About **JESSIE - Bio Below

Please visit our main website https://almosthomenm.org/ We also offer boarding and have a Facebook page with photos and stories. Be aware birthdays and breeds listed are our best guesses based on looks - we seldom know this information unless they come in with registration papers. Approximate DOB 11/15/2023 Approximate Adult Size - Small - 13 lbs during spay History- We saw a post on FB from another rescue down south that they were dealing with a hoarding situation and needed help from other rescues t take some of the dogs in. Since we had just brought in 7 I really didn't have the space so I didn't respond. But I went to bed thinking about these dogs and asked God for a sign how I could help. Crazy! That morning I woke up to a text - our boarding kennel had a cancellation so I pretty much took it as a sign. I messaged the other rescue still hoping that all the dogs had found rescues to accept them. Sadly the rescue replied that all the local rescues were full but some were able to squeeze a few in but they were reaching out to surrounding out of state rescues for assistance. I told them if all else fails we could take 4-5 if they had no other options. Well, they responded that they had a bunch left so we agreed for them to send some up on transport. That weekend Kimber, Jessie, Max, and Bandit made their way to us. Luckily another rescuer was at the transport also receiving dogs from the same case and he offered to help me move mine from the transporters crates to mine as mine were older dogs and more of a flight risk if they got loose. So here they are we made it home and we've been working with them on socialization. They get their medical this Friday and then will be looking for their happily ever afters. Temperament- Still very concerned when meeting strangers but settles down and gets better with patience and treats. Jessie wants so badly to be loved but is just still so worried about trusting people. When we sit down and have her favorite snacks she will climb onto our laps and allow us to pet her. She loves attention and I think in time she will blossom into an amazing girl. She is super playful with the other dogs! Energy Level- High energy and super playful. She is absolutely darling to watch playing with Max and Kimber. She runs to play chase and loves toys and will pounce on my hands. She has truly come out of her shell so much. Dogs/Cats- Very playful with the other dogs. Has not met the cats yet Housetrained- She is currently using a dog door perfectly to go out to potty. However, we do recommend continuing housetraining and watching her as though she isn't house trained since it will be a new home and in her old home they weren't allowed outside so we don't want her to revert back into the habit of pottying inside. But she does seem to be doing perfect with the dog door. Oh my goodness Jessie was terrified when she got here however she has truly blossomed and has become so playful and sweet. We no longer need treats to get her to come to us. She loves attention and pets and is just turning into such a sweet, little doll. I can't believe how much she has changed. I have absolutely loved watching her blossom into such a funny, playful girl. She is still standoffish with strangers but warms up quickly with treats. She is going to make a fabulous addition to any family wanting a happy playful girl they can spoil and make up for her past. She did have pyometra which was close to bursting so it is a good thing we got her in when we did for her spay - I truly think it has made a huge difference in her personality- she is just so happy now. Someone will be very lucky to get this beautiful girl. Please be aware she will need to be groomed as her hair gets very long. Adoption fee $300 includes spay, pyometra surgery, age appropriate vaccinations (4 for puppies), deworming, microchip, rabies, collar and leash, training information, and all the support you need.
