Update on J.D.

A few weeks ago, we introduced J.D, a 1 year old Italian Greyhound/Poodle mix who had begun his training to become a therapy dog. J.D. has now completed his basic obedience training and is ready to be adopted. While waiting for the "perfect forever family" for him, he is staying at K9s Only where he is continuing to work on his socialization in public and with other dogs.
Sharon Vincuilla, Lend A Paw Coordinator and Training Manager at K9s Only says that "he is doing so great and is much more confident."
So if you, or someone you know, is interested in J.D. and the Lend A Paw program, please contact Sharon Vincuilla. You can also meet J.D. in person, at K9s Only or at the next New Leash On Life's Mobile Pet Adoption Event on:
