9+ year old Jake was given up because of a divorce and moving.  Born in Ohio, he spent his entire life with his family near Pittsburgh, PA. Although nervous and sad he no longer had his home he decided not to let that get him down and looked forward to the new people he would meet through TSWR. Starting over at his age would be a challenge but he was up for it.  After spending a few months vacationing with a wonderful foster family in New Jersey who gave him lots of love and attention and prepared him for his next adventure, he decided to make New Hamshire his permanent home when he found out there was an adopter who was a perfect match for him.

Who says older dogs can't adjust! This is what his new family had to say after only 2 weeks: He snuck into bed with us the first night. He does have a habit of being on the bed and furniture. We took Jake to the vet. He is in good health!! There seems to be no adjustment period, he just dove in with all 4 paws. We have taken several walks. When I am out walking him people have stopped to tell me how beautiful he is. He is eating well and is a good listener. We just love that dog and he loves us!! I have been truly blessed with a new dog and new friends. Thank you.
