Description
Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier. Rocky is 9 months old and weighs about 20 pounds, with a little extra chunky monkey charm. He is very sweet, quiet, and naturally submissive. He is incredibly loving and people-oriented. Rocky is a Shortie Jack Russell with an easy, adaptable temperament. He can run and play if you want activity, or he can relax and be a couch potato if the day is quiet. He adjusts to the pace of the home and is not a high-energy terrier. Rocky currently uses a pet door in his foster home for potty breaks, which has helped him understand that potty happens outdoors. Even without a pet door, this foundation makes his transition easier, but he will still need patience, supervision, and continued training as he learns your home and routine.

Overview:
The Jack Russell Terrier is a small, energetic dog breed originating from England in the mid-1800s, specifically bred by Reverend John Russell for fox hunting. These compact canines are easily recognized by their sturdy, muscular build, typically weighing between 13-17 pounds, with a height of 10-15 inches at the shoulder. Their coats can be smooth, broken, or rough, predominantly white with black, tan, or tricolor markings. Known for their spirited and confident temperament, Jack Russells are highly intelligent but can also be quite stubborn, requiring consistent training and ample mental stimulation. While devoted to their families, their high energy levels and strong prey drive make them better suited for active households with secure outdoor spaces rather than small apartments. They can thrive with children if properly socialized, though supervision is always advised due to their boisterous play. Generally healthy, they can be prone to certain genetic conditions such as patellar luxation, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, and some eye disorders, making responsible breeding crucial.
