Sometimes a little love is all we need in life. Meet Jenkins, a gent who could use exactly that. This seven-year-old pup adores affection, snuggles, a few gentle pets, and the comfort of knowing his family is near. He’s a low energy dog, which is perfect for this guy.
Jenkins lacks the ability to hear or see well, but he makes up for those shortcomings in other ways. He’s gentle with adults and children and prefers to spend time lying down with other dogs. He’s content with feline friends, too. He might need to be reminded that his people are nearby with a gentle touch rather than just sweet talk.
As he faces a few hurdles with his health, he settles into his crate at night and enjoys a safe yard during the day to attend to his outside needs. He’ll need extra TLC, but don’t we all need a little bit of extra “L” in our lives? Jenkins can share his love as much as he enjoys getting it.
Jenkins is available for pre-adoption and may not be officially ready for adoption, as he is still undergoing medical treatment. Depending on his medical status, a Meet and Greet may be put on hold until he can safely participate in a meeting with potential adopters. In some cases, Jenkins may be able to move to his forever home while he is still under the medical care of Dallas Pets Alive. If you are interested in learning more, apply now and one of our Adoption Counselors will discuss the options available so you can bring home your new furry family member!
