Jax is being raised and trained to provide life-changing independence to someone with a physical disability other than visual impairment or to work with a professional such as a teacher, psychologist or victim services worker to help support a healthy community.

In August, 2023, Jax took the next step in his journey and entered Advanced Training where heโ€™ll learn the skills needed to support his future partner.

After careful consideration, Jax was released from the Puppy Raising Program. Unfortunately, Jax’ lack of vigour makes him unsuitable for a career as a working dog. He has settled in beautifully to his new home as a pampered pet. We hope that he enjoys the pet life! Thanks to everyone who had a part in Jax’ journey. All the best to you, Jax!
