Jax's Biggest Loser Campaign

Meet Jax! He came to OBG on February 1st after his elderly owners could no longer care for him.  Among a myriad of medical issues including a terrible skin condition, poor Jax came in weighing a whopping 56 pounds --- yes 56 pounds, a good 25-30 pounds overweight.  Our vets determined Jax suffers from hypothryoidism which contributed to his weight gain and skin infection.  The good news is this condition is not serious and it is inexpensive to treat. He is doing very well now with treatment!

Jax is on a mission to lose at least 27 pounds in the next six to nine months. He has lost 15 pounds so far! Let's cheer him on to "LOSE THAT WEIGHT!" Watch the blog for weekly updates on his progress.  You will hear from Jax, his foster bro (and former alum) Ziggy, and foster Mom Mary.  Their posts are hilarious!  Here is a link to their most recent post! GO JAX!
