Title: Anyone looking for a Jack Russel?
Post by: funkyfish on July 10, 2016, 09:28:23 am: hi! Haven't even on here for a while as gave up small holding a couple years ago due to health reasons. So sorry to post out of the blue!

Any ways, I have a very sweet 5 month Jack Russell as a foster from work (I'm a vet nurse) to try and fine a home for. Clients bought him as companion for their dog aggressive patter dale...... So after their dog trying to attack him he now needs a home! Not sure he will make a ratter, but he is just such a sweet natured and happy little soul who is very easy to have around. Well socialised with animals and people, very very trainable with lovely focus, loves to learn!

Does anyone want a fantastic Jack rat? If I didn't have four dogs in a flat with no garden and a pony with strangles and laminitis he would not be going anywhere! Suitable as first terrierist experience!

In devon pm or email for pics and more details vsnessa@vetnurse.co.uk

OH was talking about having a terrier to replace BC we lost a few weeks ago, remaining BC needs someone to liven her up.

It's wait and see for now, if little fella gets a home where there isn't as much travelling I can understand that would be better for him, but fingers crossed :fc:
