About Jax

Adoption Fee: $200
Border Collie / Lab
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Sweet and silly Jax or as we like to call him our cool as a cucumber Border Collie Lab Mix roughly 3 yrs old @ 56 lbs is looking for a Foster or Foster to Adopt Home. One of our adopters in Kingwood took found him as a stray and we learned he came from Cleveland as a stray where the neighbors were threatening to shoot him again for going after the goats. He did get shot assuming he was in a pen w 2 Pyrenees who killed a goat and had his leg removed in August. Jax can do a little over a mile leash walk BUT in a quad wheel chair this boys world is like any other dog he can go hiking, camping, and enjoy more adventure times and longer walks!! He is still green when it comes to dog play and being a dog who digs for a stick or finds the bug in a bush. Jax learns from the other dogs and would uncomfortable at a dog park, he prefers making dog friends and human companionship w walks. He does fine if someone has a walker, cane or a wheel chair. We think he would be a great candidate for patients in a dentist's office or a therapists office offering his calmness or visiting the hospitals for junior pet therapy stuff. He likes going into stores and really likes dog and human companionship. Jax is a great dog with children too and he can give big hugs so no children under 10. He was treated for heart worms. An ideal home for Jax is someone who works from home, retired or when home they really want to play and spend time with their dog. He maybe handicapped but he isn't a couch potato with his easy going demeanor. If you do have long work days he would love to be with a doggy pack dogs 25 lbs and up and have good exercise before work. Jax just really craves being fully included with his humans and dogs in the home. Jax does fetch and has a very soft mouth never any teeth even w tugging on a toy, he likes to be brushed and car rides and is a great calm BC blend for movie time. A 6 foot wooden fence is best with a good size yard or he can do a smaller space like an apartment with lots of walks and maybe some wheel time. Don't let life pass you by without adding Jax to it. His adoption donation is $200 with an application to adopt Jax and home visit if applicable.
