Timmy is a 7-month-old, 21-pound Jack Russell Terrier blend with a sweetheart and a gentle soul. His story began when he, his mom, and his siblings were abandoned in a backyard. Thankfully, a caring neighbor reached out for help, giving this little family a chance at a better life. Timmy came into foster care with two of his siblings, who have since found their forever homes. Now it's Timmy's turn!
Ideal Home

He is naturally cautious with new people and situations and needs a family that understands that relationships are built with positive reinforcement.
Ongoing Health
Timmy is in good health and has no known medical conditions.
Training & Support
Timmy is naturally cautious with new people and situations and takes time to trust. He needs a family that understands that relationships are built with positive reinforcement. He recently completed three weeks of summer camp training and made tremendous progress, showing just how much potential he has when given patience, guidance, and understanding. His foster mom describes him as incredibly loving and super sweet. Despite being shy and unsure in new situations, Timmy has never once growled or shown any type of aggression. When he feels safe, his affectionate and happy nature shines through. Timmy needs that very special home – one that truly understands him and appreciates him for who he is. His cautious nature isn't something that will magically disappear; he simply needs people who will meet him where he is and help him continue building confidence. In return, you'll get to watch a shy dog blossom and learn the world isn't out to get him! In his foster home, Timmy has been a very well-behaved boy.
