Story
Loki is an 8 year old good boy who has been with me since his puppy days. He is decent with dogs but in his old age I notice that he prefers being an only dog. He is good with cats. He has been around children, however I've never left him alone with a child and as he gets older his hearing has started to go to which he has been startled by children , just as a precaution. He is primarily a potato at this age. He lays around for the majority of the day and is a primarily indoor only dog. He doesn't like to stay outside for longer than a yard exploration and he does not enjoy rain; he will not go outside in it! He is wonderful and I want what is best for him unfotunately even if thats no longer with me, which is a quieter life, without stairs and with a yard. He does not have that here. Preferably as an only dog, maybe an older woman and preferably with no children under 10 or so as he prefers the quiet.

Story
Cloud is a 2 - 3 yr old female Border Collie mix. She has a medium energy level, so she should fit well into most homes provided she receives a moderate amount of daily exercise and play. She can be shy initially, but warms up quickly to new people. She likes to sit by her person for snuggles. Cloud does pull on a leash, but with basic obedience training, she should be walking like a champ in no time! She is food motivated, but does not yet know any commands. She mixes well with other dogs in a kennel, but is afraid of cats in the shelter environment. Dogs are generally tested with dogs of their own size; and dog meets with the resident dogs are always encouraged. Our cat test should be used as a general-purpose screening only to rule out overt aggression; we always recommend caution when introducing dogs to cats in the home. Recommendation on suitability of placement with children by their ages is based on behavioral observations including energy level and response to body handling. We never recommend leaving young children unsupervised with dogs, and we cannot guarantee the behavior of dogs with children, other pets, or cats. Behavior evaluations should be considered as a snapshot of the behavior of the dog at this point in time; JHS believes all dog families need to be prepared to invest time and energy into training as well as provide common sense management of their new dog. We always encourage family to do some research on the breeds or mixes of breeds prior to adoption as many can have some unique characteristics that may or may not fit into their families. Always remember that the majority of dogs at our shelter have been exposed to or may have kennel cough. Kennel cough is contagious to other dogs, please talk to your vet if you have any questions about kennel cough prior to adoption. Please ask your adoption counselor at time of adoption if you have any unanswered questions regarding illnesses and treatments of the pet that you are adopting.
