About Stax

Meet Stax! He's a charming 4-year-old, 86lb bundle of love who truly makes a house feel like a home. Stax is the kind of dog who wants to be part of everything you do, from supervising kitchen activities to enjoying an afternoon nap. He has an expressive face, a contagious smile, and a goofy streak that will keep you entertained. He loves de-stuffing toys and going for zoomies in the backyard!

Stax has been living in foster homes and has shown he can easily settle into a routine. He is house-trained, sleeps soundly through the night, and is a great car rider. He's happy to relax while you work or do chores. He's also a bright boy who is eager to learn; he learned "shake" in just a few minutes and loves earning tasty rewards! Whether you're off on an adventure or enjoying a quiet evening, Stax is happiest when he's by your side.

Stax has been waiting for his forever family and has made many wonderful connections in his foster homes. He has lived with respectful children and enjoys receiving affection. He has a warm personality that charms everyone he meets. With patient introductions to new experiences, Stax's true nature shines through – he is loyal, affectionate, funny, and endlessly endearing.

If you're searching for a best friend who will make you laugh, join you on adventures, and then happily snuggle up nearby, Stax is ready to be that dog for you!
