New Yorker by rescue.
Jolene came to New York through Hearts & Bones Rescue, and she has been with me for about three years. She is a roughly 19-pound mix of Beagle, Chihuahua and Boston Terrier.
She loves this building, but more importantly, she loves the people in it. Many residents probably know Jolene before they know me, which she considers the correct order of things.
THE LOVE TAX
Treats are welcome.
Affection is mandatory.
Jolene generally requires payment of a love tax before accepting a treat. Payment is accepted in pets, scratches and sincere expressions of admiration.
