My story

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

Jax may be a little shy when you first meet him, but it doesn’t take long for his true personality to shine. Once he opens up, he blossoms into one of the sweetest, calmest dogs you’ll ever meet.

He’s an easygoing, affectionate companion who just wants to be near his people. Whether you’re going for a quiet walk or curling up on the couch, Jax is the kind of dog who’s simply happy to be by your side.

He’s a true sweetheart who would thrive in a calm, loving home — either as a foster or forever friend. If you're looking for a loyal, low-maintenance companion with a heart of gold, Jax is your guy.

Come by and meet him today if you're ready to fall hard in love! 💖
