Meet Jimmie! He’s around 6 years old and we believe he is a yellow Lab mix. Jimmie is good with all dogs, big and small, and plays well with them. He has lived with cats and will bark and chase them in a playful manner so we think it’s best he doesn’t go to a home with a cat.
Jimmie is a lover who is friendly and social with all he meets. He has an old leg injury and received surgery but he is now all healed up and ready to play! He is very playful, loves squeaky toys, and enjoys chasing after balls. He loves to go for walks and spend time with his people.
Jimmie came to the shelter from a rescue partner who nursed him back to health after being found starving and in desperate shape. She transferred him to us and we knew his journey to a full recovery wasn’t over, but we never expected it to be this bad.
Jimmie arrived with a bone infection so bad he could barely walk- and he needed emergency surgery. He made it through a successful FHO surgery, endless weekly vet visits, daily medications, bandage changes, and prolonged crate rest (all while under the care of his dedicated foster family) and is now ready to find his forever family!
This sweet boy is a volunteer favorite, but because he’s an adult dog he gets overlooked by adopters. He still has so much life left to live- and this guy is the happiest dog and determined to live it to the fullest!
