JACK - JACK RUSSELL TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Meet Jack! This sweet boy was found running as a stray in a known dumping area, but thanks to a Good Samaritan, he’s now safe with Worthy Dog. Jack quickly proved himself to be a happy, affectionate pup who adjusted quickly to home life. Jack has settled into his foster home, living with two retirees and their small dogs. He recently spent a long holiday weekend in a home that included multiple large dogs, a dog-savvy cat, and kids (ages 9 and 12), and did wonderfully there, too. Jack is easygoing with new dogs, gentle with kids, and indifferent to cats, so the total package. Confident and eager to please, Jack is treat-motivated, trainable, and happy to share toys and snacks. With his medium energy, he enjoys romping in the yard or playing with toys, but he’s just as content curling up on the couch for downtime. Jack gets two walks a day and multiple potty breaks, and does well on leash once he has a few sniffs under his belt. He is crate-trained, mostly house-trained, and sleeps through the night accident-free. This happy boy loves everyone he meets and will make a wonderful family companion. He’d especially enjoy a pup or kid playmate to share life’s adventures. Apply today!
