Jiffy

Description

Location: Erlanger, KY AVAILABLE  Jiffy Jiffy was found in a landfill as a small pup, with a peanut butter jar stuck on her head. Luckily she was trapped and rescued by a nice human and is now living the good life! Since Jiffy didn’t have any human interaction for the first few months of her life, it took a while for her to come out of her shell. She’s now approximately 5mo old and doing well! She has done AMAZING with potty training and crate training. LOVES all people and other dogs. Lives with children in her foster home and is great with them (but is still in her jumpy, bitey phase of puppyhood). She also lives with a cat and although she shows some interest in him, generally ignores him. Jiffy is so snuggly and loves to follow you around, requesting belly rubs.  Jiffy has made lots of progress with her training lately, she’s being so brave and learning to explore! She’s relaxed on car rides and still working on leash walking. Having  a confident resident dog at home helps Jiffy feel confident, and she loves having a playmate. She loves to chew on a bone, which also helps occupy her puppy teeth and keep her out of mischief. Her foster mom works with her a lot on nail trims, visiting unfamiliar environments and walking on a leash. Jiffy has a good “sit”, “down” and is working on “leave it” and “off/ stop jumping on people”. Long story short- Jiffy is still a puppy and will need continued training and patience. A fenced in yard is required for jiffy’s forever home, due to her lack of confidence on a leash. And a confident resident dog is highly recommended, as she is a better dog when she has a buddy to lean on and help her build her confidence.  She is up to date on vaccines and preventatives and will be adopted out with a spay contract. Jiffy’s foster mom is more than happy to answer any questions about her, contact her at haleykeslar@gmail.com.    Apply to adopt Jiffy at www.acdra.org/adoption-application
