Breed: French Bulldog Jack Russell Terrier

Age: Adult
Sex: Male
Size: Small

Description: *ADOPTION PENDING**

Update: Joker's treatment is coming along great and the vet is very happy with his progress. As you can see from the pictures, the redness in his skin has calmed down a lot and he is even starting to grow back some hair. Joker is turning into my shadow. He just loves to follow me around the house. He has even braved the cold for a 3 minute snoop around the back yard! As much as he hates the cold, he is still very good about going out and doing his business. At the moment he is infatuated with the dog toys. He does like to "gut" them so we had to buy some "Joker proof" ones! He is also a very quiet dog, the only time he lets out the occasional bark is when he he hears the door bell or another dog bark on tv!

Joker is French Bulldog/Jack Russell mix, he is about 3 years old and he weighs a solid 16lbs. He is extremely lovable and he just craves attention. He is good with other dogs and I suspect he will be good with kids but we will have to test that out. He came from Tennessee and he is getting used to the snow here. He walks well on a leash too. Joker is currently being treated for Demodectic Mange. This is the non-contagious form of mange that affects dogs with weak immune systems. We are trying to build up his immune system with medication and good nutrition, hopefully that, along with the meds to treat the mange, can cure him of this. Even though his skin has been painful and extremely itchy for the last two years, he is very loving and he just wants to be your buddy, to be part of the pack, and to have his own "person". He is neutered, up to date on shots, heart worm negative, and micro-chipped. His adoption fee is $325.

You must fill out an adoption application before you are allowed to meet the animal. Please complete the adoption application located on our website.

Small Dog Rescue of MN does not negotiate the adoption fee on our dogs and we must charge sales tax on all adoption fees in order to comply with Minnesota state law. Please note that SDR is philisophically opposed to the idea of buying and selling animals, and we support any future legislation that would remove sales tax from adoption fees. Until then, however, we must charge it.

We are offering a microchip placement for your resident dog for small donation to our rescue

Please note that we do not have a shelter, and all dogs are in foster homes.
