Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My Name is Jax! I am a 5-year-old, Red Tri, that will steal your girl. For real, women are my preferred tall breed of hoomans. They give the best ear scratches and feed me a billion water biscuits (my FAVORITE!).
I just love my foster mom, but I do also love boy hoomans as well, it just takes me a minute to warm up to them. I may bark at first, but it's only to get your attention.
I was left in my crate for 12+ hours a day before my foster mom took me home with her and if I ever get to barking, I am letting you know that I need to go potty. 2–3-hour max is my preferred time between potty breaks, because I absolutely love water. I have NEVER pottied in my foster Mommy’s home. Paws honor!
If you love to hike, go for long car rides and walk/run, SO DO I, so please take me with you. I am the BEST car rider and will sit on my seat like a good boy. I love to give you kisses, if you give me tons of belly rubs and butt scratches. Oh, I LOVE balls! I will come with A LOT because I love to chase them, run with them, catch them and will also bring them back to you if you ask nicely. My foster mom has two other fur friends, and I really like playing with the small energetic one. I am gentle with her but have never met other pups before and will need to be consistently socialized to bring out my personality.
One silly quirk about me, I love to steal socks when you aren't looking. But I never chew them up. I know how to listen to my hoomans and can sit, stay, and KISS on command! I HOPE YOU PICK ME!!!!
Jax is Neutered, UTD and on Flea/Tick/HW preventative. He is crate, leash and potty trained If you feel like you are the Furever hooman/family that Jax is looking for please fill out the application!
