Jake's Story

Name: Jake <br/><br/>Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix<br/><br/>Sex/Age/Weight: Male/ estimated DOB 07/2020 /85lbs <br/><br/>Vetting: Jake is fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped. <br/><br/>House trained/Crate Trained: Jake is currently living outside in a kennel due to not getting a long with others (see below). He is very quiet.<br/><br/>Dogs: Jake is very particular when it comes to other dogs. He has lived with them in the past, but he wasn't always nice. Since being rescued, Jake has spent time with a few dogs here and there, but it was totally on his terms. He played a little, but then he was done. For this reason, we believe Jake would do best with only one other dog (with slow introductions to ensure compatibility) or be "the one and only" in his new home.<br/><br/>Children: Jake tends to be very skittish around them because he is not sure what they will do. He would do best with older children who can understand how to treat animals with respect.<br/><br/>Cats: Jake has not been seen around cats, however he can be cat tested upon request. <br/><br/>Energy Level: Jake is very laid back. Jake loves taking walks and will follow you around.<br/><br/>Before FAR/My History: My previous owner got very sick and passed away. There were 6 of us. I was the last one that he rescued as a stray. I didn't know my dad very well, he got sick soon after he rescued me. I don't remember my previous life but I was a stray when my dad found me. I got along with my dog siblings but I was never quite comfortable around them. I do like other dogs but I need very slow introductions. I've never been around cats. <br/><br/>Training Status/Commands I know: I know my name and respond and come when called. I walk very well on a leash.<br/><br/>Working on: Getting Jake comfortable with new people and new situations due to an unfortunate past. But he is a big love when you get to know him.<br/><br/>Things I like: Jake loves chewing on marrow bones. He's also VERY food motivated and loves treats. <br/><br/>Things I don't like: I am very sensitive and I really like to see where your hands are when you approach me. I really appreciate a pet on my head first. <br/><br/>Things that make my humans happy: When I sit next to them and let them pet and talk to me. He seems to just love and want to be around people all the time!<br/><br/>Ideal Family/Home: Jake would love a home where it is quiet, no younger children around and probably would like to be the only dog. He would be great as a companion to someone who is lonely.<br/><br/>If you are interested in giving Jake a forever home, please visit the link below to fill out an application! http://fureverafterrescue.org/adoption-application.html It is best to submit an application through a computer.
