My story

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

Jax is a happy, young guy! He seems eager to learn all the tricks for all the treats. He has lived with young kids in a couple of his previous homes and done mostly well with them, but he may be a better fit for older kids. His ideal home will be a busy one where he has lots of toys to play with and room to run. He loves fetch!

Volunteers say "We took Jax on a short walk at Stephen's Park and took him to lunch at the outdoor seating at Pasta La Flata. He was great! Super sweet the whole time. He was VERY shy and timid at first, but he warmed up to us after a little while. Jax would be great for anyone really. He seemed interested in the kids at the park like he had maybe been around kiddos before."

"Jax and I went on a drive to Stephens Lake and walked around the lake for a while. Then we went to my house and cuddled on the couch and he took a little nap. Jax wants to be as close as possible when snuggling, he is a love bug and wants as much affection as possible! He takes treats nicely from my hand and is a perfectly behaved gentleman while riding in the car. He didn't seem to want to do anything but be pet and sleep in my arms. What a sweetie pie! He also enjoyed playing fetch."

More about this shelter

Welcome to CMHS! In continuous operation since 1943, the Central Missouri Humane Society promotes the well-being of companion animals – pets that enrich the lives of the people who love them.

The Columbia Humane Society was formed in 1943 to provide shelter and care for Columbia’s abandoned animals. Originating in a little structure on Creasy Springs Road, the organization has grown into today’s Central Missouri Humane Society, a regional animal welfare agency caring for thousands of animals annually and providing veterinary services for low-income pet owners.
