Handsome Jack!

Jack's been with us for a week and we've got nothing but good things to say about him! Jack has had no accidents in the house for over a week, so we're gonna say the he's housebroken. Jack's had no problem with steps and is very nimble and adaptable in new situations. Loud noises don't seem to bother him, though he is curious about where they come from. Curious and adaptable seem to be the words that best describe Jack. He's not afraid of doing new things and going new places and he just loves people. He's a bit of a shadow sometimes and will follow you around just to see if anything new and exciting is going on in, say, the laundry room - while nothing exciting EVER goes on in the laundry room, Jack doesn't mind one bit! If you're there, that's good enough for him! All this curiosity does come with a small price tag: vigilance. Jack will try anything once (maybe twice if it was fun!) and seems to like the taste of small, rubber toys like those Polly Pockets and Littlest Petshop things, so families with kids will need to keep those things out of reach 'til Jack learns that they're not his (unless ya like sifting through dog poop to recover them, though why you'd want to do that is anybody's guess). Speaking of toys, Jack has learned to play with dog toys over the past few days and really, really likes the one's that SQUEAK!
Jack is doing well on the leash and has no problems going potty while leashed. I've also had him for a jog of approximately 2 miles with no problems, so he should make a good running/jogging companion.
Those with cats would probably be better off with another hound as Jack is NOT cat-safe. Seriously, he'll go to great lengths to get a hold of them...
Other than not being suitable for homes with felines, Jack should do well in most environments. He's quiet, loving, friendly, adventurous, and likes people of all ages. We've not seen any separation anxiety issues and Jack has been crated for several hours at a time without any problems. He could go into a home as an only hound or he could go into a home with other dogs.
Curious, adaptable, and handsome - that's Jack! Drop a line to Denise if you think that Jack is the one for you.
