He’s smart (too much for his own good), playful (boundless energy), and very much a Velcro dog. He’s accustomed to AC indoor life, but very much enjoys time outside with his people. Whether its walking or field running, Jack is game for most anything. He is quite a vocal dog, both in play and in states of excitement. He enjoys tug and hand play, and has a very good ‘drop it’ and ‘all done’ command. <br/><br/>About a year ago, Jack was diagnosed with juvenile cataracts and has had slow vision loss since then. He is expected to be all but blind in 1-2 years according to his veterinary eye doctor. That being said, Jack doesn’t let his vision slow him down much. He is still up for zoomies and playtime at the drop of a toy! It has made him slightly more cautious when meeting new people and when going potty at night, but those are his biggest tells at this stage.<br/><br/>Jack is very house broken and knows loads of basic commands and tricks with the right words and motivation. He has had experience dock diving prior to his vision diagnosis, so he’s a pretty athletic guy! He would probably love to swim now, even if he can’t see to catch the toy. He doesn’t have bad destructive behavior and limited bad habits as long as his people are firm, consistent, and fair. He is e-collar trained to assist with recall and wears a prong for walks. I wouldn’t classify Jack as an “easy public access/go anywhere with you” kind of dog, as he gets VERY excited about new places. So much so that he pulls quite a bit and is very vocal in his anxious state. He behaves the best on walks in areas he is very familiar with, or on an off leash run around a field while his humans mosey around. <br/><br/>Inside, he is happy to sleep in his crate or in the human bed at night. Jack is used to being out most of the day with his people home, but crates fine when necessary, during the day. He rides in the car crated, and has some car anxiety, but mostly when stopping to get out at the new and exciting place you have driven to. He is afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks but does fine in his covered crate in these situations. <br/><br/>Jack has been a single pet his whole life, and has limited experience being around other dogs for extended periods of time and has no experience with cats. He would do best in an all-adult household, or a home with older teenage kids. <br/><br/>Reason for rehoming:<br/><br/>I got Jack when my husband and I first got married. I raised and trained him myself. We welcomed our first child in 2022, and it became apparent fairly early on that Jack was not very fond of small children, avoiding my son whenever possible. We had our second in 2024, shortly after receiving his cataracts diagnosis and were planning to pursue surgery. As his vision has deteriorated, he has had several collisions with my 3-year-old when we are all outside together and recently gave my 10-month-old a black eye when he ran past him and his leg hit the baby in the eye unintentionally. None of that is Jack’s fault, he was just being a boisterous Brittany. We just unexpectedly found out we are having a third child, due to this we will not be able to pursue surgery, and I fear that as Jack loses more of his sight that he will become more wary around the kids. Jack deserves a home where he can be comfortable with his people and have his energy and attention needs met.
