Pet of the Week: Apple Jack

Meet Apple Jack, a small shepherd mix who needs a forever home. Here is what his friends at Safe Haven Puppy Rescue have to say about him:

Little Apple Jack is a total lover who is in foster care in Northen Virginia. He just wants to be with his people and shower them with affection — even some puppy kisses!

He’s laid back, not the least bit alpha, so we think he’d do great in many different adoptive situations. We were told he had some kind of smaller shepherd in him along with maybe a touch of Jack Russell, but it seems like the shepherd side won the genetic war because this boy is a pretty mellow fellow.

We think he might be around 25 pounds or so when grown, so if you’re looking for a smaller dog who would bond with you and be a great best friend, Apple Jack is your man.

Apple Jack is up to date on all shots and dewormings, and carries an adoption fee of $329. We can also have him micro chipped for only $25 additional. This extremely friendly fella is going to bring lots of joy to some lucky adopters, so don’t delay, get your application in to your coordinator Bob at [email protected].
