Una Jack Russell Terrier Mix Wilkes-Barre, PA

Una is a unique personality with lots of love to give the right family. She won’t be a perfect fit for everyone, so please don’t feel slighted if you’re not the lucky one to take Una home.

Una means singular, in spanish and that’s because she’s one of a kind, and we’re looking for a one of a kind person/small family for her. She’s been through a lot and she’s particular about her needs and environment. Firstly, Una’s decided she’s been through enough in her short life and isn’t looking for a loud home. If you’re a large, happy active family who likes to entertain and socialize, that’s great for you, but Una says you need to find yourself a lab mix, she’s not about that life.

She’d like it if you had some other fur friends however, and she’d like a steady supply of toys, treats and patience. Patience , while we’re on the topic, the other thing about Una is you have to be the kind of person who’s willing to wait for Una to accept you into her circle. If you’re the rush in for the hug kinda person… Una’s going to give you the hard pass. She wants lots of pets, but not on the first day, she’s just not kind of girl.

Una is skeptical of strangers and really doesn’t have a lot of patience for all the people who want to come and try to take her home. She communicates this with big loud barks. Una figures anyone worth meeting would have a nice treat with them, and if they don’t they should probably go away, and she’s not afraid to let them know.

None of this is to say that Una is anyway unfriendly. Just the opposite. Una gets along great with kids, cats and dogs. As we mentioned she’s just one of a kind, and her preference is a calm and quiet environment. When things get hectic, Una becomes anxious and expresses this with pacing, loud barks and sometimes potty mishaps.
