My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Skipper, a beautiful and spirited 4.5-month-old Jack Russell Terrier, Rat Terrier and Chihuahua mix, weighing in at a delightful 9 pounds. This petite dynamo is a true gem, blending the lively energy of a Jack Russell with the charm of a Chihuahua.

Skipper is not just a ball of energy - she's a sweetheart who loves to cuddle and be held. Although initially a bit shy, Skipper isn't one to shy away from affection. Grabbing at her might be a tad intimidating, but the patience to let her come to you is undoubtedly rewarded. When she does, it's a heartwarming experience as she snuggles close, sharing her warmth and affection.

Playtime is where Skipper truly shines. She's a playful soul who actively seeks out interaction. Whether it's a game of fetch, a playful romp in the yard, or a wrestling match with her larger foster siblings, Skipper is always up for a good time. Her boundless enthusiasm and infectious energy make her a joy to have around.

Skipper is not just a playmate; she's also a well-mannered companion. She excels in her crate and has proven to be house-trained, with no potty accidents to report. Her adaptability and good behavior make her a great fit for a variety of living situations.

Skipper's friendly nature extends to everyone, making her an ideal companion for families with children. Her manageable size and gentle demeanor ensure that she's a fantastic addition to any home.
