My story

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

Hi, I’m Jay!

I’m a 4-year-old Pit Bull/Border Collie mix and I came to the shelter with my brother, Dobbi. We’re littermates, so we’re pretty close, but I’m ready to find my forever home. I’m an active and playful guy who loves attention and can get a little jumpy when I’m excited (but it’s just because I’m happy to see you!). I can be a bit mouthy, too—but don’t worry, it’s not mean at all. I just like to carry things around in my mouth, especially balls! If you throw a ball, I’ll be there in a flash!

I’m a smart boy and I already know some cool tricks like “sit,” “stay,” and “kennel,” and I’m really treat motivated, so if you’re looking to work on my leash manners or teach me new things, I’ll be all in. I’m housebroken, crate trained, and I’m always up for some fun. I’m good with dogs, cats, and kids—though because I can be a little jumpy and mouthy, I think I’d be happiest in a home with kids 10 and older.

I’ve got one little quirk: I’m allergic to chicken, so I’ll need to be fed chicken-free food and treats. No problem, though—I’m easygoing and happy as long as I get my meals (and snacks!) just the way I like them.

If you’re looking for an affectionate, energetic, and fun-loving companion, I just might be the one for you. I can’t wait to meet you and show you just how awesome life with me will be!

More about this shelter

In August of 2015, the Idaho Falls community realized its dream of opening a second animal sheltering facility. Unlike other animal shelters, the Snake River Animal Shelter (SRAS) will provide an animal an unlimited length of stay, thus avoiding the need for euthanasia.

SRAS was built to take owner surrenders and transfer animals from other shelters throughout the Upper Snake River Valley, thus relieving overcrowding at the city operated animal shelters throughout East Idaho. We operate solely on donations, grants and sponsorships from businesses and individuals. This unique place offers adoption services and a place for the animals to socialize with each other and their future families. Education is a large part of the existence of this facility, educating the community about proper pet care and responsibilities. We also facilitate and partner in spay and neuter programs to alleviate the problem of too many unwanted domestic animals. Snake River Animal Shelter offers Elementary-age field trips, tours, and presentations and invites teens to participate in the care and feeding of the SRAS animals. Senior citizens are welcome guests and fulfill many volunteer positions that are essential for the care of our animals.
