My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jet, loving known as Jetter Jetter Jetski, came to PAWS after the person who had him and his brother broke their jaws. Bennie's was a clean break and healed quickly. He is enjoying life with a wonderful mom and dad who love him very much. Unfortunately, Jet's jaw was shattered beyond repair. After many vet visits and consultations, it seemed that the best plan of action was to wait until he was a year old (after all of his growing was complete) and then try to replace the jaw. We had a surgeon lined up and the appointment made but he suddenly decided he did not want to try the procedure. But the good news is that during all of the waiting time, Jet has flourished and grown, despite all of the odds against him. He is a 75 lb, full of life, ready to play, energetic, take on the world, boy! It is now the opinion of the vets that he can live a full and happy life just as he is, without jaw replacement. Yes, he has a disability that requires that he can only eat canned food but that has not stopped him from doing everything that every other dog does. He can tear up stuffed toys with the best of them! He will require a home with someone who can devote the time to making sure he eats only canned food and is never given any hard food or treats that might become lodged and choke him. He will be best in a home with no children. He likes other dogs but tends to play very rough and all out! If you are ready to welcome this very special, precious boy into your home, please go to https://www.pawspaws.org to complete the application. His adoption fee is $200.00.

Additional adoption info

Dogs: The adoption fees for PAWS puppies and dogs start at $200. Occasionally, the adoption fee will be higher and, if that is the case, it will be noted on the animal's profile. When you adopt your new dog or puppy, it will be spayed or neutered, wormed, micro-chipped, and up to date on routine shots. If it is six months or older, it will have been tested for heartworms and placed on a heartworm preventative.

Cats: The adoption fee for most PAWS kittens and cats is $75. When you adopt your new cat or kitten, it will be spayed or neutered, wormed, micro-chipped, and up to date on its shots, with the exception of its rabies shot, which must be given by a vet. IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO ADOPT A CAT OR KITTEN, BE SURE TO BRING A CARRIER OR PET TAXI WITH YOU. WE CANNOT SEND A CAT/KITTEN HOME UNLESS IT IS IN A CARRIER/PET TAXI.

We certainly recommend that you continue your pet's routine vaccination regimen with your veterinarian.

SAME DAY ADOPTIONS ARE NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE, SO IF YOU ARE DRIVING FROM A DISTANCE, PLEASE MAKE ADVANCE ARRANGEMENTS.

IF YOU RENT, YOU MUST BRING A SIGNED RENTAL AGREEMENT FROM YOUR LANDLORD STATING THAT IT IS OKAY FOR YOU TO HAVE AN ANIMAL IN THE HOUSE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A RENTAL AGREEMENT, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE THE COMPANION ANIMAL OF YOUR CHOICE HOME WITH YOU.

OUT OF STATE ADOPTERS ARE ASKED TO PAY THE ADOPTION FEE IN CASH.

PAWS IS NOW EQUIPPED TO TAKE CREDIT CARDS.
