Getting around isn't as easy for Menomonee Falls middle school student Dylan Smith as it for many of his classmates. Smith has Muscular Dystrophy, and requires a wheelchair.

Jet is a super-handsome black Labrador Retriever.  He is about 6 years old and full of life!

Currently Jet is working with our Mod Squad!  HAWS’ Mod Squad is a group of volunteers from within our Behavior Department who team up with adoptable HAWS’ dogs, teaching them basic skills and helping them brush-up on their manners.

Jet’s best-bet adoptive home would be one with kids over 12 years of age, and one where he is the only pet (Jet is still working on some possessiveness issues).  A trainer at HAWS will gladly go through all of Jet’s needs to make sure you’re ready for success!
