My story

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

Paul – The Loyal Gentleman

Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Birthday: 8/19/2020
Weight: 10 pounds
Health: Healthy, fully vaccinated, and neutered

Personality:

Paul is a sweet and loyal little gentleman with a big heart in a small body. As a Jack Russell, he’s smart, alert, and always ready for adventure, but at five years old, he’s also mellowed into a wonderful balance of playful energy and calm companionship. Paul loves spending time with people, whether it’s going for walks, chasing toys, or curling up for quiet time.

Owner’s Responsibilities:

  • Provide daily exercise—Paul has a curious terrier mind and enjoys activities that challenge him

  • Use consistent training and positive reinforcement to keep him engaged

  • Keep up with veterinary care, nutrition, and preventive health

  • Offer socialization and interaction to keep him confident and well-adjusted

Things to Consider:

  • Energy: Though small, Paul still has the lively Jack Russell spirit and will need outlets for exercise

  • Time: He thrives with attention and daily activities—best for families not away for long hours

  • Allergies & Landlords: Check pet policies and allergies before adoption

Commitment for Life:

Adopting Paul means being his family for the rest of his life, giving him the love, care, and stability he deserves. Remember the 3-3-3 rule: it can take 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn a routine, and 3 months to fully settle into a new home. With patience, Paul will become your loyal shadow and best friend.

Why Paul Would Be a Great Addition:

Paul is the perfect mix of playful energy and gentle companionship. His intelligence and loving nature will enrich your life daily, whether you’re looking for a walking buddy, a smart little companion, or a loyal family member. He’s past the puppy stage but still full of charm, making him an easy addition to a loving home.
