About Jax
Weighing in at 12kg's Jax is little in size but big in personality!
Full of character, this little guy is a true pocket rocket!
He's driven, smart and extremely affectionate
His energy is contagious, in the right home he will flourish if given an outlet for his smarts.
Being a mix of both a Border collie intelligence and that chihuahua spunk, he'll keep you on your toes but shower you with love and loyalty.
He could go to a home with the dog that matches his personality, he shows playful behaviours but also a little awkward and unsure.
Jax would prefer to go to a female owner. He would also prefer no young kids
Jax is untested with cats
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
