Meet Jax

Jax is a 6-year-old, 11-pound poodle who has been bounced around far too much in his life. Now that he’s with our rescue, we want to show him that life can finally be safe, secure and predictable. Jax is currently in board and train with our amazing behaviorist, and one thing is very clear: Jax WANTS a leader — and he thrives when he has one. He needs a calm, confident adopter who can provide structure, consistency and clear boundaries. Our behaviorist will provide a specific protocol to follow, so his foster won’t be figuring this out alone. Jax doesn’t need someone to feel sorry for him. He needs someone who can make him feel secure enough to finally relax. Someone who can tell him: “You don’t have to be in charge anymore. I’ve got you.” Jax has been passed around enough. Let’s help him find the person who can finally give him the stability he’s been looking for. Adoption fee is $450 and comes with one paid personal training session to get you set up for success with Jax. applications can be found at www.secondleashonlife.orgPlease share.
