Jake
While away on vacation, one of our volunteers in the south received a distraught message from her friend in rural Mississippi. It seems someone dumped a few dogs on her property and heard the neighbor shooting at them while they were wandering. One of the dogs never returned so we can only imagine what happened. He friend was frantic about saving this boy's life so our volunteer, Heather, put her vacation aside to make sure our rescue could save Jake!
Heather shares, "He’s beautiful and super friendly. Jake puts his paw up gently when he’d like attention or another treat. It makes me want to swoon! Jake’s good in the car and seems great with other dogs but has no history with cats. Jake loves the water -he just sits in a pond and doesn’t swim so much - just wants to cool off. He’s semi interested in toys but didn’t retrieve them when I tossed them. He's playful and wants to please people. Oh and he loves rawhide chewies."
Jake is estimated to be about 4 years old and weighs 101 lbs. He is up to date on his vaccinations, neutered, is heartworm negative, and has no known health issues. He received a Proheart 6 injection so he will not need any additional heartworm preventative for 6 months. If you are ready for lots of love and devotion, this Chocolate Lab is your boy!
If you are approved to adopt through SGRR, are home most of the day, have an active life-style, and a sense of humor, please contact Cheryl to be considered to adopt this wonderful boy. He will be headed north in mid July to be adopted. If you are not yet approved, visit our website to fill out an application! Jake is smart and eager to please and will quickly learn house rules with a little consistent training and guidance. He is not to be missed!!
Rescued dogs come with a range of needs - from behavioral to emotional to medical. When approved applicants adopt such dogs, they agree to take on whatever comes with the dog. It is up to YOU to continue the rehabilitation we have begun. This is what it means to rescue.
