Jordy
After 235 days at SNIPSA, Jordy’s rescue journey concluded as he said "hello" to his forever home. Read along as his new family shares the moment they realized he was the one.
We adopted Jordy in February 2025, and from the moment he joined our family, he’s made us smile and laugh every single day.
After losing our beloved lab, Cameron, in 2022, it took time for our hearts to be ready for a new dog. Our daughter and our fox terrier, Zoe, had been hoping for a new friend, but the timing never felt quite right—until it finally did. When we were ready, we knew we wanted to adopt a rescue. With so many dogs in need in our city, it was important to us to give one of them a forever home.
We started following SNIPSA online and checking the website regularly. Jordy’s sweet face and striking green eyes stopped us in our tracks. There was just something about him.
At an adoption event at the Quarry Farmer’s Market, we met so many wonderful dogs—but it was Jordy who stole our hearts. He was being a good boy, helping a volunteer with another adoption, when we got the chance to take him for a walk. Within moments of holding his leash, we just knew—he was our dog.
We had the chance to meet his foster moms and furry foster siblings, and they told us what a special boy he was. Their happy tears meant the world to us. Jordy jumped into our car like he already knew he was going home.
Back at our house, he hit it off right away with his new sister, Zoe. They love chasing each other, wrestling, and going on walks. Zoe is 7 years old, but since Jordy arrived, she has a new spring in her step. Their bond is so sweet to watch.
Jordy is silly, affectionate, and incredibly loving. He stands on his back legs just to be closer to us and insists on tucking his human sister into bed every night. He loves belly rubs, being petted, patrolling the backyard, and being part of the action.
We’re so grateful to SNIPSA and to the amazing fosters who gave Jordy the love and care he needed to become the best family dog. He’s brought so much joy into our home—and we hope his story helps more pups find their perfect people.
