About Jag

Meet Jag, a sociable 4-year-old neutered male Yorkshire Terrier. He arrived at the shelter as a stray alongside another dog that he is compatible with, but they don't have to be adopted together. Jag has a friendly demeanor, greeting almost everyone with gentle body language and an excited wagging tail. Although he gets along well with his canine companion, we don’t have any history of him in a home with children or cats. A home with another dog might be a great fit, especially after a meet ‘n greet at the shelter. Additionally, every dog adoption comes with a $200 training voucher through the 'Pawsitivity Bucks' program to help build a strong connection between newly adopted pups and their owners. If you're interested in meeting Jag, remember that meet-and-greets end at 4:30 PM each day, so arrive early to ensure you have time to get to know him. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
