Adoptable pooches Jack and Zoe go everywhere together

By James Cullum

Jack and Zoe might not look alike, but these adoptable siblings are inseparable.

Jack is a seven-year-old tricolor terrier mix, and has lived with Zoe, a 12-year-old gray miniature Schnauzer mix, his entire life.

“Jack is an outgoing, affectionate guy who loves to climb into your lap and cover  you with puppy kisses, and Zoe is an active gal who enjoys a brisk walk,” said Gina Hardter, spokesperson with the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.

Thanks to a generous donor, Zoe and Jack’s adoption fees have already been paid. Visit AlexandriaAnimals.org/Adopt-By-Appointment to meet them.
