Jackson

At a whopping 118lbs, Jackson has a whole lot of love to offer! Don’t worry, he walks well on leash despite his strength – he’s a gentle giant! Here at the shelter, Jackson has been receptive to meeting other dogs and may enjoy sharing a home with another dog (though he never has previously); If you have a resident canine, we recommend bringing them to meet Jackson to help ensure compatibility. Though he has not shared a home with children, we’re told Jackson has appreciated attention from kids in the past. Jackson has been diagnosed with a condition called hypothyroidism, which means he’ll need just a little extra TLC to live a long, happy life. An adopter should be prepared to dose Jackson with medicine daily and complete bloodwork in the future. If you have room for a very sweet, very gentle, very big boy, come by and get to know Jackson!<br/><br/>This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It’s a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested?
