With consistent training and structure, Jack Russells thrive as loyal, highly entertaining companions.

Jackie’s Story & Personality:
Jackie is the definition of a wiggle worm—bouncy, curious, and eager to love. While she can be timid around new people, once she opens up, she’s all kisses and cuddles. Jackie is still learning the ropes of being a house dog, but she’s picking it up fast—her potty training and crate training are coming along with each day. She absolutely adores playing with other dogs and would love a home with friendly canine siblings who enjoy romping around the yard. Jackie isn’t quite ready for young kids due to her jumpy enthusiasm, but in the right home, her joy and love will shine. She needs a fenced yard to safely let out her Jack Russell energy, and some patience from her future family as she builds trust and confidence. She’s sweet, spunky, and full of potential.
Jackie’s Perfect Home:
A fenced yard for safe zoomies and exploration
A home with one or two similarly sized, playful dogs
An adopter with patience and a calm environment to help her build confidence
Older kids or adult-only home preferred due to her jumpy nature
A family that can provide structure, continued training, and gentle encouragement
Someone looking for a bright, loving companion who will thrive with time and care
