Jack Russell Terrier - Skipper - Small - Adult - Male - Dog
Skipper is a handsome Jack Russell Terrier mix with a keen intellect and a loving disposition. He is high energy, but very well behaved and watches to see what is expected of him. Treat and praise motivated, he will make a perfect candidate for obedience training. Approval is important to Skipper ? he loves people and is very affectionate. He is selective with his canine friends, so if you already have a dog, we recommend bringing your dog to Pet Placement Center to meet Skipper. Skipper was born April 2011 and weighs 13 pounds.
We rescued Skipper from Catoosa County Animal Control. Jack Russell Terriers are amazingly athletic and bursting with energy. They are very intelligent and need this intellect channeled into productive exercise and tasks to keep them happy. They have natural instinct to hunt, track, and solve problems in the wild. Jack Russells will want plenty of walks and excursions. In an apartment or small home, you?ll almost hear the ?humming? energy of your JRT: They are perky, lively and fiercely protective of their environments. And they make great guard dogs: A stranger approaching the house will be met with relentless barking. Not only are they useful, they can be?with the proper focus and training?excellent members of the family: loyal, loving and fun.
Jack Russell Terriers have a fierce, headstrong independence and need special attention to maintain an even keel. For this reason, some experts recommend that only experienced dog handlers should have one. Animal shelters around the country have plenty of unmanageable Jack Russells whose owners raised them untrained and unchecked. ??Apartments are okay for Jack Russells, but a fenced-in yard is ideal?they love to bark and dig and chase small animals. However, a fenced-in yard will often not be enough for these dogs. Though small, they can leap very high and have been known to jump fences when they get bored and restless. On a walk, always keep them on a leash. They are incredibly fast, plus they have an intense curiosity and a fearlessness that could get them into trouble with bigger dogs. Jack Russell Terriers get along fine with the whole family, but young children should be taught not to tease or hurt them.
