Myspace For Girls Only - MyGirlySpace.comHi! My name is Jake. I’m a 1.5-year-old neutered male lab mix. I was rescued off of the streets of Plano,Texas by my foster mommy, Carissa (1st on my friends list, in case you need to contact her). She took me in, gave me shots, and got me neutered. I am also heartworm negative (and on preventative), and in great overall health!
I was in my foster home for over a month with 4 adult dogs and a 2-year-old baby and did really well with them. It would be best if I was either the only dog in my new household or if there was only one other dog about my size, as I love to play and need lots and lots of
love and attention. I’ve never been around cats, so I’m not sure if I like them or not. I’m not a big fan of riding in the car, but I love to go for walks and run around in a nice, spacious backyard. I get really scared whenever placed in a kennel, but am perfectly happy in a dog run. I attach quickly and love to snuggle up next to my people on a couch or chair.
Unfortunately, my foster mom is unable to keep me at her home any longer, as I put her one over the city limit, so she is currently paying to board me at Toothacres Pet Care Center. Boarding is not cheap, and she is not sure how long I will be able to stay there. Besides, even though the people at Toothacres take really good care of me, I’m very lonely out here and would do anything to find a family to go home with.
I am a VERY sweet boy and just need a good, loving home, where I can get lots of love and attention. I'm still quite puppyish, so my foster mom was also working on my manners (basic commands - sit, stay, down, etc., and chewing things, as all young dogs do). I will need someone who is willing to either continue working with me or take me to obedience classes. I'm making great progress, though! I answer to my name, am housetrained, and use a doggie door with confidence!
I am about 50 pounds and full grown, and my estimated date of birth is January 2006. I'm blondish in color with black and white markings. I even have a cute black heart on my chin!
Can’t adopt right now? You can still help! Any monetary donations can be sent directly to Toothacres, to help offset the cost of my daily boarding fees! Every dollar helps!
