Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is our little guy, Jack! Also known as Jack Jack. Don't confuse him with Max, the dog from The Grinch. Although they are often compared, Jack has the cutest underbite that sets him apart & everyone is always commenting on how cute it is. Jack is a full-sized short stack at right under 30lbs. He has a slinky long body, short legs & a little pigeon-toed stance. He's always smiling and such a good-natured boy.
Even though Jack is a little over 3 years old, he still has the spitfire of a pup. He's got the face of an old soul and the demeanor of a large guard dog. Jack acts as security when he hears a loud noise or hears someone approaching.
He loves playing with other dogs in the dog park and his best pal is Oreo. They will play and romp for hours then settle down for a sweet nap after playing their hearts out. Jack has no fear of bigger dogs at the park, he loves chasing them & playing tag to get chased back.
Jack Jack is great with children and is mainly just curious with cats, he's unfazed by them and doesn't chase them. Jack is very close to being potty trained and goes into his crate with ease. When left alone, Jack will play with his toy, roam around the house, or take a nap just waiting for his foster Dad to come back home. He knows sit and is working on learning stay as well.
Jack would love a fun house with another pup to play with and lots of opportunities to go out and play with other dogs or the family kids. He's a fun lovable bundle of joy and will keep you laughing with joy.
