Jake's Story

Meet Jake! Affectionately known as “Jake from State Farm,” this 14-year-old Silky Terrier still has plenty of personality, pep, and love to give. Don’t let his age fool you—Jake enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, and being right in the middle of whatever his people are doing.<br/><br/>​<br/><br/>Jake is a social little guy who thrives on companionship and would love a home where someone is around often. He has a bit of FOMO and simply wants to be included in daily life. Once he feels comfortable, his playful and affectionate side shines through, and he quickly settles into being a loyal little shadow.<br/><br/>​<br/><br/>He would do best with patient, dog-savvy adopters who understand that while Jake is sweet, he can also be sensitive when feeling stressed or restrained. He may react when picked up unexpectedly or during grooming and vet handling, so respecting his boundaries and helping him feel secure is important.<br/><br/>​<br/><br/>Jake has lived successfully with a cat and is a bonded pair with Luna Bee. His interactions with dogs are still being evaluated, though he can be reactive around them. A calm home with respectful older children could be a good fit for him.<br/><br/>​<br/><br/>Like many senior dogs, Jake does have some ongoing medical needs, including a prescription urinary diet, regular grooming, dental care, and monitoring for mild heart disease and previous urinary issues. Despite this, he remains happy, engaged, and full of life.<br/><br/>​<br/><br/>Jake is looking for someone who will embrace both his quirks and his charm—a patient, loving home where he can spend his golden years feeling safe, included, and adored. <br/><br/>​<br/><br/>Jake is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.

Emerald City Pet Rescue's Adoption Policy
Because our animals are kept in a playroom setting, Emerald City Pet Rescue is an appointment based rescue. Call 206-557-4661 to get started on the adoption process and find your new FUREVER FRIEND today! Our screening process starts with a survey that is completed over the phone, and then moves on to an in-person meet and greet if it seems like a good fit for both the adopter and the pet. If the meet and greet goes well, you have the option to fill out a contract. We then complete reference checks and schedule a visit to your home to ensure that everything is compatible with the pet's needs and our requirements.
