JACK — Small Dog, Big Vibes, Larger-Than-Life Personality

Jack is a Jack Russell x Manchester Terrier who lives like every day is an action movie and he’s the star. Picture Bear Grylls in a tiny, fur-covered body — minus the bug-eating (we think).

This guy is smart. Like, quiz-show-contestant smart. The kind of dog who would phone a friend, use his 50/50, and still win the jackpot — then spend the earnings on tennis balls and tactical harnesses.

He’s got a heart the size of a mountain and a personality that comes with flashing lights and theme music. But don’t be fooled — behind all that charisma is a clever little strategist who needs an adult home with a human who knows the rules of the game. If you don’t make a plan, Jack will make one for you. His previous family truly loved him — but as their lives changed, they made the heartbreaking decision to find Jack a home where he’d be the center of someone’s world again.

He needs purpose, enrichment, and someone who knows their way around a smart, active terrier mix. We are told that Jack displayed some behaviours in the home that required training and set boundaries that will need to be continued in his new home. According to Jack's previous owners, he has displayed some resource guarding around his toys and has given the occasional nip when feeling overwhelmed or unsure.

He’ll need an adult only, calm, confident home with experienced adopters who can continue the great work that’s already been done. With the right guidance, structure, and understanding, he’ll continue to thrive, because underneath it all, he’s a fantastic, loving dog who just needed a bit of help to feel safe and secure.
