Meet Jack, this charming 3.5-month-old puppy who already weighs in at a cuddly 17 lbs! 🐾 As a delightful Border Collie mix, he's expected to grow up to around 40 lbs of pure joy. Jack is not just any puppy; he’s on a journey to find his forever home – and you could be the one to help him complete that journey! 🎉 With those big puppy eyes and a curious nature, he’ll steal your heart in an instant. Now, let’s talk about what it takes to raise this fabulous little guy. Jack is looking for an experienced adopter who’s ready to embrace the joyful chaos of puppyhood. This isn’t just puppy love; it's a commitment that includes structured routines and plenty of daily exercise. Imagine yourself out in the park, strutting around for 90 minutes each morning, engaging Jack with brain games and potty breaks. It’s like a morning workout for both of you! 🏃‍♂️💨 Jack is a medium-energy fellow at the moment, but get ready because his energy level will soar as he hits his teenage months (think ‘growing pains’ but with a tail!). So, a lifestyle filled with activities and training will be essential. He’s a sponge for learning, but keep in mind that patience and consistency will be crucial as he navigates his puppy whims. Now, while he’s working on potty training, Jack is still in that adorable phase where he might have a few accidents here and there. 🥴 But don’t you worry; this is all just part of the journey to becoming a well-mannered adult dog! As for his social skills, Jack is ready for some playful interactions! He’s friendly with other dogs and has the potential to be pals with a lucky cat or two, provided they have the right vibe. 🐱❤️ Jack is a puppy, which means his playful antics include some mouthy behavior. Expect some gentle nibbles as he explores the world around him! When it comes to family, kids aged 8 and up will do perfectly. Little ones may get a little too excited, and Jack’s playful energy might accidentally lead to some rambunctious moments. 🧒✨ As for his separation anxiety? Well, he might show signs early on when left alone, but with the right training, he’ll learn to be a strong independent pup. Did we mention he’s also working on those leash manners? Jack could use a little school in that department, so if you're up for the challenge of teaching him, he’s more than ready to learn! Let’s not forget the heartwarming story of how Jack came to be with us. Like many of his furry friends, Jack was rescued from a risky situation in Tennessee where he could have faced euthanasia. Through our incredible partner organizations, we’re able to help save pups like him and bring them to the north for a brighter future. 🌈🐶 Remember, Jack isn’t stationed at the Social Tees office; he’s currently thriving in a lovely foster home, with all the love and snuggles he could wish for. If Jack’s adorable demeanor and adventurous spirit have caught your eye, take the leap and apply to adopt him through the Buddy App! Your next furry friend is just a click away! 🐕💖
