Hi, I'm
Justine
Shepherd (Unknown Type)
My story
**This dog is being fostered on Vancouver island but can be transported to the mainland. Apply to adopt here: lastminutedogrescue.comUntil she came into rescue during the big freeze of Feb 2020, Justine lived on the periphery of human society and survived by avoiding being caught. Her fear of people runs deep, and its been very exciting and satisfying to see her slowly opening up to the good life of a beloved pet. You can tell she was never abused but was simply feral, and had no experience with people at all. Her whole body trembled non-stop at the end of a leash....but now, she's the most affectionate cuddlebug you could dream up, ALWAYS happy to be pulled into your arms for a hug and snuggles. She can't get enough affection, from both humans and dogs. Her tail wags constantly. Justy is delighted by her life of safety, comfort, play and adventure with her foster dog pack. This is simply the happiest, most grateful rescue dog you've ever seen, waking up in the morning with a huge smile of love on her face. You can see the joy in her as she bounds across the yard looking for mice. In spite of still having a bit of wildness to her, she's housebroken, crate-trained, not bad on a leash and all-around adorable sweetie. She loves going in the car and is crazy about going on off-leash forest adventures, where she comes when she's called almost all the time! Justy's never found a body of water she hasn't wanted to jump into, even if it was just mud. She even loves rolling in snow. Having been feral her whole life, Justine is most comfortable in the company of other dogs. She's deeply attached to her foster siblings, especially Corbin, so if they aren't adopted together, she will need a new pack that will welcome her loving, affectionate and playful ways.
