Meet Jackie! This adorable 4-year-old, 11-lb. chihuahua mix looks like a little chi-corgi and has a heart just as big as her personality!
Jackie was a last-call dog at the shelter due to a hernia that required emergency surgery. Thankfully, she was given a second chance, and today she’s healthy, happy and ready for her next chapter!
Jackie may be timid when you first meet her, but once she trusts you, she bonds with her entire heart. She has medium energy and LOVES to work! When she gets excited, her little body spins, and her tail wags as fast as it possibly can. It’s impossible not to smile watching her. She also enjoys playing with toys.
She gets along with other dogs but is more of a laid-back companion than a playful pup. Her favorite thing is being close to her people and soaking up all the cuddles she can get. Since she is timid upon meeting, if the home has kids they should be older, respectful and know how to approach her calmly. She needs to build a relationship with her people, and learn trust with strangers. We do want an active family for her, one who can take her on daily walks, on adventures with them, and include her as part of the family.
Jackie is crate-trained is currently completing a board-and-train program, where she’s learning excellent leash manners, recall, and a solid place/stay. Since she is in a kennel, we are not 100% sure if she is house trained, but we think it is best if she can be taken out on a consistent schedule.
After everything this little girl has been through, she deserves a family who will give her the love, security and happily-ever-after she’s been waiting for. Could Jackie be your perfect little sidekick?
