Jackson5's Story

Jackson Bio<br/>Please ensure you understand and can meet the needs of this dog before applying.<br/>● Energy level: medium<br/>● Potty training: pee pads (does not go outside)<br/>● Fenced yard: not needed<br/>● Shared walls: Barks when foster leaves for about 30 minutes; would do best with someone home more often than not<br/>● People: good with older children, shy at first with adults; protective of his foster mom<br/>● Dogs: NEEDS COMPANION DOG<br/>● Other: currently requires GI diet, will need weight loss diet soon, good in car when in seatbelt<br/><br/>Overview<br/>Looking for a snuggly companion who will steal your heart? Jackson the dachshund<br/>might be your perfect match.<br/>Jackson is a 5-year-old piebald brown and white dachshund who weighs 19 lbs. He was<br/>surrendered by his previous family who had a baby on the way and felt they<br/>could not give him the attention he craves. And Jackson does love attention—he's the<br/>kind of pup who gets incredibly attached to his person and thrives on being close to you.<br/>He's also absolutely adorable when he gets excited about his leash, grabbing it in his<br/>mouth as if he is ready to walk himself (even though he's not much of a walker once<br/>you're actually outside).<br/><br/>Environment<br/>Jackson is an indoor guy through and through. He is currently using pee pads and<br/>doesn't do his business outside, so he will need a family committed to continuing indoor<br/>potty solutions. The good news is he does not need a backyard and is quiet enough to be<br/>ok in a pet friendly home. He currently barks for a little bit when first left alone, but he’s<br/>settling in so we’re keeping an eye on the situation. Currently, we believe he would do best with someone that works from home. Jackson is very content and happy to lounge around the house and entertain himself. He loves using doggie stairs and would happily spend all day on the couch if you let him. He's a bit of a digger and can be quite curious, getting into things within reach, so keeping an eye on him is important. He is not a fan of being crated and will escape an X pen. Jackson doesn't need or want a crate for hanging out at home, and he enjoys short walks or playtime to keep him active without overdoing it. He is learning to love toys too!<br/><br/>Pets & People<br/>Jackson can be a bit shy when he first meets people, but once he warms up, he's a<br/>sweetheart. He does well with older children and will bond deeply with his family. With<br/>strangers, he takes his time to feel comfortable but isn't aggressive—just a little<br/>reserved and can be a bit protective at first. Jackson is wonderful with other dogs! He is curious about dogs he meets on walks and has spent time with another dog in his foster home, getting along beautifully and even following them around. He enjoys the company of canine friends<br/>and would do well in a home with or without another dog.<br/><br/>Health & Special Needs<br/>Jackson is currently on a GI diet to keep his tummy happy and will be transitioning to a<br/>weight loss diet in about a month. He was used to eating human food in his previous<br/>home and is still adjusting to dog food—wet food works better for him than dry, and he's<br/>not quite eating full meals yet. But when it comes to treats? He jumps up and down with<br/>pure excitement! Jackson tends to whine and scratch when crated during car rides and does better when in a dog seatbelt.<br/>Location<br/>Jackson is available for adoption from Miami, FL. Please email<br/>juliejohnson@littlepawsdr.org with any questions or complete an adoption application at<br/>the button above. The adoption fee for Jackson is $375.00.
