Name: Jackson (or "Jacks" for short)
Age: 14 months
Breed: Border Collie / English Pointer Mix
Personality: Jackson is an incredibly lovable and sweet young pup who's ready to become a cherished member of your family. He's full of youthful energy and still has some endearing puppy-like qualities that will bring joy to your home.
Description: Jackson is a handsome pup who weighs approximately 70 pounds. He's housebroken, up to date on all his shots, has been neutered, and is ready to find his forever home. Right now. Jacks is currently living in a foster home, socializing with another dog.
Background: Jackson's journey started when he was adopted at just 4 months old by a loving family. Unfortunately, due to personal medical difficulties, they had to surrender him. Now, Jackson is with our rescue and eagerly awaiting a new family to call his own.
Interests: Jackson loves attention and has a special fondness for chasing after a ball. He's also a great companion on car rides and is in the process of discovering the joys of water, potentially becoming a future pool swimmer or boat enthusiast. Jackson also has done 1:1 training with a professional dog trainer to learn how to channel his energy and is making progress with basic everyday commands.
Social Nature: He is very dog-friendly and adores both kids and adults alike.
Ideal Home: We envision Jackson's ideal home to have the following qualities:
* A large fenced backyard for him to play and explore.
* A family that can give him the attention and dedicated playtime he craves.
* Regular walks and continued socialization to help him grow and thrive.
* Humans who can guide him with leash training.
* A family that's willing to reinforce his basic commands like sit and stay.
* Ideally another dog in the home to be a playmate with Jackson
Meet & Greets: Prospective adopters will need to participate in meet and greets with other dogs and kids as part of the adoption process.
