About Jake

Meet Jake, a wonderful big boy ready to find his forever home. He came to us after having a little too much enthusiasm for chicken—let’s just say, it was the live kind!

At around 85+ lbs, Jake is a solid companion, boasting a striking black and brindle medium coat. He’s approximately three years old and lives for all the love and attention you can give him.
