08-09-13 Hake is a 7 year old Jack Russell ex stud dog. The farm he came from no longer required him. He has been in the wars at some point and has only half a bottom jaw. He seems to manage fine with this but it looks a little strange from underneath. He loves cuddles and has really enjoyed all the attention he has been given. He walks a little on a lead but will probably need a little help to learn about house training and a little time to get used to living in a home. In the circumstances we would consider homing him as an only dog although he is good with the bitch he shares his kennel with and we would be happy to home him with others.
05-10-13 UPDATE
Hake has been in a foster home for two weeks now and the change in him is amazing. He has never lived in a house before but is now completely clean, but I am still reminding him to go out. He was not keen on going for walks in the beginning but now he loves them. He is a tiny bit stiff so he would not be suited to lots of long walks but a plod round the park or even the block would suit him fine. He has come face to face with quite a few cats whilst out walking and totally ignores them. He is brilliant with all dogs he meets both at home and when out walking. He sleeps like a log in his bed all night and does not bark much and never whines.He is not that good at travelling probably because he has never travelled before.
Hake is good with children but his ideal home would be someone who is as lonely as he is and he will snuggle into you on the settee and so be your best friend. He is a very happy fellow and is always wagging his tail and just loves a fuss. The fact that he is missing a part of his bottom jaw is hardly noticeable and does not bother him in the slightest. The only time you get a reaction from him is when he hears a squeak so tiny animals such as rats, mice,guinea pigs etc are a definite no. This boy has had a hard life and he truly is an adorable little cuddle monster that deserves his very own person.

PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information onADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
