Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 495.00. Meet Willis — a 2-year-old, 11 lb Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix with a heart full of love and legs ready for adventure! Quick Facts: Name: Willis Breed: Jack Russell/Chihuahua Mix Age: 2 years old Weight: 11 lbs House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Not tested Good with Kids: Not tested, but would likely be great! Energy Level: Medium Fence Required: No, but a fence is preferred so he can run and play! About Willis’ Breed: Our best guess is that Willis is a Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix. This mixed breed is a blend of spunky energy and loyal charm. These small dogs pack a big personality and make wonderful companions for active individuals or families. They are known for their feisty, fun-loving nature and deep loyalty to their humans. They have a tendency to be vocal and often have a playful streak, making them great for interactive games and toys. Daily walks and playtime are also essential to burn off energy. They do best in homes where they can be close to their people and get regular exercise! Willis is a snuggly little pumpkin who’s equal parts lap warmer and trail buddy. He’s potty trained, crate trained, and has a soft spot for long walks and mountain hikes—he’s even conquered a 7-mile trek with ease! While he does experience some separation anxiety, he’s happiest when he can follow his person around and nap nearby, making him a perfect match for someone who works from home or is home a lot. Willis’ Wonderful Highlights: • Potty and crate trained, with great house manners • Loves women, and follows his foster mom like a shadow • Great with other dogs, even those twice his size! • Interested in cats, meet-and-greet recommended • Medium energy—relaxed at home, playful in the yard • Obsessed with walks, hikes, and leash time (he must have a family who loves walks as much as he does!) • Loves tug-of-war, chasing doggie pals, and meal time • Snuggly and sweet, naps in laps and sleeps at your feet • Might jump when excited, but it’s all love • Territorial bark, but mostly playful curiosity • 100% loyal, and easy to love Willis is looking for a loving home with a fenced yard, a comfy couch, and a human (preferably female energy) who’s around most of the day. He’s a gentle, affectionate companion who will bring joy, cuddles, and a whole lot of personality to your life. If you’re ready for a devoted little sidekick who’ll hike mountains with you by day and snuggle by night, Willis is waiting to steal your heart!

More About Jack Chi BreedOverview:
The Jack Chi is a delightful designer breed, a cross between the spirited Chihuahua and the energetic Jack Russell Terrier. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parents, this hybrid typically inherits a compact size, weighing between 8-18 pounds and standing 10-15 inches tall. Their physical appearance varies, often featuring a short, smooth coat in colors like black, white, tan, or a combination, with alert, intelligent eyes. Temperamentally, Jack Chis are known for being playful, intelligent, and loyal companions. They possess the Chihuahua's affectionate nature and the Jack Russell's zest for life, making them engaging pets. While adaptable to apartment living due to their smaller stature, they require regular exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. They can be good with families who understand their need for consistent training and socialization, especially with younger children. Notable health considerations for the Jack Chi include potential predispositions to conditions seen in their parent breeds, such as patellar luxation, dental issues, and heart problems, highlighting the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
