About Jack

Little Jack is a charming blend of a small shepherd and possibly a Black Mouth Cur. He was born in his foster mom's home after his mother was rescued near Borrego Springs. This adorable, clever, and friendly pup is projected to weigh around 35 to 40 pounds as he grows up. Jack has been well-socialized since birth and is great with all humans, including the little ones. Having interacted with a 3-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, he’s clearly a family-friendly companion. Jack is playful, perky, and always ready for puppy cuddles. He gets along well with dogs of all sizes and is friendly with cats. Remember, puppies require commitment and training, especially one who will grow as big as Jack is expected to. Adopting is a long-term commitment that deserves careful consideration. His adoption includes neutering and vaccinations for parvovirus, kennel cough, and rabies, along with any necessary flea or worm medications. Interested adopters can enjoy a 'sleepover' to see if Jack fits into their home dynamics. If you're ready for a spunky new best friend, consider reaching out about Jack today!
