Arrival Story:
"Thanks to Petfinder.com.....Jackson went home!!! LIterally, his old owner found him by seeing him as a featured pet on the Pet Adoption League's home page, and came and took him home. This is a crazy story! Carla adopted Max the summer of 2001. He was just a baby 8 weeks old. He was always such a great dog. Her and her boyfriend had broken up and Max stayed with the ex-boyfriend. unknown to Carla, Max got loose and was lost for over a year. One day Carla was just browsing the Internet and a picture pops up if her Max. He was the featured pet on the Pet Adoption League web site. She called the shelter. The director waited after hours for her to come pick him up and bring him back home. He is doing great. Carla says she doesn't think Max or her could be any happier that he was their featured pet." Jackson's story: Jackson was found as a stray in the Yukon, PA area. We think he has some Aita in him along with possibly some Lab or Aussie. Jackson is a lovable and handsome fellow who likes lots and lots of hugs. He has one brown eye and one blue eye, which gives him a distinctive appearance. He is between 2-3 years old. Jackson would do best in an adult home or one with older kids. He loves attention and loves to take walks. He is house trained. He has been neuterd and is up-to-date on all his shots.

Bio:
Jackson is a big baby. He can be a little intimidating at first, but he just wants attention. He loves to be petted and brushed. He loves to go for walks. He is learning heel, sit and stay on walks. He is okay on a leash, but does better with a harness. He is a very smart dog, and I believe he could be a very obedient and loyal dog to anyone who spends a little time with him. He doesn't get along with all dogs, but he is mostly okay. He has been to White Oak park several times to run in the off-leash area. No problems at all. He ran wtih the other dogs and greeted the people with a freindly nudge. He was very well-behaved and content in the car for the half-hour ride to the park and home again. Very well-behaved, and obedient dog. Mostly calm and gentle. He looks a little rough sometimes behind the doors of a cage, but he's really not.

Hey, I'm a fun guy. So, I don't like cats....oh well! What good are cats anyway? Who needs them? I know I don't! I like other dogs, and people, and kids. I like to run and play. I like to go for walks. So, I don't like cats. Is that a big deal? Not to me. So, all you cat-haters out there....please get my back, man!

 

hello!

my kennel mate got adopted yesterday. Faith, honey, I hope you have a good life, and I'm gonna miss you so much! You were the best roommate. You shared your blankets and your toys, and didn't poop and pee all over the place. You were the best. I don't know what I'm gonna do now. I don't really like anyone else here. Maybe Lucia, but I'm not sure. I want a home, is what i really want. Ya know, I think I've been here almost a year. Wow...that's a long time. Maybe I belong here....I don't know. It's not that bad, but I hear that if you get adopted, that you get to go for walks almost every day, and sometimes get to sleep in a bed...I'm looking forward to that.

Hi there, I'm Jackson...I'm a pretty cool looking dog. I have two different colored eyes. My right eye is blue and my left is brown. I think I look funny, but people tell my I’m gorgeous, My fur is very thick, like an Akita. I have multiple layers of fur, in several beautiful ranges of colors. I have yellow, and black and brown. I’m a pretty good dog. I get excited like any dog would, when people come to the shelter. I hate being behind this gate, and having everyone walk past me and say, “oh look at this dog’s eyes”…and then just keep on walking. Oh that just makes me mad. Then I bark and growl and snarl at them. I’m just blowing off steam, really. If they would just take a minute or two, and have one of the volunteers take me out of the cage, I’d be so lovable and cute, you wouldn’t believe I’m the same dog that looked like I wanted to rip your face off from behind the gate. Really, trust me…give me a chance. I can be a lap dog if you want me to be, and just lounge around all day and watch TV. I can also spend a lot of time outdoors with you, playing in the snow, or hiking. I have this really warm coat, ya know. So, anyway, I’m here…come see me, or call. I go to White Oak dog park sometimes, so I can even meet you there if you want.
Please come and meet me in person...I am really a cool dog.
Oh, speaking of cool, there is this new website called www.zootoo.com and you can sign up and earn points for your favorite animal shelter to win a really cool new shelter. The Pet Adoption League, in Yukon, PA, which is where I live, isn’t a very nice place. It’s alright, and they keep it pretty clean, but everything is so old. The guy there, Tom, is constantly repairing old doors and windows, and drain pipes. We would love to have a brand new shelter. I hope I don’t have to stay here too much longer, but I do have a lot of really good friends here, and I’d like to see them get a cool new Crib. Please sign up and do everything you can to get us points for the ZooToo house contest. GO to www.zootoo.com today….Please!!!
