Description
Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier / Dachshund / Mixed. Say hello to Tatum (but you can call her Tater Tots)! This tiny queen of cozy is a 13lb, 3.5 year old Jack Russell/Dachshund mix who rides like a dream in the car, snoozes like a champ in her crate, gets along with other dogs, and believes every warm blanket was placed on earth just for her. She’s still polishing her house training, but she makes up for it with endless snuggles and adorable squeaky-toy concerts. Her energy level can best be described as "snuggles with some zoomies." Tatum has not met any cats or kids while in her foster home, but we believe she could be fine with either if they are gentle and respectful. Tatum (aka Tater Tots) is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on core vaccines. She can join your home today with an approved application. Paws Across Pittsburgh, KL 16182

Breed overview
Overview:
The Jackshund is a delightful and energetic hybrid, a charming cross between the tenacious Dachshund and the spirited Jack Russell Terrier. Originating from designer breed popularity, these dogs inherit a unique blend of traits from both parents. Physically, they typically possess a compact build, often with the Dachshund's longer body and shorter legs, coupled with the Jack Russell's alert expression and sometimes wiry coat, though smooth coats are also common. Their temperament is generally described as playful, intelligent, and affectionate, often exhibiting a keen hunting instinct and a courageous streak. While they can be wonderful family pets, their energetic nature means they thrive with consistent training and ample exercise, making them potentially suitable for apartment living if their daily activity needs are met. Prospective owners should be aware of potential health considerations common to their parent breeds, such as intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) due to their elongated spine, and certain eye conditions or patellar luxation, emphasizing the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
