Jojo's Story

Jojo is a three year old female who is ready for a soft place to land.<br/><br/>She came to us as an owner surrender. Her family hit a hard stretch and made the call to find her a better situation, and they were honest with us about her on the way out, which is exactly what helps a dog get placed well.<br/><br/>Here is what we know for certain about Jojo. She loves other dogs. She has lived with children. She has lived with cats. Those are three of the hardest questions an adopter asks, and Jojo has already answered all three from real life.<br/><br/>She is a submissive, gentle girl. She is not pushy and she does not demand anything from you. Everyone who spends time with her comes back saying the same thing, which is that she is just sweet.<br/><br/>Jojo is brindle and white with a wide white blaze running up between her eyes and a freckled pink nose.<br/><br/>We want to be honest with you about one thing. Jojo has been living outside and she came in with flea dermatitis. Her skin is under treatment and it is improving. She will go home needing a few more weeks of care, and after that she will be comfortable in her own coat, likely for the first time in a long while.<br/><br/>We prefer to schedule appointments for meet and greets to make sure someone is available to spend time with you. The shelter is open Monday through Friday, 12pm to 4pm, and appointments outside of those hours may be available based on volunteer availability. Email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com to set up a visit or learn more today.

Petersburg Animal Care & Control's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting from Petersburg Animal Care & Control! We’re so glad you’re considering giving a shelter pet a loving home. We do not charge an adoption fee; however, all animals must be spayed or neutered prior to adoption, and the cost of the procedure is covered by the adopter. We’re happy to support adopters by coordinating appointments with our low-cost veterinary partners for spay/neuter services and other basic care needs. Adoption Process • We prefer to schedule appointments for meet-and-greets to ensure that staff or volunteers are available to spend adequate time helping you get to know the animal. • When you arrive, please sign in and wait to be escorted by a staff member or volunteer before entering the kennel areas. • For safety reasons, please do not reach into kennels or attempt to touch animals through barriers. If you’re interested in a particular pet, our team will bring them to a meet-and-greet area for proper introductions. • After your visit, you’re welcome to submit an adoption application. Applications must be approved before we can schedule a meet-and-greet with your family pets. • Meet-and-greets with personal pets are by appointment only, and for safety, two staff members must be present to handle all animals involved. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make each match the best fit possible — both for our animals and their future families.
