Story
Meet Dax! 🐾 Just look at that face! Dax has a big, happy smile, bright expressive eyes, and the cutest little eyebrows that give him a slightly goofy and very lovable look. He is one of the sweetest, most easygoing dogs you will ever meet. He wakes up every day with his tail wagging, ready for cuddles or simply being by your side. Dax has an easy, joyful energy that makes him a pleasure to be around. He is the perfect blend of playful and mellow. He is always up for a walk or an adventure, but he is just as happy to nap quietly at your feet. Dax is potty trained, crate trained, walks nicely on a leash, rarely barks, and does not chew. He knows his basic commands and genuinely tries to make his person happy. He is good with people of all ages, including children, and he gets along well with dogs and cats. He truly does not have a mean bone in his body. Dax’s past is sad, but he has come such a long way. He was found tied to a fence in over 100-degree heat after being abandoned by a breeder. Animal Control eventually picked him up after who knows how many days out there alone. Our rescue group pulled him from the San Bernardino shelter just before he was scheduled to be euthanized. Despite everything he has been through, he remains incredibly sweet, trusting, and full of love. Dax is a Puggle, about 1 year and 2 months old, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations and flea and tick treatments. He is healthy, happy, and ready for a forever home. If you are looking for a loving, fun, well-behaved dog who brings happiness everywhere he goes, Dax might be the perfect fit. ❤️ Please call or text A Ticket To Happiness Rescue (949) 331-6299 if you would like to meet him. Here are some of Dax's videos.
