02/26/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: His name is confounding, but this dog is easily understood and described with the simplest of language: Kind. Gentle. Dear. Mellow. Affectionate. Beautifully-mannered. Dare we say…perfect? We think we can! We fell hard for this love of a boy and know you will, too. He’s had such a rough time of it up until now, judging from the way he looks (he would benefit from a warm bath and many warm meals) and yet his kindness is unparalleled. He wags his tail at dogs and people as he walks along, and we both pretend one of the affectionate passers by will be his future owner. Please, don’t let this angel be passed by any longer!

JR engages in bouts of plays with males and females. He makes intent to mount females during interaction,but has responded well to correction for other dogs. Based on observation made on JR during playgroup, the behavior department feels that JR would do best in a home with another playful dog- but a pre-adoption interaction is recommended to ensure compatability with a resident dog.
