Adopt a Pug / Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat)
Ben Brown the Dog needs a home
Thank You Leroy Brown!
One of our loyal supporters and adopters, Irene Hart, wished to save these lives in honor of her big boy, Leroy Brown, who is living like a prince since Irene adopted him. She asked Leroy to please explain why THEY decided to sponsor a life-saving transport, and here's what Leroy had to say: "Hi, I'm Leroy Brown. I'm not scared, hungry or lonely anymore. Because of Joyful Rescues, life is good....I've been adopted into a loving home. I wanted to support a transport, and my mom agreed. We want dogs and cats, from those high kill shelters to find their forever homes too. The transport makes a difference in many lives, and we wanted to be part of that." Heartfelt thanks from all of us at Joyful Rescues, and especially from the lucky passengers that will now be anxious to meet their "forever families" because of their generous sponsorship.
Ben was born about June 21, 2012 and weighs about 17 lbs. He is one of those tiny Jack Russells in our opinion, but the southern shelter thought he was a Chihuahua so you can decide. He is just wonderful with the other dogs and he's good with us and we have found that he just adores children. The staff in the southern shelters don't ask a lot of questions on intake as they feel it is embarrassing to the family relinquishing their pets as the reason is so often financial. So, this is all we know so far and will be learning as we go and so will you. FOSTER UPDATE: Ben enjoys playing with the other small dogs in the house. One thing to caution is that Ben does dig under fences. He has no interest in our cat and loves being close to his humans. He enjoys marrow bones and does ocassionally play with toys. This boy is one awesomely sweet kid who will be happy with a doggy companion or just his humans!!
