Jay's Story

Meet Jay!<br/><br/>Jay is ready to be your best friend. He is estimated to be between 8-10 years old which seems old for a malamute but you would not know it when you meet this guy. He is 128lbs of glorious love and fluff- yes, yes he's on a diet. <br/><br/>He has been a fan of every big dog he has met so if you have a resident that needs a buddy this is your boy. He also adores car rides as long as you give him a boost up and keep the window down for optimal sniffs. Those old hips feel every bit of that 128lbs so a ramp or some stairs into the car would be his best friend. <br/><br/>While Jay does not have trouble with stairs it would be preferred since he is an older gentleman that his forever home does not have a ton of stairs to come and go. One of Jay's favorite hobbies is sitting outside with a chewy bone and enjoying the cooler weather. He could sit out there for hours if you would let him. <br/><br/>Someone that enjoys being at home more often than not would be ideal for him as well. He is a social butterfly and has never heard of the word "stranger'. In fact, if he does not know you that means he might be able to con you out of a treat if you have something tasty! <br/><br/>While we have not had him around children we think he would do just fine with kids over 12+ only due to his hips being painful. <br/><br/>So, a couple of things to remember about Jay:<br/>• Social butterfly<br/>• Bigger dogs over 40lbs are the bees knees- pip squeaks and kitties should move along- they will hate Jay<br/>• Car rides are pretty cool<br/>• Treats are a necessity not a 'special occasion' thing- all days are a special occasion to Jay<br/>• Must have stuffed squeaky toys for Jay to De-stuff<br/>• Fewer to no stairs in the home<br/>• Fenced yard preferred but not required <br/>• In NC- can travel anywhere that BFDR does<br/><br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting this dog, please apply online, at https://bigfluffydogs.com/dog-adoption/ then email katrina@bigfluffydogs.com. <br/>Our main website, www.bigfluffydogs.com has more information about us and the rescue process.<br/><br/>NOTE TO EMAILERS FROM PETFINDER: WE DO NOT RESPOND TO EMAIL INQUIRIES WITHOUT AN APPLICATION.
