Jack
1 year old
Jack Russell
Jack came in as a stray but was never claimed. Jack is a typical Jack Russell.  If you haven't owned one, make sure you speak to someone who has prior to adopting one. They are a high energy dog .
Jack was adopted the other day but sadly, tragically, he was returned in one hour because he had a normal dogy reaction. We aren't sure exactly what happened but we do know what was described to us is NOT the Jack we have seen at the rescue. We were told that Jack was fed a big meal upon arriving home and then the adopter bent over to put a leash on and Jack bit his hand.  We don't know if the man approached quickly, towered over Jack or exactly what triggered this but we have leashed Jack hundreds of times without incident.
We immediately ran to pick Jack up when the adopter called and when we pulled up there was an older woman in the yard holding Jack by the collar. Jack was not growling or attempting to bite her, he simply stood there.
We feel that Jack was let down. We feel sick over him having to experience something like this. It isn't fair to Jack. We know Jack is a good dog and he is sweet and loving. He just needs a person who understands that overwhelming a dog immediately after adoption is not the way you do it.
Jack loves other dogs and he is house trained and crate trained. We are confident that Jack will be a wonderful companion for someone with the knowledge and patience to help him acclimate to a brand new home.
