A little about them

Jack is a sweet, people-loving 2-year-old Australian Shepherd mix who enjoys attention, fetch, tug-of-war, and spending time with other dogs.

Ideal Home

Jack would thrive with an active family that can provide plenty of attention and activity. He is thought to do well with children and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. Because he can be a runner, his forever home must have a secure 6-foot fence.

Ongoing Health

Jack is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped. He successfully completed heartworm treatment and received a ProHeart 12 injection. Jack has diabetes and requires insulin injections twice daily, consistent meal and insulin schedules, and lifelong veterinary care. His insulin currently costs approximately $79.99 per vial, with each vial lasting about 4–6 weeks at his current dosage. A repeat glucose curve is needed in December 2026.

Training & Support

Jack is smart, active, and playful. He handles his insulin injections very well. Because of his diabetes, he may occasionally have an accident in his kennel.

Application Details

  • Jack's adoption fee is waived for an exceptional adopter, allowing those funds to support his insulin and ongoing medical care.
  • Applications start by contacting the provider through Wags.
