Nash came to Pet Rescue by Judy along with his friend, Tobie, from a high kill shelter. They are the best of friend and really want to be adopted together!
These two lovebugs couldn't be sweeter! They are such good boys! Nash is the attention hog and he loves to cuddle, snuggle and play. Tobie is his mellow best buddy. He is happy just to hang back, chill out, and enjoy the day.
On a recent outing, both dogs were excellent on their leashes. They didn't pull at all. They were very well behaved at the cafe for lunch time. Content to sit by our sides through a long leisurely lunch while we ate and enjoyed coffee. They are very low stress pups, and so cute! They had multiple admirers while we were out and about.
They really adore each other and it is so cute to see - while walking they pause and wait for the other to catch up and they love to give each other kisses. If someone has room in their lives for these two pups they won't be sorry they are just so lovable and terrific. They are good with other dogs
Nash and Tobie are very bonded, they sleep together, eat together, play together and we decided we would like for them both to be adopted together. So please come by and watch how beautiful these two babies are together and we are sure you will agree.
Please look at their photo's on the bottom of their web pages. They just love each other so much and are so bonded.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Jack Russell Terrier was developed in 19th century England by a clergyman named Jack Russell. This feisty little terrier was used to hunt small game, particularly fox, by digging the quarry out of its den. Breeders have emphasized its working ability, so the standard is very broad, encompassing a wide range of accepted body types. On English hunts, the Jack Russell Terriers were supposed to be long-legged enough to keep up with the hounds. The energetic and playful Jack Russell makes a good family companion. The Jack Russell Terrier is a perky, merry, devoted, and loving dog. Spirited and obedient, yet absolutely fearless. Careful and amusing, he enjoys games and playing with toys. Friendly and generally kind to children who have been taught not to tease or strike the dog. They are intelligent, yet willful and determined. They have strong hunting instincts (stronger than your average terrier) and should not be trusted with other small animals. They like to chase and explore. Be careful not to let them off the lead unless they are very well-trained. Jack Russells like to bark and dig. They tend to get restless and destructive if not kept fruitfully occupied and well exercised. Jack Russells climb, which means they can climb over a fence, they also jump. A Jack that stands 12 inches high can easily jump five feet. JRTs are not the breed for a inexperienced dog owner. This is a BIG dog in a little dogs body. The owner needs to be as strong-willed as they are, or this little guy will take over.
