Story
Jack has been bounced around A LOT in his young life. We think he is the best most handsome boy EVER. If you want to give this energetic pup a chance at forever, keep reading! Jack, formerly known as Kip, is a Tails dog who thought he found his forever. Unfortunately, Jack and his cat sibling are not getting along, so Jack is on the hunt for a forever family who will love him unconditionally. Jack has A LOT of energy and needs to have a fenced in yard so he can run and play. He is dog friendly, child friendly, and crate/potty trained. Jack is well trained and loves showing off his tricks, especially sit and shake! Jack doesn’t chew on items or furniture. He really is the best boy! Jack LOVES his people and doesn’t like to be alone, so he would thrive in a home where someone is around to keep him company often. He enjoys snuggling, receiving butt scratches, and giving kisses. Jack is so handsome and a ton of fun to be around! Jack would love to have a family who will take him on hiking adventures and then give him the best scratches while you snuggle on the couch! Jack has been known to chase cat siblings, so he’d prefer a home without a cats (we are hopeful that with appropriate exercise this behavior will go away). He can also be choosy with other dogs he gets a long great with some but is a little uncertain with others. He has shown no aggression towards people. If you want to adopt Jack please find us on FB OR on our website tailsoftheforgottepaws.org and fill out an application!
