Jax's Story

Some dogs deserve a second chance more than most, and Jax is one of them. This handsome 10 year old pittie was originally requested to be surrendered, only to be found abandoned a few weeks later. Despite being let down by the people he trusted, Jax hasn't let it dim his gentle spirit.<br/><br/>He's the definition of a gentleman. Calm, well mannered, and polite, Jax loves spending time with people and is happiest soaking up attention and companionship. Whether you're looking for a laid back walking buddy or a couch companion to binge your favorite shows with, Jax is ready to fill that role with a wagging tail. The only thing he asks is to be the only pet in the home.<br/><br/>His past doesn't define him. Jax is ready for a family that will finally give him the love and security he's always deserved. ❤️<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/> Primary Color: Tri Color Secondary Color: Tri Color Weight: 61lbs Age: 10yrs 1mths 2wks Animal has been Neutered

Richmond Animal Care and Control's Adoption Policy
At RACC, our focus is on same-day adoptions. Anyone interested in adopting an animal, along with all household members, must visit the shelter in person to meet and interact with the animal(s). During the visit, RACC staff will ask a series of questions to determine if the animal(s) would be a good fit. Once an appropriate match is made, the prospective adopter will need to complete an adoption application, which will be reviewed and approved or denied immediately. For dog adoptions, any resident dogs must also attend the meet-and-greet. Kittens 4 months or younger must be adopted in pairs or have another cat at home to ensure proper socialization and prevent Single Kitten Syndrome. Adoption fees cover the cost of spay/neuter surgery, flea/tick prevention, age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, heartworm testing (for dogs 6 months and older), and FeLV/FIV testing (for cats). Adoption fees: - $100 adoption fee for dogs, puppies 5 months or older, cats, and kittens - $150 adoption fee for puppies 4 months or younger - Cats and kittens may be adopted two for the price of one - Adoption fees may be waived for medical or space reasons at management discretion
