About Jax

Meet Jax, a delightful 15-month-old Lab mix weighing about 53 pounds. This sweet boy is neutered, vaccinated, and both house- and crate-trained. Jax's previous owner is looking for a new home for him due to medical challenges in the family. Jax is calm and quiet, thriving when he's near his people. He enjoys meals, cozy naps, and loves to play fetch. While he’s generally observant and may bark to alert you when someone arrives, he’s a gentle companion overall. Jax has spent quality time with family and kids, and while he has limited experience with other dogs, he did stay with a sitter alongside them. It's best to introduce him to any new dogs thoughtfully. He can get a bit excited on the leash when heading out for walks, so consistent leash training will help him harness that energy. Currently, Jax is enrolled in Banfield's Wellness Program, which covers his care through 2026 with an option to renew. If you’re looking for a loving, easygoing companion, Jax could be just the friend for you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
