My personality

My story

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

Hi, I’m Jax! I’m a gorgeous, black tri Australian Shepherd who’s been taken great care of my whole life. My vet records are pristine, and I am up to date on medical care. I go to daycare to have fun with my dog pals, and I’ve had some basic training. Being an Aussie, I’m super smart, and I’d thrive with an active family that loves adventures. I could definitely use someone who wants to keep up with me, whether it’s more daycare, hikes, or just exploring new places! At the end of the day, I just want to be with my family. I am a Velcro dog and enjoy being with and cuddling with my people.

I’ve lived with small children and have been great with them. I also get along well with other dogs and tend to ignore cats, so I’m pretty adaptable in different living situations. I’m house-trained and crate-trained, which means I’m ready to settle into a new routine with ease.

If you’re looking for a loving, energetic, and smart dog to join your family, I’d love to meet you. I’m a wonderful family dog, and I can’t wait to find my forever home!

Take the Pet Home

Additional adoption info

A home check may be performed when taking the pet home. This is up to the discretion of the rescue founder and may be performed upon her decision. This step will ensure our animals are going into the best possible homes and will never be treated as less than a best friend and companion ever again. We are dedicated to the best possible fit for each animal that comes into our care.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are 100% foster and volunteer run. Therefore, the first step in meeting one of our adoptable pets will be to submit an adoption application by following the link posted above to either our website or directly to our adoption application. Once an adoption application has been approved, we can set up a meet and greet with the applicant and the animal the applicant is interested in. Please allow 24-72 business hours to receive an answer back about your application, as all of our volunteers and fosters have additional jobs outside of the rescue and use their spare time to provide care to these animals in our program.

Adoption events can also be found posted on our Facebook and Instagram pages located under the name "Happy Tails Canine Rescue". These events are open to the public and do not require an adoption application in advance to meet any of our pets that will be attending.
