My story

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

Hi, I’m Jack! I am so excited to meet you! I am a year and a half, but you can pick my birthday, I’m just happy to be here. I love to cuddle and my love language is definitely physical touch. I am a professional cuddler, sunbather, splooter and napper. I have been hanging with my two foster sisters and I am very much attached. Will my new home have friends?
I do get a little worried when people leave but settle down after a few minutes. I met three human babies and loved them all, they smell funny and I licked their feet and heads. Played with a toddler and older kid in the neighbor, it was so fun! I really love going on walks, but I am not a sprinter or an endurance athlete, all about leisurely strolls over here. I will run, but it’s not fast and it won’t be for long.
I am not afraid of the vacuum cleaner, male humans or rain storms. I will absolutely, tolerate a bath but it wouldn’t be in my top 5 things to do. I love chewing on bones and playing with toys.
Even though someone shot me with a pellet and bb bullet, both removed, I still very much love BIG and I cannot wait to love on my forever family for the rest of my days!

Foster Notes:
* 15/10 best boy
* Loves dog friends, would recommend slow introductions with males, but great once introduced.
* Has not shown a single ounce of aggression. Gets over excited when seeing another dog.
* Will chase squirrels.
* Has not met a cat
* Kid friendly, infant and toddler tested
* Loves chewing on bones and playing with toys.
* Walking approximately 1 mile/day, slows down towards the end
* Listens to “no”
* Ready to please and trainable
* Loves treats
* Overall, very happy guy
* Sleeps all night in bed with foster sisters
* Had a few dinner parties and gathering and Jack wanted to be right in the middle of it and loved meeting everyone.
