Javi is a black, large mixed-breed (German Shepherd and Pit Bull Terrier) male, estimated to be 1 year and 7 months old, currently located in Chehalis, WA. He is already neutered, vaccinated, and appears housetrained. Javi is strong and energetic, and is best suited for a home without other animals, or potentially with a submissive young dog after proper introduction.

About Javi

Javi came in as a stray, and though no one stepped up to claim him, he's shown a lot of heart. He grows attached once he settles in but does need some patience at first—underneath his guard, he's incredibly affectionate. Javi is estimated to be between 1 and 2 years old and is likely a German Shepherd and Pit mix, coming in around 80 lbs of strength and muscle. His size and energy are a presence on leash, and he'll definitely need ongoing work on polite walking—he's a serious puller. Around the shelter, he's picked up most basic commands and appears to be housetrained. Javi hasn't meshed well with the adult dogs he's met here, although he did alright with puppies in brief encounters. Cats are an unknown. The best match for Javi would be a home as an only animal, though with the right gradual introduction he might adjust to a submissive young dog. He needs older kids—12 and up—who can respect his boundaries and match his energy. He’s already neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped. Born October 2, Javi is a Libra—the diplomat of the zodiac, even if his play skills are still a work in progress. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
