About Jockey

Jockey is the biggest pup of the Kentucky Derby litter and probably the boldest, too. He’s never far from his siblings, diving headfirst into playtime and reveling in every ounce of attention from people. Jockey, like his littermates, is a German Shepherd/Lab mix and has all the bouncy, infectious energy you expect in a baby puppy. His curious nature and soft, medium black and tan coat make him a standout among his busy brothers and sisters. At just three months old, Jockey is open-hearted and full of those wobbly zoomies that turn heads and melt hearts. He’s already demonstrating his playful, affectionate personality and will thrive in a home ready to guide a puppy through all the stages—chewing, potty training, learning the ropes, and everything in between. Jockey gets along with other dogs and children, and he’s looking for a family that will provide structure, boundaries, and plenty of love as he grows. He’s not house trained yet, but with patience and consistency, he’ll catch on. Born February 27, Jockey is a Pisces—known for being both lively and loving. He is up to date on his vaccinations, and his adoption fee covers even more vetting to be completed through Life House Animal Refuge and Rehabilitation.
