My story

Jolene is a super friendly girl. She is a mixed breed (?) at 2 years and 6 months. She is a perfect size weighing 46 pounds (All the better to hug). She has a short black and white coat and such a friendly face to match her personality. Her family surrendered her because they were moving and could not take her with them. She has proven to be super friendly with dogs and kids. It is unknown if she has met a cat. Jolene does have a funny quirk: She loves rocks! Yes rocks! She has a rock baby. She will pick up a special rock, carry it around, set it down and then curl up with it.She is working on her crate and leash training but has successfully completed her house training. Daily walks will be a good opportunity to check out her leash skills as well as socialization skills. It will be a new world to her with all the new sights, smells, sounds, and people along her walk. It is important to remember that although Jolene is housetrained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. She will also appreciate free time in the back yard. Keeping her mind active with activities that provide physical and mental stimulation will prevent boredom. Jolene will want to be with a family that will give lots of affection and attention to her. Interested?* When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.The adoption fee for Jolene is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us.If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.August 14, 2025, 6:49 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Jolene, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
