Jazzy's Story
Name: Jazzy<br/>Age: 7 years <br/>Sex: Female<br/>Weight: 95lbs<br/>Spayed/Neutered: Yes<br/>Breed (best guess): German Shepherd/Collie Mix<br/>Location: Living in foster care - Meet & greets can be arranged with potential adopters<br/><br/>Jazzy is a loving, playful, and intelligent girl currently enjoying her time in foster. She loves people and once she feels comfortable, she will come looking for affection, belly rubs, and her favourite thing of all... Lots of butt scratches! After a few weeks of getting settled in the new environment, her foster says she loves nothing more than being close to her person, and she has gotten a hang of the routine of the home.<br/><br/>Her playful side shines when she's romping around with her foster's dog, Smokey. The two of them happily wrestle and play together throughout the day, but Jazzy is just as content to soak up love as the only dog. She is a wonderful balance of fun and cuddly, with an easygoing nature once she has had her exercise.<br/><br/>Jazzy is very smart and eager to please. She already knows her basic commands like sit, down, paw, roll over, and come. She responds best to positive reinforcement and praise and relies on gentle guidance rather than a firm or harsh tone. Around the house she has great manners, no counter surfing, no begging at mealtimes, and fully house-trained!<br/><br/>Jazzy is currently overweight and is losing weight slowly but surely in her foster home! She loves her daily walks and has been building up her stamina with her foster, happily going longer distances each day. <br/><br/>Like many dogs, Jazzy has a few challenges. She can display reactive behaviours toward other dogs, especially when on leash or in the car, where she may get vocal or worked up. With consistent redirection and praise her foster has already seen improvements, and she responds well when given a clear cue. She can be protective of her home and may bark to alert, but she settles once reassured. Out on walks she sometimes tries to scavenge, but a "leave it" command usually does the trick.<br/><br/>Despite these challenges, her foster had said she hasn't displayed polite manners with food with both her and Smokey (the foster's dog) and she is affectionate, funny, and full of personality. She would thrive in an active home where she can enjoy daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love. She could be a great match for a home with another well matched dog, or just as happy being the center of attention.<br/><br/>Her foster describes her as "an all-round gem" and says Jazzy has truly blossomed into a wonderful, loving companion. With her mix of playfulness, affection, and loyalty, Jazzy will make the perfect dog for the right person or family.
