Meet Jace
Oh boy, do we have a handsome pup to introduce you to! This is Jace, he is currently on the hunt for a new foster home, or even better, his forever home!

He came to us from This Is Houston after they were contacted by Harris County Animal Shelter about a sick 7 week old puppy with parvovirus that wasn’t doing well in the shelter environment, and was set to be euthanized. Thankfully, they had a foster ready and willing to take him in and they got him into ER right away. After two blood transfusions and a few days of hospitalization, he was able to be released from the hospital and onto a better life! Unfortunately, once he continued to be in foster care, it was discovered that Jace had some type of previous injury that made his tail paralyzed. With this injury, he is incontinent and wears diapers in the house and needs his back end to be extra clean with a little help from his humans, but that sure doesn’t bother him or slow him down! He currently does not have mobility issues, but his tail does hang down. This adorable pup truly is a fighter!

Jace the husky made the trip up to Wisconsin and is now about 4 months old and currently weighs under 25 pounds but will definitely continue to grow. He is the friendliest little guy and loves people! Jace loves playing with other dogs and enjoys time with toys. In true husky fashion, Jace enjoys “talking” and howling to express his feelings. His foster gives him nightly back end baths to keep him clean and happy and he does really well with them! He loves the water and loves when his foster mom fills up a spray bottle and sprays it at him, he will try his best to catch the squirt of water in his mouth ?. This little fella doesn’t fear much, but is still working on enjoying car rides, for right now he just lays down and waits for the ride to be over. Jace is great in his crate and can stay in there during the day with no issues. What a champ! He has been exposed to cats in his foster home and does try to play with them. If you give him a correction and tell him “no”, he does listen and leaves them alone.

His foster mom describes him as incredibly sweet and amazing. He will make any family very happy! His ideal home would not have a lot of carpeting as it would be easier to keep clean in case of an accident with his incontinence. Jace is currently in search of a home and needs a family that will cater to his special needs. He sleeps in the kennel with a potty pad over his bed to help keep the bed clean and in the house wears diapers.

If you would like to help Jace find his forever home by taking him on as a foster, please email us at misfitmuttsdogrescue@gmail.com. You can also email us with any additional questions about his care needs or about our adoption process!
