Colin`s dog Jax is a full bred Beagle and 2 years old. His birthday was on June 14, 2011. He was adopted on September 27, 2011.

“The Six Golden Questions”:

   What does your pet like?

Walking, riding in vehicle and on ski-doo, playing in the yard, chasing Colin around.  He also likes listening to Kiana play the piano.

   What does your pet not like?

Jax hates getting his nails done.  He doesn’t like to see a moose and barks and whines at them.

   Favourite toy?

He loves chewing on Michael’s hands and also loves stuffed toys because he chews them apart to get the stuffing out.


   Favourite food?

Jax loves table food, especially steak bones.  He can spend hours chewing on a bone.  He also loves Humpty Dumpty Cheesies and dog treats.

   What have you learned since you have had your pet?

Since we’ve gotten Jax, we learned that dogs are like a part of the family.  They need lots of love, attention and discipline.  Jax is like a little boy who waits in the window until everyone gets home.  He cries when we leave him, especially if we go on a trip and leave him home with Michael.  He is very happy and content when everyone is home. 

   Do you have any advice for other pet owners?

To anyone who is interested in getting a Beagle, they require lots of attention and you need lots of patience.  They have a short attention span and when outside, their nose is always towards the ground because they love to sniff everything in sight.
