Jackson's Story

ABOUT JACKSON<br/>Jackson is a 2-year-old active boy, affectionately known as "Jaxy" by the staff and volunteers. This handsome pup came to HAP after his previous owner could no longer care for him. Understandably, after being surrendered, he is sometimes unsure who to trust and may take some time to warm up. Once he's comfortable, Jaxy is a sweet and loving boy who adores his people! He enjoys being outdoors and loves running around our barnyard, taking in all the exciting sights and smells. He's very treat-motivated, loves back scratches, and has a blast rolling around with his toys. Jaxy already knows "sit" and "paw," and he's currently working on his leash manners. Jackson has participated in our Doggy day Out program too! Here's what our volunteers had to say about him: <br/><br/>"Today I took Jackson out and he did really well! We went on a long walk around my neighborhood, which he enjoyed and it tired him out. After that, we stopped at McDonald's for a happy meal then sat in the car at battery park to people watch (which he also enjoyed). Even though I got him his own happy meal, he decided that wasn't enough and ate my food as well. The only time Jackson seemed to get worked up is when we were cuddling and a squirrel had the audacity to run by a tree that was way across the field, but don't worry Jackson scared it off so we were safe once again! He definitely enjoys people watching from afar as opposed to being in the middle of all of the commotion. Jackson is the sweetest boy ever and I absolutely adore him, hopefully this silly boy can find his perfect home!" - Erica<br/><br/>"We went for a 2.5 mile walk and hung out at the house. He was great in the car, but is dramatic in every sense of the word outside of the vehicle. On the walk, goofy boy wants to chase every bird and squirrel. He could benefit with some leash work with distractions to work on pulling and reactivity to other animals. At home he was rolling around everywhere, and I mean EVERYWHERE. He was hilarious, swimming in a dog bed. He knew some commands like paw, sit, down. He definitely has that playful puppy energy. He loves butt scratches and will just fall into you to get them - DRAMATIC. All in all he was super sweet, super goofy, and super strong. I hope he will find a home, I do feel like he will be a great dog for someone." - Taylor<br/><br/>*Jackson is seeking a home as your only pet!<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
