Meet JJ A Gentle Soul in Need of a Quiet Place to Land We would like you to meet JJ, a 16-year-old male Poodle mix weighing just 14lbs, who came to us under unfortunate circumstances. JJ was left unattended in our lobby by his owner who walked away from without a second look. Through his microchip, we were able to identify him, his age, and the owner. At first glance, we knew we needed to begin providing the care he desperately needed. Following a veterinary exam, it was determined that JJ required a sedated, full medical shave to properly assess his condition. Years of neglected basic care had resulted in severe matting from head to toe, significantly overgrown nails, and restricted movement. The matting had become so extensive that it interfered with normal bodily functions. JJ also arrived with tape wrapped around his ears and legs. The tape wrapped around his legs caused severe swelling in his feet. Despite everything he has endured, JJ has remained incredibly patient, calm, and gentle. His resilience and sweet nature have touched everyone who has met him. Due to his advanced age and the stress of a shelter environment, we are urgently seeking a quiet, loving home or rescue placement where JJ can spend the remainder of his life in comfort, dignity, and peace. He deserves warmth, kindness, and consistent care for his golden years. If you are a rescue organization or experienced adopter who may be able to provide JJ with a soft place to land, please contact the Rockwall Adoption Center directly by phone or email to discuss next steps and additional details. JJ still has love to give he just needs someone willing to give it back.
