A little about them

Jessie is a sweet, silly mixed-breed pup at the Bucktown Adoption Center in Chicago. She loves toys, enjoys making new dog friends, and is gaining confidence on city walks with time and positive reinforcement. Her breed makeup is unknown because she has not been DNA tested.

Ideal Home

Jessie gets along with other dogs and may enjoy a canine companion. She has not met cats or children in our care yet; slow introductions are needed in a home with cats, and respectful children may be a good fit.

Ongoing Health

Jessie is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She is heartworm positive and currently on activity restriction while receiving treatment at Ellis Clinic at no cost to her adopter. Heartworm is treatable, and most dogs make a full recovery.

Training & Support

We are still learning about Jessie's housebreaking and crate training. She is nervous on walks in the big city but is gaining confidence with positive reinforcement.
