Meet Dax, the 6-month-old pointer mix who is the embodiment of sweetness and charm! 🌟 This lovable pup already knows how to behave like a true gentleman, making him one of those rare young dogs with wonderful manners and a heart as soft as a marshmallow. It's as if Dax has already been part of a loving family and is simply waiting to reunite with one. ❤️ Dax made his grand entrance into the world of pet adoption when he transferred from a small shelter in Oklahoma to AHeinz, and he’s settling into his foster home beautifully! With three resident dogs by his side, he’s proving to be a wonderful friend, showing kindness even to the tiny 10-pound Chihuahua! Talk about a gentle spirit! 🐕 He currently tips the scales at around 35 pounds and could use a little more muscle, but he's perfectly poised for adventure outdoors — without being overwhelming inside. But Dax doesn't just want to be an outdoor buddy; he craves closeness with his human companions. He's the kind of pup who loves to check in, ensuring you feel his affectionate presence without ever being pushy. When it’s time to unwind, he will quietly keep you company while enjoying a Kong or a chewy bone at your feet — completely respectful of your personal space. Can you say “dream dog”? 😍 Possessing the most delightful characteristics, Dax would make an incredible family dog. He’s: 💛 Affectionate and dedicated to people 🐶 Excellent with other furry friends 👶 Gentle and wonderful, making him a fantastic fit for homes with children 🦮 Leash-trained and already demonstrating some basic commands 🧠 Thoughtful and calm for a pup his age, suggesting he's had prior training. This pup is blessedly free from the wild, jumpy behaviors typical of many young dogs; instead, he's a steady presence, making it easy for everyone to fall head over heels in love with him! 💕 Before adoption, Dax will be neutered and fully vaccinated, ensuring he's the healthiest pup he can be. Dax’s foster mom just brought him home today, so they are still discovering his habits — including house-training — and more updates will come as he settles into this new chapter of his life. If you’re looking for a young dog who is an ideal mix of loving, gentle, playful, and easy to have around, look no further. Dax may just be your perfect match! 🐾💛 To bring Dax into your family, make sure to apply through the Buddy App!
