Jade is also from the group where Jack came from. She has many of the same except she is extremely frightened…just recently I have been able to take off her lead in the house. She is very playful with other whippets in the home, the whippets she came in with and the resident whippets…however, she has no thinking of personal space and the other dog in the home would have to be tolerant of her … she doesn’t seem to take “stop” as an option. She is very food motivated, but will take some time to take out of your hand. She also missed a very important part of her beginning life with no knowledge of live! She is a fawn dilute brindle with very penetrating eyes … hence her name “Jade”.
She keeps a clean crate, but must be watched when out as she goes to the door, but isn’t the best at letting me know! Currently her schedule is every few hours …. especially if playing for a while with the other dogs. She goes nicely in her crate and only lets me know she is in their is in the morning when she can hear I am up and letting out the other dogs.
PLEASE NOTE – WRAP does not ship, must be within a few hours from the Chicagoland area as he was very shelter and very nervous and is a flight risk. Touching states would be considered if it was the best home for Jade and the adopter. Jade will not be adopted to a home where there is no other dog, (it is preferred a sighthound) or at least a dog of his size and temperament. Also mandatory is a secured privacy fence as she was never introduced to life in general nor socialized at a younger age and only grew up with his siblings. If you are able to meet Jade’s needs and location, you can submit your application.
An adoption application is REQUIRED to be submitted before you contact a WRAP foster volunteer about this rescue or others currently available for adoption. Please submit an application. WRAP volunteers may respond to applicants and will make final decisions on adoptions. We will keep your application on file for six months.
WRAP does not ship dogs and prefers to place Whippets in homes within a reasonable driving distance from the foster home. If the WRAP volunteer fostering a dog does not live in your state you may contact them at the email address shown above to inquire after you have submitted an adoption application.
