If you are viewing Jessica's bio on Petfinder, please click below for more information.

Name:   Jessica       Breed:  Boxer mix

Approximately Age:  10 weeks as of 1/23

Approximately Weight:  18 lbs

Currently Living at:  dc foster

Special adoption considerations: no young children

Hello, my name is Jessica and I'm a 8 week old, 18 pound, female, boxer mix puppy. I am waiting patiently for my forever homes. The nice people at the shelter are great, but I'd love to have homes of my very own. I am really excited to come to DC and hopefully find someone to love me, but I'm kind of nervous, too. Everything is so big and new and different! I'm looking for someone to cuddle us close and tell me everything will be okay. Are you that person?

I've heard a little about furever homes from some of the bigger dogs in the shelter. They sound like a dream come true! I've heard you sometimes get your very own little bed and some toys to share and even some yummy treats. But I'm most looking forward to the cuddles and kisses and love. I just can't wait for a family or person of my own to love with my whole puppy heart! It would be better if my family didn't include young children as I get very excited around them and can be a bit mouthy.

I'm pretty little still, so I'll need some help learning the ropes. I can do it though, I'm really smart and I just want to make you happy and proud of us. I think puppy kindergarten at an obedience school sounds really great. I think I'd like nice long walks and trips to the dog park, too, if it's not too much to ask. Do you think you can help me navigate this great big new world?

Due to a puppy's need for attention and frequent bathroom excursions, we do not adopt dogs under 5 months of age to homes where no one is home during the day. This means no 9-5ers, unless you commit to hiring a dog walker to come multiple times a day.

Jessica is not old enough to have had all of her vaccines. It will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that the remaining puppy vaccines are given at the appropriate time. Please also keep in mind that, until your puppy is fully vaccinated, she is at greater risk for illness than an adult dog.

Like most puppies, Jessica will need to work on her housetraining. Jessica will also need to go to obedience school so she can grow into a well-socialized dog!

The adoption fee for this dog is $400, which includes the cost of transport from the shelter and routine vetting. If you are interested in adopting, please download our  Adoption Questionnaire  and email it to   Kristen at kristenn@luckydoganimalrescue.org .
