Jax

Meet this friendly chap Jax! Jax is a friendly and affectionate boy who absolutely loves attention and enjoys a good fuss.  He has a wonderful nature and is always happy to spend time with his people. This clever lad is exceptionally well behaved at the vets, taking examinations and handling in his stride, which is a testament to his temperament and trainability.  Like many dogs, he has his own little quirks – one of his favourites is enthusiastically ragging his blankets and rearranging them to his liking! As a typical Belgian Malinois, he is highly intelligent, energetic and thrives on both physical exercise and mental stimulation.  He loves charging around our compound and would be happiest in a home where he has plenty of opportunities to stay active and engaged.  Jax is very ball focused which is a bonus when it comes to training. Because of his breed traits, he will need an owner who has previous experience with Belgian Malinois and understands their needs.  He is not a dog that will be content with a short walk around the block, he requires ongoing training, enrichment and a lifestyle that allows him to use both his body and brain.  He will need a private secure garden. We feel that it would be best for Jax to be rehomed with adults only. Jax is a typical Mali so likes to be vocal around other dogs, he is easily distracted with toys but we feel like he would be best suited to being the only dog in the home so he can have his own space and the focus on him. No cats or small furries for Jax due to having a very high prey drive. We would recommend not having any cats within your area. Please do not apply for a dog if you have a holiday within the next 3 months. *Applicants that are successful will be provided with further information on each dog to the best of the charity’s knowledge
