Jake (Neutered)

Jake is a sweet one-year old male (possible) Hound/Blue Heeler mix who was brought to the HSOV on October 14, 2024 by a Washington County Ohio Deputy Sheriff. Jake was found near the Dollar General Store in Belpre Ohio earlier that day and was taken into custody by the Belpre City Police in hopes that his owner could be located. Unfortunately Jake's family/owner was not found, This handsome boy was not wearing a collar, and he was not microchipped.<br/><br/>Jake has a shiny black-and-tan coat with a beautiful patch of blue ticking on his chest, a long tail, and a cute face with dark brown eyes, a dusting of blue/white on his muzzle and a thin stripe on his forehead, and large floppy ears which frame his face.<br/><br/>These photos were taken shortly after Jake made his debut at HSOV late in the afternoon on October 14th. Jake spent a little time relaxing in the lobby with HSOV Manager Tracy Lynn and soaked up some loving attention while he waited patiently for several 'wild and crazy' kittens to finish their photo sessions.<br/><br/>Jake weighs 42 lbs and has a super sweet personality. He loved his people friends that he met but did NOT include cats in his circle of friends.<br/><br/>In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Jake will be held for three days so that his family will have an opportunity to reclaim him with proof of ownership.<br/><br/>Since he was not reclaimed, Jake was neutered on January 13, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine.<br/><br/>Update: Jake (and HSOV Finley Marie) are currently at Boxers Bed & Biscuits in Belpre Ohio where they are enjoying an out-of-shelter 'vacation' thanks to the generosity of a group of dedicated HSOV volunteers/supporters. They are both available for adoption through HSOV.<br/><br/>Jake returned to HSOV on June 20, 2025 and would love to find a loving home with someone special instead of being in shelter kennel after enjoying the freedom of being at Boxers Bed & Biscuits for several months.
