Jax

This is Jax, and he's hurting in a way dogs can't explain.<br/><br/>Jax is an older guy who lost the only home he ever knew when his owner passed away. One day he had a person, a routine, and a place where he belonged... and the next, he was here. He didn't do anything wrong. His world just disappeared.<br/><br/>Even now, Jax still has so much life in him. He's surprisingly energetic for his age, a little spunky, a little quirky, and full of personality. He seems to enjoy other dogs and does well with kids, and you can tell he wants connection -- he just doesn't know how to ask for it yet.<br/><br/>Jax also tested positive for heartworm, but the good news is he's almost finished with treatment. He's been so brave through it all, quietly enduring vet visits and rest when he didn't understand why his life had changed so drastically.<br/><br/>Older dogs like Jax are often overlooked. They wait longer. They watch people walk past. But Jax isn't done living or loving. He just needs someone willing to open their heart to a dog who's already lost everything once.<br/><br/>If you have room in your home -- and your heart -- Jax is waiting. He deserves a soft place to land and a second chance at forever. 🖤🐾More information? Call Marion Area Humane Society at 740-389-6548 or email at manager@mahspets.org
