Jupiter Cattle Dog Mix Marietta, OH

Jupiter is a cute 2-year old female Australian Cattle Dog/Red Heeler mix who was brought to the HSOV on December 16, 2023 by a Good Samaritan who found her on Everson Road in the Belpre Ohio area. Jupiter was wearing a bright orange collar but there was neither an id tag nor a dog license tag on her collar ... And she was not microchipped.

This little sweetheart has a white short smooth coat which is sprinkled with red ticking, a long tail, and an adorable face with red ticking/freckles, a liver-colored nose, and semi-erect ears. Jupiter's left eye is blue while her right eye is brown, which gives her such an endearing appearance.

Jupiter has a friendly, rather demure, personality, and she is understandably a bit frightened being in an unfamiliar place with new people that she doesn't yet realize are her new best friends.

HSOV Kennel Tech Makayla Renae Hannah spent time with Jupiter in the shelter lobby for preliminary photos on December 19th since the outside temperatures were in the freezing range late that afternoon .. Jupiter was in love with Makayla and thoroughly attention (and 'good girl' treats) .. but she was puzzled by the paparazzi/photograph experience and couldn't figure out 'what the heck' that was all about.

Jupiter weighs 44 lbs. She doesn't appear to have the luxury of learning to walk on a leash, but she is a smart little cookie who will quickly master that new skill.

These photos of Jupiter admittedly not the most flattering of this cute girl, but we wanted to share them in hopes that her family is searching for her. We will take outdoor 'glamour shots' at the first opportunity if she is not reclaimed.

In compliance with the Ohio Revised Code, Jupiter will be held for three days so that her family will have an opportunity to reclaim her with proof of ownership.
