Fern's Story

Fern is a 3-year-old, 40-pound Boxer mix with a heart as soft as her stunning brindle coat. She is truly the ultimate snuggle buddy, happiest when she is curled up on the couch or bed with you. Fern has mastered the art of being a lady: she knows how to sit, is housebroken, walks beautifully on a leash, knows how to sit quietly for her food, and is crate-trained. She is also an eager co-pilot for car rides! <br/><br/>After a recent return to the shelter, Fern is looking for her final, forever home. While she is currently sharing her foster home with three female dogs, Fern can be picky about her canine friends and has a bit too much enthusiasm for cats. To set her up for success, we are looking for a home where Fern can be the only fur-child. She is, however, incredibly gentle with small children, babies and seniors! <br/><br/>Fern is a sweet, affectionate girl who enjoys the simple pleasures in life—regular walks, lots of love, and a warm, safe home. Sometimes she plays a little too hard with pillows (oops!), so she should be crated when left alone. If you're looking for a loyal, charming companion, Fern is ready for you!<br/><br/>If interested in meeting Fern, please submit an application here: https://fjcasp.wufoo.com/forms/adoption-application

Friends of Jackson County Animal Shelter Pets's Adoption Policy
At FJCASP, we dedicate a great deal of love, time, and resources to caring for our animals, and our top priority is to see them go to permanent, loving homes with people who have the knowledge and means to provide proper care. Adoption Fee: $80–$150 Vet References Required We require that all potential adopters provide veterinary references. This allows us to confirm that any current or past pets have been kept up to date on vaccinations, preventatives, and are spayed/neutered. Most veterinary offices are familiar with this request. Our goal is to ensure that our animals are placed in homes where they will remain safe, healthy, and properly cared for. Long-Term Commitment Adopting a pet is a serious, long-term commitment. We want all potential adopters to understand their responsibilities and be prepared to care for an animal for its lifetime. Home Requirements To provide a safe environment, we require that adopters provide: - Proper shelter for the animal - Understanding of how to introduce a new pet to children and existing animals -Commitment to keeping the animal as an indoor pet Adoption Approval All adoptions must be finalized and approved by the FJCASP Board. This ensures oversight by experienced individuals who can confirm that all parties understand their responsibilities and that the animal’s welfare is prioritized. Adopter Responsibilities It is part of our adoption agreement that all medical treatments, veterinary costs, preventatives, food, and shelter are the sole responsibility of the adopter. Our goal is to place each animal in a loving, safe, and permanent home, and these guidelines help us ensure that every adoption is successful for both the pet and the adopter.
