JAZMINE, a 10-year-old hound,
was surrendered when her owner
could no longer care for her. She’s
a gentle soul with lots of love to
give who’s lived with other dogs
(she enjoys their company, but
is not overly playful). Though her
owner kept her mostly outdoors,
she’d love a home where she can
be trained to be indoors with her
family. Come meet this sweet girl!
