Notes from Rose Acres Rescue
Meet John Boy – The Farm-Bred Sweetheart
John Boy is a handsome 3-year-old brindle boy with the cutest ears and an adorable white-speckled chest and paws. Weighing about 35 lbs, he’s the perfect medium size — and while his mix is anyone’s guess (maybe Plott Hound, Mountain Cur, Lab, or Cattle Dog), one thing’s for sure: he’s 100% lovable!
John Boy and his siblings showed up on a farm, where a kind family took them in until space opened at the rescue. He’s great with farm animals, and since arriving, he’s learned both house and leash manners like a champ.
This good boy gets along wonderfully with dogs, cats, and kids, making him an easy fit for almost any home.
John Boy is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and dewormed.
Adoption Fee: $250
If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing companion with a big heart and a country soul, John Boy is ready to be your best friend!
