About Janice

Janice is a sweet and spirited 2-year-old, 45lb Labrador mix who is ready to find her forever home. She was rescued from the euthanasia list at an overcrowded Houston shelter and has embraced her second chance with a happy, loving personality. Janice is spayed, fully vaccinated, and up to date on preventatives. She is both crate trained and potty trained, sleeping soundly in her crate at night and settling well when left alone for up to six hours. Janice has learned what belongs to her and happily sticks to her chew toys and plushies, especially when it's time for a game of fetch.

Ideal Home

Janice would thrive in an active home that can provide daily walks, playtime, and lots of love. A yard or a playful dog buddy would be a bonus, but she'd also be happy as the center of attention.

Ongoing Health

Janice is spayed, fully vaccinated, and up to date on preventatives.

Training & Support

Janice can be a bit jumpy when greeting new friends, but it's all part of her enthusiastic charm and something she's continuing to work on. She's been around a young child and did well, though older, dog-savvy kids would likely be the best fit. On leash, she may pull a little out of excitement, but she's not very strong and is already improving with guidance.

Application Details:

  • Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
  • Please note, once completing the initial screen you will be connected with the placement for a video chat. Transports run every few weeks and we will have the dog on the next available transport once approved. If you are not able to accept a dog until a specific time period, please apply at that time.
  • We are a volunteer-run rescue and donate our time to these dogs. If you are not serious about moving forward in our adoption process, please do not apply. If someone other than yourself is part of the decision-making process, please make sure you have spoken with them and they are on board. We really do not want to waste anyone's time if you are not serious about adopting this dog.
