This poor dog was found left behind and abandoned at a dog park!
Foster update:Rubee is a great little dog- very cute, sweet and well-behaved. When she was found she was covered with fleas and very itchy with pink skin. However, now that the fleas are gone and she has had anti-itch meds, she is doing much better with the itching and skin is looking better.
Leash Manners- Good on the leash- Is interested in exploring, but doesn't pull.
Crate/House Training- Is house trained and goes in the crate willingly and is quiet in the crate.
Socialization- Is good with other dogs and people (including kids). She can be a little nervous with strangers at first and may bark briefly, but warms up quickly. Follows "her person" around most of the time.
Energy Level and Exercise- Is happy to run around and play, but is just as happy to rest and relax. Pretty much takes the lead of her person.
Daily Structure and Schedule- Eats twice a day and is a very good eater. Sleeps quietly through the night and doesn't have to be crated. Confidence Level- Is confident with other dogs and unfamiliar places/situations, but a little nervous with new people at first.
Obediance Training- Doesn't seem to have any obediance training, but is a good girl and responds to correction and her name.
Ideal Home- Seems that she would be flexible and happy in a variety of homes. She would make a very nice companion for a single person and could also be a family dog.
Rubee qualifies for our senior for senior program. If adopted by a senior person (55+) her adoption fee is $75.00
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Jack Russell Terrier was developed in 19th century England by a clergyman named Jack Russell. This feisty little terrier was used to hunt small game, particularly fox, by digging the quarry out of its den. Breeders have emphasized its working ability, so the standard is very broad, encompassing a wide range of accepted body types. On English hunts, the Jack Russell Terriers were supposed to be long-legged enough to keep up with the hounds. The energetic and playful Jack Russell makes a good family companion. The Jack Russell Terrier is a perky, merry, devoted, and loving dog. Spirited and obedient, yet absolutely fearless. Careful and amusing, he enjoys games and playing with toys. Friendly and generally kind to children who have been taught not to tease or strike the dog. They are intelligent, yet willful and determined. They have strong hunting instincts (stronger than your average terrier) and should not be trusted with other small animals. They like to chase and explore. Be careful not to let them off the lead unless they are very well-trained. Jack Russells like to bark and dig. They tend to get restless and destructive if not kept fruitfully occupied and well exercised. Jack Russells climb, which means they can climb over a fence, they also jump. A Jack that stands 12 inches high can easily jump five feet. JRTs are not the breed for a inexperienced dog owner. This is a BIG dog in a little dogs body. The owner needs to be as strong-willed as they are, or this little guy will take over.
