Many have watched Jazzy grow in her foster home via facebook and our website. She traveled a very long road to recovery to get where she is today. She came to BHNW from an Oregon shelter where she was a very sick stray dog that unsurprisingly was never claimed. BHNW opened their hearts to Jazzy and are truly glad they did.
Jazzy has lived in the care of BHNW co-founder Tegan Locker for one year and is a very different dog today than she was one year ago. She had fly strike that completely chewed up her ears and they were hairless from mange along with the rest of her body. She had not been spayed and had an umbilical hernia, but was too sick to undergo a surgery until she was mange free and had been that way and stable for more than a month. Last winter she was finally ready to be spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, have the hernia fixed, and a lump removed from her shoulder.
Today Jazzy still lives happily in her foster home but she is in need of a true dedicated owner who can love her like her foster home does. Someone who knows that her imperfections and lack of hair are what actually make her perfect.
Jazzy does have some behavioral issues that are well controlled by her foster home regarding sharing of Jazzy's loved ones and tasty bones. She would do best with an owner who has no other dogs actually living in the home so she can love her people all by herself, and who can spend a great amount of time with her. If you are retired, work from home, can bring a dog to work, love to snuggle in bed with half-furry four-legged friends, don't mind Frenchie toots, the occasional medical bill, can occasionally provide baby lotion for dry skin, feed a diet of good grain-free dog food, have enough closet space for Jazzy's wardrobe, think dogs need sunscreen, and most importantly are looking for unconditional love... please consider applying for Jazzy.
Jazzy needs to stay in Western WA and will not be shipped. Jazzy does well with "laid back dog-savvy" cats. Please apply through the Adoptable Dog page.
