Jax was 8 1/2 years old when we placed him. His previous owner was very involved in the placement process and had final approval of the home that Jax went to.

Before ruling out a dog because it's older, you should hear from Jax's new family.  Jax runs circles around everyone - including around their other, much younger, wire!  An 8 or 9 year old wire is not old in spirit or ability.

Jax's new family would be happy to talk to you about what a joy and how energetic an older dog can be!  If you'd like more information, contact me and I will refer your questions to them.
