About Jack Skellington

Jack Skellington is a lively 1.5-year-old neutered male Chihuahua mix who weighs in at 8 lbs. With his playful curiosity, he brings a spark of mischief to any home, just like his namesake. Jack enjoys lap time and is full of energy, ready to take on even the biggest dogs in a playful bout. While he dislikes being alone, he finds a cozy spot to rest away from people when needed. He’s affectionate and a bit of a sweetie pie, but he needs a little help with potty training, especially in rainy weather. Routine and encouragement will go a long way for him. Although he’s not a fan of the crate, he settles down after a few minutes. Having come from a hoarding situation, Jack is alert and keen, which could make him a great natural alarm system. This is a little dog with a big personality, and he’s ready for consistency and love. If you think he might fit into your life, apply today!
