Meet Jakob

🌟 Meet Jakob

Jakob is a sweet, energetic boy with a huge heart and an even bigger love for people. His favorite hobbies include giving hugs, handing out kisses, and playing an enthusiastic game of fetch.

He’s a smart, curious dog who loves exploring the world one sniff at a time. Walks are an adventure because Jakob likes to investigate every light post and check out the neighborhood. At home he enjoys keeping watch over the yard like a very dedicated security guard with ears that seem to swivel in every direction.

Jakob is also a proud collector of “treasures.” Socks, cardboard tubes, and other mysterious household finds sometimes make their way into his collection. He is already learning what belongs to him and loves trading for proper dog toys, which shows how eager he is to learn.

With his affectionate personality, playful spirit, and curious mind, Jakob is the kind of dog who will keep you smiling and make every day a little more fun.

I’m so excited to meet my potential new family! To make sure we have the best first impression, I’d feel most comfortable meeting new people with one of my friends (a FOHA staff or volunteer) by my side. The best way to set up a successful meet-and-greet is by submitting an application first. Thanks for considering me!

I’m also eligible for FOHA’s Foster Forward Program, which helps long-stay animals like me experience home life and increases my chances of adoption.

How Am I With Other Dogs?
I LOVE other dogs! I’m a playgroup regular and you can often find me rolling around with my friends!

How Am I With Cats?
No cats for me, please.

How Am I With Kids?
Unknown right now. Would do better in a home without small children (13+). Slow, thoughtful introductions will help us see if we’re a good match.

Training & Skills
I know: sit, down, easy, stay and is learning roll-over, leave it & drop it!

Housebreaking & Crating
I am crate-trained and house-trained.

Things I Like
He loves all sorts of toys. Especially balls he can play fetch with. Rubber toys that squeak. And tough chewing toys. He also loves soft stuffed animals which he is very gentle with. He mostly likes games that involve a person; loves fetch!

Things I Dislike
Getting into cars make me a little nervous right now, but my wonderful foster is helping me build confidence.
