J J is a special boy. He is a 6 year old Cocker Spaniel - Shih Tzu mix and definitely looks very much like a Cocker Spaniel. He was an owner surrender with his mother Pearl who was adopted into her furever home last year. Both JJ and Pearl had not received a lot of vet care in the last couple years. The day after JJ came into rescue he went into the hospital with pancreatitis and was also diagnosed with diabetes. He most likely had had this going on for quite awhile since there were a few days that were touch and go but JJ pulled through and is doing very well in foster care He was a bit chunky when he came into rescue but he s lost a couple pounds and he s a very good boy for his daily insulin shots. JJ loves to be with his person and he s very well mannered. He will need a home that has a strong vet history because he does require daily insulin shots and he will need to stay on a low fat diet since he did have pancreatitis. His condition is very manageable and his medication is not that expensive. His insulin costs about 20-25 a month. JJ loves to go for car rides and walks well on a leash. JJ is also blind from the diabetes but will follow you anywhere as he sees and loves with his heart. He loves to be with his person so if you re looking for a sweet companion JJ is your boy Visit this organization s web site to see any additional information available about this pet. Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so in many cases we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality not by breed label. Our Adoption Process The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here -X -.----X.- info adoption Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days from the time you submit an application please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs. Special Requirements Some dogs may have special requirements (for example medications a fence) -- if you apply for a dog please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you re home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog s biography that a fence is required this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a strong vet reference which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets. The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at -.----X.- forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary grooming and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. No application is approved prior to the home visit being done. At that point the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases there are multiple applications for each dog so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs. Out of State Adoptions We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants however our process requires a home visit so out of state adoptions can take longer. We do not ship our dogs adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio. ... More Info
