Vetting and other: before he came to us, the shelter sent him to their vet for a shave down which revealed a skin infection (which was treated with antibiotics and baths AND it also revealed two masses (behind his right rear leg and on his chest) - that is when they contacted us for help.

Biography: Jett came to us from animal control. This sweet boy came to them heavily matted. It was so bad that they sent him to their vet for sedation and shave down. He had a bacterial skin infection under all of that mess and it also revealed two masses at which time, animal control contacted us. Everything has been done and he's now ready for adoption. This boy is so sweet and gentle. He does fine in a kennel if needed and walks pretty well on a leash. He is very food motivated and nosed out our kitchen and feed time pretty quick. For that reason, we recommend you don't free-feed him, but feed twice a day the recommended amount or even a little less. Jett gets along with everyone and causes no issues at the rescue at all. He's quiet and if you didn't know he was around, you wouldn't know he was around. LOL! One of the best dogs we have right now. He's looking for a home that will appreciate his kind and gentle temperament and treat him like he should've always been treated... with care and love. If that's YOU, we welcome your application!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

*We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved. We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.

*Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever! We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family! We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds. There is no exception to this rule!

*PREDATORS: IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times! PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER! For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna’s house… RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR. Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive. TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!

*NO SMALL CHILDREN!! As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended. Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL! Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.

*HOUSETRAINING: We d
