Jade

Jade’s life before rescue was a difficult one. She lived on and around the horse racing track, nervous and hard to catch, seen by many as she went through litter after litter of pups. In September 2025, a trap was set and Jade was finally caught — just in time. The very next day she gave birth, but this time in the safety of the veterinary clinic. Healthy and strong, albeit a bit underweight, she was quickly discharged to Ocean Acres, where she lovingly nursed her babies until they were ready to move on.

During that time Jade remained timid, and we gave her the space she needed while she cared for her pups. Once they were weaned, she began her socialization lessons and has come on beautifully. She now walks nicely on a lead, though she may always carry a touch of shyness in her nature.

Jade is ready for her next steps: a loving home where she can receive one-on-one attention, care, and the chance to discover what family life truly means. She gets along ok with other dogs but is content being the only dog. She is fine around cats and has shown she can tolerate and be gentle with calm children, having joined field trips when kids visited Ocean Acres. What Jade needs most is a calm home where she can relax and continue her journey at her own pace.

She has never lived in a house before, so she will need guidance with house rules. With patience, kindness, and routine, Jade will flourish and reveal the wonderful companion she is meant to be.

Jade is approximately 12lbs
