Hello! I'm Jake, a 5-year-old Boxer mix. I am told that I'm such a good boy, and a sweetheart. I enjoy relaxing at your feet at the end of the day, which is nice on these cold, winter nights. I get along with other dogs great, especially when we run around outside in the snow. I do laps around the yard as fast as I can! I settle down really well, and don't like to make much of a ruckus. Cats don't bother me, and I don't bother them. I'm very good at sharing, and I already know some basic commands! I do like to sleep in bed with you, but I curl up on a dog bed like a good boy if you don't want to share the bed.

I was supposed to be picked up by another rescue, but at the last minute, they couldn't take me. The only other option I had was to go back on death row, but Last Day Dog Rescue saved me! I spent some time at Camp, and now I'm in a foster home with two dogs, two cats, and a 15-month-old toddler. I really like her, and I'm extremely gentle around her. She likes to give me tummy rubs, and I give her lots of kisses. I don't like people wearing hats, but other than that, I get along with everyone!

I'm such a well-mannered, quiet boy. Give me a chance at a forever home, and I will love you forever.

2/1/11 Update: Jake is such a sweetie. He thinks he's a lap dog, and will get your attention when he wants to be pet. He definitely loves the snow, especially eating it while running around the yard. He just learned to catch a cookie in mid-air :) He's patient and will sit nicely and wait for his food to be put down. He is separated from my resident dogs during mealtimes because he eats faster and tries to steal their food. He would do best in a home with a female playmate and a yard to run around in.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
