Jackson- adoption pending Chow Chow Mix Manhattan, KS

Jackson is a mellow, friendly chow mix. He is estimated at around 8 years old and is 65 lbs. Jackson puts on weight easily and has trouble losing it again due to a condition called cushings. Jackson's cushings is well controlled with monthly medications. Jackson is a great dog who loves humans and has never met a stranger. He would not be the best fit for a family with very young kids but would do just great with dog savvy kids 12 and up. He loves to be petted and brushed, especially in the spring/summer when he loses his thick winter coat. Jackson loves cats and is comfortable around other dogs once he gets to know them.

He'll play fetch and carry his favorite plushies around the house. Jackson is a big couch potato and loves his indoor life after spending a lot of his life outdoors. He is GREAT indoors, potty trained and not destructive. Jackson does not care for crates but can be left in his own room while you're away if you prefer. Jackson will go walkabout if let off leash and does need to be walked with a harness. He still loves to go for walks with his people or spend time sniffing things in the backyard. Jackson recently lost an eye but he says he's still pretty handsome, for a cyclops. His remaining eye is healthy. If you are interested in Jackson please don't hesitate to contact us. This boy deserves a great home.
