Ringers Western

💗 RINGERS WESTERN AKA JOLENE — YOUR NEXT SOUL DOG 💗
🐾 AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION 🐾

🎶 Jolene, Jolene, Jolene, Joleeeene… please don’t steal my sandwich off the bench! 🎶🤣

Meet Jolene, a 4-year-old Bull Terrier mix whose favourite thing in the whole world is loving her people. Well… loving her people and eating bananas. 🍌💕

Born on 12 October 2022, this beautiful girl has an enormous amount of affection to share. Her carer describes her as a “soul dog” — the kind of companion who makes an ordinary day feel special just by being beside you.

🥰 EVERYONE IS A POTENTIAL BEST FRIEND

Jolene loves people of all ages! Men, women, older people and children — she is always happy to make a human friend.

She adores kids, but a home with children aged 5 and over would be best, simply because her excited zoomies and enthusiasm could accidentally knock little ones over.

She has also been wonderful with the vet and vet nurses, with no aggression shown during her visits. 💗

🐾 A CLEVER GIRL WITH A FEW PARTY TRICKS

Jolene knows sit, shake and sitting with both paws up. She’ll even stand on her back legs for a cuddle — because apparently four paws on the floor puts her too far away from your face! 😂

She is food motivated, loves praise and walks well in her harness on her daily outings. She also travels well in the car, making adventures together that little bit easier. 🚗

🐶 OTHER ANIMALS

When meeting dogs on walks and at the vet, Jolene has shown no aggression. She has a sniff and happily moves on. Any potential canine housemate would need a suitable introduction.

🐱 She is currently untested with cats.

🛋️ WALKIES, THEN SOMETHING COSY

Jolene could suit an active household or someone who enjoys a quieter lifestyle, provided she gets her daily walk, companionship and affection.

She sleeps through the night in her own bed or a cosy spot on the couch. She is house trained and does well with regular opportunities and reminders to go outside.

Water isn’t her favourite thing, but she tolerates the dog wash — even if she would prefer to skip that particular outing! 🛁🤣

🤍 SHE’S LEARNING THAT YOU WILL COME BACK

Jolene experiences moderate separation anxiety, and her carer has been patiently helping her build confidence when alone.

She has gradually worked up to 3–4 hours, although she still cries or howls for around five minutes initially and may briefly vocalise again once or twice before resettling.

Kongs, treat balls and a calmer environment have helped her. She will need continued, gradual training and a home where someone is around more often, particularly while she settles in.

She has made progress, but her new family needs to understand that this is still a work in progress. 💕

🍌 A SMALL CONFESSION…

Jolene will help herself to food left on the bench. In her defence, she has long legs and apparently believes unattended snacks are a community resource. 🤣

Food and bins will need to be kept securely out of reach of this enthusiastic little opportunist!

❤️‍🩹 HER NEXT CHAPTER

Jolene arrived very underweight, and her vet suspects she may have had multiple litters. Now desexed and receiving care, she is already looking healthier.

We would love her next chapter to be full of comfort, kindness and the chance to simply be someone’s cherished companion.

🏡 Jolene’s ideal home will offer:
💗 Someone home more often
🚶 A daily walk and time together
🧠 Kind, consistent training and plenty of praise
🤍 Ongoing support with her separation anxiety
👧 Children aged 5+
🍌 Secure snack storage!

If you’re looking for a loving girl who wants to share your days, your couch and possibly your banana, Jolene could be your girl. 💕
