Hi guys! My name is Axle! I am a 12-month-old, neutered male pup in need of a loving home. I weigh 44 lbs. and I'm just a big puppy at heart. I am friendly and fun. I love to play and I get along well with other dogs, boys and girls. I'm active, energetic and full of life. I have an upbeat, happy-go-lucky personality. I love to play in the yard, go for walks and jogs, toss around the tennis ball, which is my most favorite toy, and do fun activities with people, like camping or hiking. I am a sweet baby boy who loves to love. I think people are just the best when they spend time with me and play with me. I'm a smart dog who is fully housetrained. I love fetching toys and balls. I enjoy taking walks and exploring what's along the way. I like all kinds of toys, throwing them around, playing tug or just cuddling up with them is big fun for me. I really like people and being petted. Belly rubs are a favorite! Please give me a chance to become part of your family. You'll be so glad you did! Adoption fee: $75. Adopt a pair: $115. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, 60 days of free pet insurance and microchip.

Adoption and Foster Care Application
NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of dogs is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog
as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
Why is labeling a dog such a big deal? A label will stick with a dog for the rest of its life. A label can mean discrimination, losing its home or even death. Labels are a problem for the dogs when we, as the local experts on animals, allow adopters, politicians and community members to think that the label we assign can predict who that dog is or will be.

Adoption Process: Complete the application at
www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
