Jasmine

Sweet baby Jasmine was brought into a crowded public pound in Louisiana with untreated skin issues. Due to her skin being in such rough shape, the shelter not having a vet on staff, and the fact that people aren't looking to adopt pups missing most of their hair, Jasmine was in danger of being put to sleep. A local rescue group swooped in and pulled her, and Jasmine has been healing and thriving in foster care ever since! <br/><br/>As of mid-November, Jasmine is around 40lbs and 8 months old. We think she is mostly done growing as she has stayed short and long in her 4+ months in foster care. We think she is some sort of low rider mix, like a Dachshund or Basset Hound mixed with a Labrador? Her hair loss was due to demodex (a non-contagious skin condition) which she has been treated for. Jasmine is almost fully healed with a beautiful, healthy new coat of hair! Her vet expects no lingering effects from her having demodex and she should look like a completely normal puppy soon! <br/><br/>Jasmine's foster mom says, "One word to sum up Jasmine is SWEET! She loves toys - especially the kind that crinkle. She is doing very well with learning to potty outside. She sleeps through the whole night in her crate without a peep. She likes to sleep cuddled up with a stuffie (just check out her photo album). She likes to grab the leash in her mouth and lead the way on walks - she wants to walk you instead of you walking her. She has a tendency to jump up on you - we are working on that. She is an “observer” - if a neighbor walks out while we are outside, she just stops what she is doing and watches them - she also watches the TV and her reflection in the oven door. She gets the zoomies, but overall, she is pretty calm for a puppy her age. She loves spending time outside exploring. She is very quiet - she will whine to go outside to potty, but she rarely barks." Jasmine is good with other dogs, but is a little too interested in cats on her walks, so likely needs a cat free home. <br/><br/>Jasmine's photo album with lots of photos and videos of her healing journey: https://photos.app.goo.gl/4MdxyKgswpGLNh437<br/><br/>Jasmine has had a full set of puppy vaccines, is 4DX negative for heartworm and tick-borne diseases, and is current on heartworm/flea/tick prevention and deworming. She was spayed and microchipped in mid-September is ready to travel to her forever home. Don't miss out on this special pup who is as beautiful on the outside as she is on the inside. <br/><br/>Jasmine is currently in foster care in North Louisiana, but we welcome out of state adoptions. We have an amazing transport that delivers all along the East Coast... PA, NJ, CT, NY, VT. <br/><br/>PAWS of NE LA was formed back in 2003 and we have been sending our special Southern dogs to wonderful homes up North since 2010.
