Original: Poor Jo Jo, he was originally rescued about 5 years ago when the family that had him couldn’t stand his constant scratching. A concern woman working with rescue took Jo Jo to the vet for Advantage because he was flea infested. Over the next 2 months she called back to check on him and the owners said they didn’t want him anymore.
For 4 years Jo Jo thought he found a good home in Winchester Va. But, since bringing their baby home Jo Jo didn’t get as much attention as he deserved. Jo Jo did not adjust well to having the baby in the home. He will not be placed in a home with children under the age of 10.
Jo Jo doesn’t have any behavior problems, he listens fairly well, he is housebroken and has the run of the house during the day. He sleeps on his bed on the floor at night, and I have been told he is crate trained. He doesn’t have any medical conditions except a small cataract in one eye. He gets along well with older children and gets along good with my springer except he can get aggressive when food is involved. He definitely wants to be the Alpha dog.
Jo Jo doesn’t show an interest in playing with toys or other dogs, but he loves to go out for walks. He is a great dog, loyal, affectionate, and easy going.
Jo Jo would make a great companion who would be happy to keep you company walking or lying at you feet.
