Max is a cute little guy who came to us at only three months of age because of a family member’s allergies to dogs. The surrendering family had Max for only a week and had purchased him from a pet store. As is typical for pet store dogs, Max had some medical issues that needed to be addressed, and rounds of vaccinations were upcoming with neutering in his future. An adoptive couple were excited to get this boy and scooped him up for his trip home to meet his new sibling, Kula. He has been renamed Jax. Here is the latest on Jax:

About mid-June, we received a phone call from AGR telling us that there was a three-month-old puppy available immediately if we were up for it. Not expecting such a young tot, we jumped into action and “puppy-proofed” our house, and that evening welcomed Max (now Jaxon or Jax) into our home. He is now a rambunctious six-month-old teenager, very verbal, and with energy to spare. He enjoys long walks, challenging and/or playing with his much older Golden brother, Kula (also a rescue, a long time ago), and having the occasional run-around with his sibling cats. He has not yet been persuaded to become a swimmer, which is unfortunate because it would be a great way to burn off some of his surplus energy. We will keep trying!

Sounds like Jax is giving his family a run for their money!
