Rowdy's Story

This sweet, gentle boy is a medium–low energy pup who thrives in a calm, relaxed environment. He can be shy when meeting new people, especially men, and may approach cautiously with his tail tucked, but with patience and kindness he warms up and builds trust. He is friendly with women, does well with children, and happily co-exists with other laid-back, easygoing dogs. He greets new canine friends politely and takes his cues from them. He settles quietly in a crate, is doing well with house training, and shows no signs of resource guarding or separation anxiety. While he hasn’t been tested with cats and is still gaining confidence on leash, he is eager to learn and improve. Fearful of loud noises, he will benefit from gentle confidence-building and a peaceful home where he can feel safe, included in daily activities, and continue blossoming into the loving companion he’s meant to be.<br/><br/>Adoption fee: $550<br/><br/>Name: Rowdy<br/><br/>Breed: Jack Russell Terrier mix <br/><br/>Age: ~9 years <br/><br/>Weight: ~18lb<br/><br/>Sex: Male, neutered<br/><br/>Medical: Received dental cleaning, skin scrape negative <br/><br/>Good with men: Yes - shy/scared, but warms up<br/><br/>Good with women: Yes - friendly<br/><br/>Good with kids 0-6: Yes, but has not lived with small children<br/><br/>Good with kids 7-15: Yes, but has not lived with children<br/><br/>How does the dog typically act when meeting new people?
