Why I need a new home

Infant, young children or pregnancy

My story

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

Born 4-1-18 Jax is almost 6 years old. He has only been with one owner since he was a puppy. Shots are all up to date.

Jax is very intelligent. He is extremely obedient. Jax knows many commands including: sit, stay, place, crate, drop it, heal, sniff, touch, spin, and out. He is house and crate trained. He loves belly rubs. He loves playing fetch with a ball or frisbee. Loving Dog who will sit at your feet.
He does get nervous around children and can be protective over his owner. This dog belongs to my daughter who has a young child and although Jax has never bitten the child, she sees signs of nervousness and has seen glimpses of aggressive moves toward her 10 month old child so she feels she cannot keep the dog. Jax is currently residing with us (her parents) and he has always been very good for us.
Jax gets along well with dogs he knows. He is E-collar trained. His trainer stated that he is a smart and a typical Ausie who likes to herd. He is an active couch potato!
