My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Jack came to us in a very unusual way. About 9 months ago, a man basically handed him to my husband and said he was getting rid of him for his boss. We fell in love from the very first day. Since then, we’ve been working with him on trusting people and being confident. He has come such a long way! Since we’ve had him, he has not bitten anyone. He can occasionally be fearful around new people but will just avoid them, not act aggressively. He loves treats, head scratches, bones, and cuddling on the couch. He also has a stuffed monster toy that he loves to take care of and carry around the house with him. The vet thinks he is about 7-8 years old, but when he is feeling playful he seems like a much younger dog. We adore him so very much and are completely and totally heartbroken to have to give him up due to a change in our living situation. We want him to be placed in a home with breed experience, as he will need time to become comfortable in a new home. He is house trained.
