My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Shorty is magic.
Shorty is a 5-year-old “puddin’” Jack Russell who has won our hearts with his affection and charm. Shorty came to us with Lucy and their daughter Lilly after their owner died suddenly. Shorty is quite simply one of the most wonderful Jack Russells we have ever come across. Something about him touches the soul.
Shorty is very affectionate and loves to lie across your lap or next to you. He gladly share that space with his ladies, Lucy, Lilly and Emma. He loves to play ball or fetch and lives to chase squirrels. Most importantly, he is just so darn sweet and we just cannot stop kissing pinching his cheeks.
A “puddin’” is a Jack Russell with a dwarf dream similar to the gene found in bully breeds. He has a larger head and chest than “normal” Jack Russells but is also shorter, standing only 11” tall but weighing just over 23 pounds. “Puddin’s” live just as long as other Jack Russells and are just as healthy.
Special consideration will be given to families who will consider adopting both Shorty and Lilly, primarily because Lilly is bonded with Shorty. Shorty does just fine on his own.
Shorty is neutered, up to date on all vaccines, heartworm negative and on flea/tick and heartworm/parasite prevention. If you would like to meet Shorty, contact his foster Dad Christopher at uncbare@yahoo.com.
