Jasmine Searching For Love

Update: Jasmine has been placed in a family with three children and another Jack Russell. Let's pray this marriage lasts!

This request comes from my sister- in- law in South Carolina who raises Jack Russell Terriers and has been helping in dog rescue for many years. Jasmine is a year old Jack Russell. She belonged to a family who kicked her out in the backyard after she passed that cute puppy stage, then left her to entertain herself. We all know the rest of this story. Jasmine dug under the fence to escape boredom and search for the attention and stimulation she needs. I'm sure the family did what many families do; they caught the dog, covered the hole and stuck the dog back in the yard. After they tired of this routine, they decided the dog was too troublesome and here she is, on the internet, dating again. She never thought she'd be searching for love at this stage in her life. She thought she was loved and settled forever. But divorce happens, even to the best of dogs. So, if you know someone who's looking for a longterm relationship, the "til death do us part" kind of deal, this dog's for you. She's housebroken (very important when you're looking for a life partner), kid friendly, and gets along with her own kind. Her foster home is working on the digging under the fence issue, but in my experience that impulse is forgotten when a dog gets the attention it needs. If Jasmine sounds like the girl for you, email me and I'll pass the info on.
