Meet Jella! Jella is an adorable 2 year old Jindo mix. She is a very gentle, very sweet and easy-going girl. Jella is an active dog who will need daily exercise and mental stimulation. She enjoys playing tug and fetch with her squeaky ball and her daily walks! She also likes hanging out on the couch/bed with her people, but likes her own space equally. Belly rubs, head and neck scratches are her favorite! She loves greeting her foster parents in the morning with an excited wagging tail and snuggling with them. She will lean on you with her front paws to ask for attention and brush her head against you.
Jella is house-trained and does great with a schedule. She’s very intelligent and picks up on tone and voice quickly. She knows that when she sits she’ll get her treat and she always asks for permission before getting on any furniture. Jella is very calm in the presence of other dogs and humans. She would do well on playdates with dogs who are of her size or smaller. Jella is a little scared of extremely loud noises and big dogs, she’ll most likely hide behind her people when she’s scared.
Jella has a slight crunch in her right hind-leg due to a previous injury and vet suggests carpeted flooring and no jumping on furniture to prevent early on-set arthritis. High impact exercise is discouraged, she can run and play as usual. She needs some time to adjust and bond to a new home, but once opened up she’s the sweetest girl. She loves to follow her foster family everywhere they go! We are looking for a dog-savvy household or a patient, very loving family who is willing to give her time and encouragement. Due to her shy nature, a home with older children are best. Jella is patiently waiting!
