About Axol

Axol is a five-year-old Black Labrador Retriever mix with a lively and affectionate streak. Born November 28 (a fun Sagittarius detail – he's likely adventurous at heart), Axol thrives in a calm home where he can enjoy both play and downtime. He's eager to please and picks up on commands quickly, knowing sit, stay, shake, and even how to 'speak.' Meeting new people excites him; he will light up at an introduction and is always ready for a backyard game of fetch or tag. Axol loves showing off his 'dancing' for treats, and if you say, "I'm gonna get it," he'll take off with his toy and invite you to join the chase. Despite his bursts of energy, quiet evenings are his favorite, especially if there's a warm lap, soft pillow, and blanket waiting. He dreams and 'runs' in his sleep, making for sweet nighttime company. Grooming and dress-up are no problem—he’s easygoing, even sporting shoes or a sweater without fuss. He gets along well with children and has lived with cats, but he does not get along with other dogs, particularly around food. Axol is house trained, neutered, and up to date on his vaccinations. He needs someone committed to his well-being after a change in his previous family’s circumstances. He’s the kind of companion who will leave a mark on your heart, just as he did on his last family.
