JACK's Story

Meet Jack! <br/><br/>Look at those glorious, radar-dish ears! Jack is a handsome, curious, and remarkably sharp Red Heeler puppy who is ready for his next big adventure.<br/><br/>Smart, Playful, and Eager to Learn Jack is the total package of brains and affection. Hes super friendly, loves giving sweet puppy kisses, and is already showing off his high intelligence. Case in point: he picked up the game of fetch in under two minutes! Hes constantly exploring his surroundings and looking for new ways to engage his sharp mind.<br/><br/>High Energy & Activity Needs Jack is a true working breed at heart and needs a lifestyle that matches his drive:<br/><br/>Active Homes Only: Jack requires lots of daily exercise and must be with an active person or family who is willing and able to help him burn off his desire to stay busy at all times.<br/><br/>Yard Preferred: Apartment life will not suit Jack. He needs ample space and time to run, play, and burn off that signature Heeler energy.<br/><br/>Training & Growth Like many young pups, Jack is working on his mouth manners. He naturally wants to put his mouth around your hands, but hes very gentle about it when corrected. He is an amazingly quick learner—after just one night of gentle guidance, he drastically reduced this habit! With consistent, positive reinforcement, hell master his manners in no time.<br/><br/>Breed Considerations: The Herding Instinct As a Red Heeler, Jack comes hardwired with natural herding instincts. It is in his DNA to want to "herd" moving creatures in the direction he wants them to go—and that includes little kids!<br/><br/>Families with young children must be prepared for natural "herd nipping" behaviors and willing to actively train through them.<br/><br/>If you are not equipped to manage and train a working breed around young kids, we kindly ask that you consider another breed.<br/><br/>If youre an active dog lover looking for a loyal, wicked-smart, and fun-loving partner with the absolute best ears in town, Jack is ready to play ball!<br/><br/>Jack is a growing male Red Heeler who was was born approximately 4-16-26. He is neutered, given age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, dewormed, and started on preventative. Adoption fee is $450 to help offset the many expenses we have for vetting costs. We rely strictly on adoption fees and donations to continue to save the lives of orphaned & abandoned pets; 100% goes towards their care. <br/>***If you are serious about adopting, you must first complete and submit an application on our website. Our Adoption Team will respond via email from DollysLegacyAdoptions@gmail.com once you have completed an application. If a pet is still listed, it is not yet adopted as we update daily.

Dolly's Legacy Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your viewing our Petfinder page for Dolly's Legacy Animal Rescue with your interest in adopting one of our beautiful orphaned pets. We are a foster-home based rescue group and do not have a facility. All of our adoptable pets with their photos, descriptions, adoption fees & most information requested about them can be seen on our website which is updated daily at this link: http://dollyslegacyanimalrescue.org/ If they are still listed on our website, they have not yet been adopted. Since most of the pets we rescue have been orphaned or abandoned, we are not certain of their breed/mix and are not able to pinpoint how big they will be full-grown if they are still young. We do our best to determine the breed(s) they most closely resemble. The first step is to have you complete our online adoption application. Please visit our website at this link to see our adoption guidelines, on this page you will also find the link to complete & submit an adoption application: http://dollyslegacyanimalrescue.org/adopt/guidelines-application.html All adoption appointments are scheduled after your application has been approved. Preference is given to those with a verifiable veterinary reference, home ownership & fenced yard, although not required. Home ownership is verified through court records. If you are a renter, you must provide landlord contact information. We need all family members or those living within your home, including pets (dogs not cats), to be present for an appointment. We do not "hold" pets for a specific date. If you are going on vacation, or cannot take when the pet is available, please wait to apply until you are ready to adopt. We do out of state/area adoptions, but approved adopters are required to come to an adoption appointment, we do not ship pets. The final approval to adopt is after we have met applicants and feel they are the right match for that particular pet. Be sure to "like" our page on Facebook where you will find more photos and to learn more about our rescue.https://www.facebook.com/DollysLegacyAnimalRescue?ref=hl
