About Jess
Jess is a sweet and very smart collie cross. She is the kind of dog who people are instantly drawn to as she is very affectionate, yet quite shy. Jess is just recovering from her desexing operation - yet she even manages to look cute in a protective cone. An ideal home for Jess would offer consistency, peacefulness and plenty of exercise. Jess has got a lot less timid since arriving at the centre, she is learning to walk on a lead and she has met lots of new people and even played with a few dog friends. If you would like a loyal young dog with plenty of potential apply to meet Jess today.
