Skunk's Story
"Meet Skunk! This 3–5 year old Jack Russell Terrier mix is a quirky, loyal little guy who really shines once he’s comfortable in his environment. In a calm, familiar home, Skunk is incredibly easy to have around—he settles in nicely and is just a great companion to coexist with.<br/><br/>Skunk thrives with other dogs and will definitely need a canine buddy in his forever home. He’s done well with dogs of all sizes and especially enjoys having a friend to hang out with when his people are away. He’s currently left loose in a separate room with a dog companion and does great with that setup. Crates aren’t his thing (they cause him significant stress), but with a little management he does just fine.<br/><br/>He’s affectionate and enjoys attention from his people, but he’s not overly needy or demanding. Skunk forms strong bonds and is especially fond of his trusted humans.<br/><br/>Skunk’s biggest challenge is meeting new people. He can be a bit growly at first, and it takes him about an hour to settle in and feel safe. Because of this, he’ll do best in a home without young children and with adopters who understand that he just needs a little time and patience when it comes to new introductions.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion and have a resident dog to show him the ropes, Skunk could be a really special addition to your home."<br/><br/>Skunk is being fostered in Aurora, Colorado.<br/><br/>*We require all adopters to come to Colorado to adopt. *We do not transport dogs.*<br/><br/>You can view this wonderful dog at https://www.milehighcanine.org/post/dogs/skunk/. <br/><br/>You can apply for our wonderful dogs at https://www.milehighcanine.org/adopt/adoption-application/.
