My story

Swipe Right on Jax - 9 Years Young - 93 lbs of Pure CharacterHey there, I’m Jax! If you’re looking for a cookie-cutter, average kind of guy, you might want to keep swiping. The staff here would probably describe me as a pretty unique gentleman. I march to the beat of my own drum, and I’m looking for someone really special who can see just how amazing my quirks are.I’m a big guy, but I`ve got some wonderfully endearing habits. When we go on walks and I spot my friends, my signature move is to lay right down and patiently wait for them to come over and shower me with love. And when we`re in the play yard? That’s my absolute favorite place, because as soon as the staff tries to leash me up, I like to initiate a very fun, very enthusiastic game of tag!At the end of the day, I’m a massive cuddle bug who enjoys kisses and hugs—though, just like anyone, I appreciate having my own personal space to unwind too.My Ideal Relationship:The Right Dynamic: I get along great with other dogs of all sizes! However, cats are definitely a dealbreaker for me, and young children are just a bit too much for my vibe. I do best in a more mature, understanding environment.The Perfect Partner: I can be a bit shy on the first date, but once we become friends, I am fiercely loyal. I will stick by your side through absolutely everything.A Little About My Past:I’m looking for that perfect person who can give me a true second chance at life. The amazing folks here saved me when I needed it most, and now I’m ready to pay all that love forward to a forever family.Think you’re the special someone I’ve been waiting for? Come meet me—I promise, you won`t regret it!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Jax, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
