Jesse Catahoula Leopard Dog Mix Bellingham, WA

Meet Jesse, an active, intelligent, and affectionate dog who is looking for her forever home! She is a beautiful mix of Catahoula Leopard Dog and has stunning markings that make her stand out from the crowd. Jesse is a bit of an anxious gal who needs a bit of extra TLC and patience to help her feel comfortable and secure. She was surrendered to the shelter by her previous owner due to becoming overwhelmed and stressed with the arrival of a new baby. Jesse would thrive in a stable and calm environment where she can relax and feel at ease. Therefore, Jesse would do best with experienced adopters who understand how to manage a dog's anxiety and provide plenty of mental stimulation to keep her happy.
Despite her anxious nature, Jesse is a very active and playful dog who loves to run, jump, and play fetch. She has lots of energy to burn and would benefit from a family who enjoys spending time outdoors and taking long walks or runs. Jesse is also an intelligent dog who loves to learn. She would thrive in a home where she can participate in games and training exercises to keep her mind active and engaged. Jesse is a loving and loyal companion who is looking for a family that will provide her with the love and attention she deserves. If that sounds like it could be you, submit an application to see if it's a match!


Additional Information:

-Can Live with Kids: Jesse could potentially live with older, dog-savvy kids/teenagers who can read/respect her body language, but she does not want to share her home with young kiddos/babies. We're recommending no kids under 14 years at this time.

-Can Live with Cats: Yes, Jesse did well with the cat in her previous home. Intros to any new cats should be slow and supervised!

-Can Live with Dogs: *UPDATE AFTER DOG/DOG* - - - Jesse "tolerated" the dog in her previous home, and according to her former owner, gets defensive/alert in the presence of unknown dogs. She would likely do best as the only pup in the home.

-Can do Apartment Living: Could be doable with PLENTY of exercise and mental stimulation, but a home with a yard is preferred!

-Potty Trained: Yes

-Bite History: No

-Positive Reward Based Obedience Classes Required: No
