Get ready to meet your new best friend—Jager is here to steal your heart and make a splash in your life! He is a 60 lb lab mix with lots of love to give.

At 3 years old, this handsome pup has proven to be a loyal companion in his foster home. He’d love to find his forever home where he can show you what a great dog he really is!

Though he can still be a little shy when meeting new people, he warms up quickly and thrives when he feels safe and connected. He’s happiest just being near his people — whether that’s helping with yard work, keeping an eye for the intruder squirrels, or cuddling on the couch. Jager is housebroken, great on a leash, and gets along well with other dogs with introduction.

Jager is a "ladies dog" he will go straight for the cuddles when he hears a beautiful female voice. But really does love all people once he gets to know you. He will lean into you for cuddles and affection. He does great with other dogs, playing in the yard and enjoys zooming around the outdoor area. A sweet, active, and social boy ready for a second chance!

Jager would do best in a home with older children and would love a fenced in yard in his forever home. He absolutely loves the freedom of hanging outside while his family is does yard work or is relaxing.

Jager is available to adopt in the Chicagoland area and is being fostered in a home. Appointments to visit him will be set up for approved adopters only. Adoption fee is $200.00 which includes all appropriate vaccines, and he is neutered and microchipped.
