My story

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

Hi nice to meet you my name is Jaxx! Let me introduce myself! This is my second time being put up for adoption my humans are moving and can’t take me along. I am 7 years young and I love my people. I love following mom around the house while she does chores and I love to stick by her side. I love sitting with my humans as they watch tv to catch up on the latest show. I have a very calm personality and love to relax while my humans relax but I also love to play when it’s playtime. I love to play tug of war and I will let you know I’m having a great time with my voice. When it’s time to eat I get excited and show you with a little hop. If I need something I like to nudge your arm to let you know, mom asks me what I need and I try to use my voice to tell her, when she gets up to help me find what I need I guide her enthusiastically. I love to communicate! I make an amazing cuddle buddy, a great guard dog, and forever friend and I would really love to find my forever home!

More about this rescue

Karina Macias always loved pets, but after witnessing a tragic accident where a careless driver hit a dog and let him die on the street, she decided to take action helping vulnerable animals and got involved in a local rescue.

She helped transporting, fostering, and donating money to save animals from shelters or from owners who for different reasons were unable to care for their pets. Over the years, her passion intensified and with little resources decided to start in 2017 her own nonprofit organization, “Angels with Me”.

Karina’s goal is to focus in helping the most unfortunate, less desirable dogs due to their old age, blindness, or other qualities that make them not wanted or less attractive for adoption. She dreams of having a sanctuary where pets can live their last days with dignity and love. She is aware that many organizations are working hard to rescue pets and place them in a good family, but there is a great need to find people who have great compassion for dogs who are old, mixed breed, very sick or handicapped. These are the harder to give in adoption, Karina states. Most people look for the nice, fluffy dogs or puppies. The ones left behind are the less adoptable usually being euthanized.

“It breaks my heart when a dog is not wanted. I don’t have children at this moment, but I believe happiness is being a wonderful fur mom. It means giving love, attention, and caring for the voiceless ‘Unconditionally,'” Karina proudly said.

Her regular job is working with children. She feels attracted to take care of kids who are also innocent and vulnerable and are in need of lots of affection. Her heart is big enough to love animals and humans alike. She also enjoys reading and practicing martial arts.

Donations will someday help her build her dream sanctuary or afford to rent and open a local rescue. Sometimes it’s very hard for Angels With Me to have enough funds to buy food and other needs for the dogs/cats while waiting for a good adoptive parent. Karina is asking for your help to save furry angels that can make a difference in the lives of people in distress, war veterans, children, etc. We want to thank you in advance for your generous donation.
