About Slow Jamz

Meet Slow Jamz! This lively dog was found as a stray and is eager to find his forever home. Currently, he's living in a pop-up crate due to full capacity at the shelter, but he’s ready to jump back into life and find his groove with you. Slow Jamz is a social and enthusiastic guy who enjoys exploring his surroundings and leaning in for some good attention. He has a lot of energy and loves to be on the go with his humans. He would thrive in an active home where daily walks and fun adventures are a norm. Slow Jamz needs mental stimulation too, so long-lasting chews, food puzzles, and games like hide and seek would be right up his alley! Training with positive reinforcement will help him learn to greet people politely and pick up new skills. While Slow Jamz's history with other pets is unknown since he couldn’t complete his dog assessment, slow and thoughtful introductions will be key if you have other furry friends. A home without children under 5 is best for him because he can get bouncy during greetings; an adult household will help him practice calmer interactions. This handsome guy is excited about meeting people but may jump up in his enthusiasm. He takes treats eagerly, so focusing on gentle behavior is important. With love and patience, Slow Jamz is all set to find a happy new rhythm in a loving home! Click apply to start the adoption process.
