Meet Jackson! At 14 years young, Jackson the Silky Terrier is a confident little gentleman who knows exactly what he likes in life-and that's the simple, cozy things. Jackson is the definition of a loyal companion. He absolutely adores his people and is happiest when he's close by, whether that's curled up in bed (preferably under the covers!) or sitting in a sunny window, patiently watching for his humans to come home. He's not interested in toys or chaos-he's all about love, comfort, and companionship. Despite his age, Jackson is a friendly and social guy who gets along beautifully with dogs, cats, kids, and even strangers. When he first enters a new environment, his curious side shines through as he explores, but once he settles in, he's more than content to relax and enjoy the quiet life. As a senior pup, Jackson does have some typical "old man" quirks. His hearing is mostly gone, his vision isn't what it used to be, and his back legs can be a bit stiff-but none of that stops him from enjoying his days. He is potty trained, though he may need a little patience as he adjusts to a new home and can sometimes mark in unfamiliar spaces. Jackson came to us when his family fell on hard times, and while that kind of change is never easy, he's ready to give his whole heart to someone new. If you're looking for a sweet, low-key companion who will happily share your bed, your quiet moments, and all the love he has to give, Jackson might just be your perfect match. If you would like to meet Jackson, please submit an application for him on our website https://www.friendsofmichigan.org/adoptable-dogs. He is neutered, up to date on all age appropriate vaccines, heartworm negative, microchipped, and on monthly flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. His adoption fee is $275, which helps cover the cost of the medical care he has received. **Please note that the breed listed for each of our dogs is a rough estimate unless DNA results are provided in their Bio. All strays have rough estimates of their age based on the condition of their teeth. Each dog is different, so each adoption is different. Our adoption process might require multiple visits to the shelter before our dogs can go home. Or they may be ready on the first visit. It really depends on the individual dog and the potential adopters. Once we receive your application, the Dog Staff will contact you to discuss meeting our dogs.
