Meet Jett Ranger, a male Boston Terrier looking to be the only dog in his forever home. He is happy with adults or older teens, and will likely thrive in a calm, stable environment with consistent routines. Jett is eager to please and is loyal and protective of his family. He is quite smart and is highly motived by food and affection. Jett enjoys spending time outside exploring and sleeping in the sun, so a fenced yard with enough room to run is ideal. A daily walk to burn off some energy and explore would be a plus. He also quite likes a soft blanket for naps and is happiest snuggled in bed or on a couch next to his humans.
