Jax is an 8-year-old golden boy looking for a fresh start! Jax came to us when his previous owners moved and could no longer keep him. Shortly after his arrival, our medical team determined Jax had a torn CCL, which required surgery to repair. Thankfully, Jax has already undergone surgery and is doing well. He was placed in a loving foster home to help him with his recovery, and now that he's back with us, he's having a hard time adjusting to shelter life. We know this sweet guy would thrive in a home; he truly just wants out of here! His foster mom shared that Jax is a sweet and loving boy with a heart full of affection and lots of personality! Jax is highly food-motivated, which makes him a quick learner and easy to train. He already knows how to sit, give a paw, and stay, and takes his medications without any trouble when given a little wet food on top. Jax is great with all humans; even if he reacts at first, he quickly overcomes his fear and turns into a big lovebug. He's very tolerant of children, their noises, and all the activity that comes with a busy household, making him a perfect family companion. Curious and engaged, Jax loves to see what's going on around him and enjoys being part of the action. This affectionate boy also loves his toys, goes into his crate without any issues at night, and is fully potty trained. Jax has been recovering from leg surgery over the past couple of weeks, showing patience and resilience along the way. It's clear he comes from a loving home, and he's ready to return that love tenfold to the right family.
