Jack's Story

Jack is super sweet approx 24lb 10yo neutered male schnauzer mix. He was found as a stray so not much history is known about him. He's done very well - out of the scary FL kill shelter and in the foster home of a very experienced loving foster mom. Unfortunately, due to personal health concerns, Jack is now being fostered by another equally very experienced foster in Goose Creek SC. But is was a last minute, emergency placement - and this SC foster has a very full house right now -lots of other dogs. <br/><br/>Jack is fully vetted, all shots & preventative, in good health, housebroken and leash-crate- trained. He does need drops for 'dry eye' in both eyes but otherwise has no special needs or diet.<br/><br/>Handling Jack is our main concern. He is not allowing being picked up at this time. And is very resistant to bei g physically handled ny a vet or groomer, at this time. He was prescribed tranquilizers by a vet that would help keep him calm -- and hopefully will make visits to a groomer, vet & home eye-care needed, allowable.<br/><br/>His current foster is very fond of Jack & he has shown improvement while in her care with handling.<br/><br/>So we really need a very understanding adopter - who may consider taking Jack into their home & allowing him at least 6 months to gain his trust & cooperation.<br/><br/>He's super social with same-size friendly dogs and was particularly friendly and protective of a sweet little female terrier who he became especially fond of.<br/><br/>We'd love to talk to you about Jack and hope you will consider adopting Jack and giving him a loving Furever home ASAP!<br/><br/>Please contact Joyce - GFstrays for more info and video of Jack. <br/><br/>We can arrange a video-chat with Jack's foster and arrange transport for the right person. We will adopt out-of-state to a good adopt home setting

His current foster is very fond of Jack & he has shown improvement while in her care with handling.

So we really need a very understanding adopter - who may consider taking Jack into their home & allowing him at least 6 months to gain his trust & cooperation.

He's super social with same-size friendly dogs and was particularly friendly and protective of a sweet little
