Jaxson

Hi Tracey and Kirin! Jax is doing really well. In the last month we've sold the house and are now living in a very pet friendly apartment which has a large dog park across the street. He's even made several fur friends both at the park and the fur babies our friends have. He made a lover out of Lola a rescue Pit/Rot who typically is a bit skittish around new people and animals. She belongs to our friends Jake and Lindsay. We're still a bit mouthy and tend to nibble on people when we shouldn't. Since November I've purchased a TON of toys, they don't last long. I have found one that works, you just need the industrial nibbler strength. We do daily walks with him even when it's cold. In better weather we have an awesome trail which Brett takes him for runs on. He REALLY LOVES to do runs with Brett. He's a really fast runner, Lola couldn't keep up with him at the dog park and ended up pulling a hammy trying to. Imagine a spotted cow colored dog who weighs 65 lbs. having to be carried around like she's a baby for several days. Lindsay told me the next day she got stuck under their bed that night and they had to pull the whole bed apart at 2 AM. He's a total showoff around people but I think there is a bit of anxiety about it as he does become more mouthy the more people you have. I've learned when it's just me and Jax he's the sweetest thing in the whole world, you add someone else and he's likely to start getting up in their face, licks a lot, nibbles, or jumps/walks all over them. He has a few spots in the apartment which are Jaxie spots and this helps settle him. Oh yes, we call him Jax but we also call him Jaxie, Captain Jax Sparrow and when he upsets Daddy he refers to him as Private Jax. Talking about getting along with everyone, we had two couple friends over for New Years. Jax was a great sport as he allowed us to dress him up but he seemed a bit embarrassed. I've attached my favorite picture. Brett had to work so when I sent him the pic he told me I needed to stop abusing the kid (lol). Thanks for checking up on him. He's been an amazing fur baby and I'm really glad we were given the opportunity to adopt him! Cheers to pet hair and doggy kisses, Kira, Brett, and Jax
