danger” such as a possum or other wildlife around. LOL Jersey is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. She was heartworm positive when she came into rescue but has received treatment and is free of those nasty freeloaders. She is currently fostered in the Pensacola FL area. Out of respect for our foster family's time and privacy, we do NOT arrange meet and greets without an approved application on file. Jersey's adoption fee is $350. If you're interested in adopting Jersey please go to www.nwflgdr.com/adopt to read over our adoption coverage areas and requirements before applying. PLEASE NOTE: NWFLGDR does not transport. NWFLGDR requires all approved adopters to travel to the foster home to meet and pick up the dog in person. Should the adoption not work out, it is the responsibility of the adopter to travel to bring the dog back to his/her foster parent
