Meet Jazz! Jazz is a 5 year old ex-sled dog with a sweet personality who is more ready than ever to find his forever home after years old sled pulling and 164 days in foster care (as of September 4, 2024). Jazz was rescued, along with over 30 other sled dogs, from a tourist sled dog kennel where he lived on a 4 foot chain when not pulling people. Jazz is medium-sized with a playful and affectionate personality. He has the most beautiful eyes that have both brown and blue, giving him a really unique look that always catches people's eyes. He is definitely on the quite side, not often making a lot of noise. Jazz loves to go on walks, but still thinks he has to pull when out in front, so he will need guidance when it comes to his leash work. He's getting better every day! With proper care and the right leash or harness, he will do great. He is crate trained and goes in his crate with no issues. Jazz is also housetrained and learning basic commands well, in both English and French. Like many of the sleddies from this rescue, he is still a little hesitant to trust, especially men, but will open up after time with somebody who loves him and shows him care and patience. Jazz is friendly and social with other dogs, especially females. He is gentle and good with children, and but has not yet met any cats. Jazz’s ideal home would have a confident female canine companion and an active family or individual that can provide him with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He would love to have a fenced in yard that he can run and play until he feels safe and secure.

 

Jazz is neutered, up to date on all relevant vaccines, dewormed, and microchipped.
