Jack Terrier & Hound Mix Elburn, IL

HI, my name is Jack, I'm just about 2 years old, they call me a "Tennessee mix". I'm what you would call a 40lb lap dog.

I love people, of all ages. My foster home has 3 kids, 4 to 14, and I love to play with all of them. I haven't been around other dogs, but being I’m a pretty submissive male and I think I would like them.

I enjoy playing with my toys, balls (I'm working on playing catch, I throw the ball to myself sometimes) taking long walks or short, your choice. I am completely housebroken, and semi crate trained. I would enjoy a home where someone is home most of the time, like I said, I love my people. I would like a fenced yard, but it’s not a must as long as you like to take walks.

I'm a great dog, looking for my own family to love!
