Story
East TN, Out of state not an option unless you can come to Athens TN. Betty White’s Story Meet Betty White. She and seven others have come to us at Pet Path from a serious hoarding situation out of Bradley county TN. They were not socialized with people at all but we have gotten them to come a long way. They now come for a few scratches and scratches. They love to come inside to sleep in their crate and be out all day. We just had to give each of the seven jacks super fun names to go with their super fun personalities. So she is Betty White because she is super sweet and the front of this little pack keeping things in order. She’s the first one to run up for chin scratches and loves to be in the center of everything. She’s pretty confident once she knows you and she is the little leader of this group of girls.She calls the shots here and the rest follow. She is really not so much a misfit we just think the names are fun. This little gal is begging to trust and be loved. She’s silly and sweet and will blossom in a home of her own. She came from a hoarding situation with several others and has taken some time to adjust to human interaction but she has come a really long way. She is not fond of being picked up but she does come close enough for booty scritches and scratches. She will also. often give you kisses. She is a Jack Russell mix with what we aren’t sure. She is very curious about everything and likes to know what’s going on and be in the center of it all, all the time. She will need a fenced yard and she may be a flight risk ant first til she knows you. She will need to be monitored when opening doors that are not leading out to a fenced yard area to make sure she does not escape. She’s a great gal that needs someone to give her time and patience to learn her new home and routine. She is crate trained and will sleep through the night. She does very well inside and will not potty unless you don’t let her out often enough she doesn’t quite know how to tell you she has to go potty but she does prefer to do it outside. Be sure you know the breed as Jacks are highly energetic, mischievous and can be devious little pups but they are also wonderful companions. That are also excellent rodent control. Forget the cat get yourself one of these and they will eradicate any vermin you may have. We have seen them do it and they are relentless about their job. Any of these girls would be happy on a farm if they have dog companions. Adopt two of them for maximum entertainment! Apply at petpath.org

They now come for a few scratches and scratches. They love to come inside to sleep in their crate and be out all day. We just had to give each of the seven jacks super fun names to go with their super fun personalities. So she is Two Face because she seems to be one of those types that are nice to your face but talk about you behind your back hence she likes to bark at you when your back is turned lol. She’s pretty shy but so sweetand just sort of hangs out towards to front of the pack to see what everyone else is doing and is one of the first to allow petting. She is really not so much a misfit we just think the names are fun. This little gal is begging to trust and be loved. She’s silly and sweet and will blossom in a home of her own. She came from a hoarding situation with several others and has taken some time to adjust to human interaction but she has come a really long way.

East TN, Out of state not an option unless you can come to Athens TN. Listen Linda’s Story Meet Linda. She and seven others have come to us at Pet Path from a serious hoarding situation out of Bradley county TN. They were not socialized with people at all but we have gotten them to come a long way. They now come for a few scratches and scratches. They love to come inside to sleep in their crate and be out all day. We just had to give each of the seven jacks super fun names to go with their super fun personalities. So she is Listen Linda because no one wants to hear her side of the situation. If you don’t know about the little boy (toddler) talking back to his grandmother who’s name is Linda, about how she is not listening when he got caught snacking before dinner, you owe it to yourself to check it out on social media! She’s actually very shy and just sort of hangs back to see what everyone else is doing before she proceeds to do anything or allow petting. She is really not so much a misfit we just think the names are fun. This little gal is begging to trust and be loved. She’s silly and sweet and will blossom in a home of her own. She came from a hoarding situation with several others and has taken some time to adjust to human interaction but she has come a really long way. She is not fond of being picked up but she does come close enough for booty scritches and scratches. She will also. often give you kisses. She is a Jack Russell mix with what we aren’t sure. She is very curious about everything and likes to know what’s going on and be on the outskirts of the action all the time. She will need a fenced yard and she may be a flight risk ant first til she knows you. She will need to be monitored when opening doors that are not leading out to a fenced yard area to make sure she does not escape. She’s a great gal that needs someone to give her time and patience to learn her new home and routine. She is crate trained and will sleep through the night.
