Description:

Jessie is truly one of a kind—a quirky, expressive girl with a personality all her own. She may take a little time to get to know you, but once she does, she’ll steal your heart.

She’s vocal, full of character, and will keep you smiling with her unique ways. Jessie isn’t the kind of dog to rush into trust, but that just makes her love all the more special when she chooses you. Jessie needs a peaceful rural or semi-rural home with direct access to a secure, grassy garden where she can feel safe and comfortable. She’s looking for a family with plenty of patience and understanding—one that will give her the time she needs to adjust to life in a home at her own pace.

A mother’s love knows no bounds, and Jessie’s story is a testament to just how deep that love runs. For weeks, she had been surviving up in the hills, a devoted mother doing everything she could to keep her pups safe, Amos, Annie, Chester, Archie and Asher. Our vet, Denisa, had been feeding her, but Jessie remained wary, disappearing whenever anyone tried to help her. Then, in an act of pure courage, Jessie made a heartbreaking decision—she began carrying her pups, one by one, down from the hills and into town, leaving them by an apartment building where she knew they had a chance. She refused to be rescued until she was certain all of her babies were safe. Jessie and her two boys, Asher and Archie, are still at our shelter, Happy’s, patiently waiting for a loving home to call their own.

If you’re looking for a dog with personality, charm, and a heart worth earning, Jessie is waiting for you. Will you be the one to give her the loving home she deserves?  With the right environment and a gentle approach, Jessie will flourish. She just needs someone willing to give her that chance. Could you be the one to help her find her place in the world?

Thank you for your interest in Jessie. If you would like to apply to adopt one of our dogs, please read the ‘How do I Adopt’ pages, where you can find more information about the process and the costs involved.

As you can imagine, each one of our dogs is very precious to us. They haven’t had the best start in life, and therefore, it is absolutely crucial we find the right homes for them. When you complete a registration form, please tell us as much as you can about why you are looking to adopt a dog and how you think you can meet their needs. Every dog is an individual, and our amazing rehoming team will know exactly what type of home each dog needs to thrive. For example, will the dog cope with a small garden or is it the type of dog who needs to live in a rural environment? Will the dog enjoy being around children, or is it best suited to an adult-only home? Will it cope sharing a home with other pets, or is it best as an only dog? Are you outdoorsy types who like to go hiking, or would you prefer a dog who is happy to snuggle up on the sofa with you? Our rehoming team will be very familiar with the needs of each of our dogs and the information you provide on your application form will help them to match you with the right dog.
