Never thought much about Jack Russells until I ended up with one. Now I realize they're the sweetest, funniest, bravest, most loving and independent little souls who just want to have fun. They play hard and they sleep hard and they're almost always smiling.
As a 73 year old Man, I have had many dogs inmy life. But the one that stays dear in my heart, was my very first Jack Russel which was given to me, as an unexpected gift, thus a totally unprepared surprise. I called him Toby. He was a wire haired dog, meaning corse coat. When he was 11 months old, we had a particular hot day, and I decided to take him down to the beach. At this stage, he had never set eyes on the ocean. The Designated dog beach that day was crowded, with hundreds of dogs, all shapes/sizes/temperment. . The water was 50 yards away, he took off in a dead straight beeline for the water, taking no notice of any other dog, he ran straight into the water where it was breaking and was submerged. Oh No, I thought, now he'll be scared of water forever. Eventuall y his small head surfaced above the water, he shook off the water, looked around to gain his bearings, and started to swim back and forth along the shore line just far enough out to miss the breakers. He did this for a good half hour, then came ashore, dug a hole in the sandy beach, rolled in it to dry himself off, and then laid down beside me. From that day onwards, there was no way ANYONE would stop him from swimming whever he got the chance. In his later years, he contracted Cancer, unbeknown to us, we had him checked out, but Vet did not have a clue as to what was wrong with him. We could see, he was in terrible pain from time to time as he just stood there and shivered uncontrolably. We gave him prescribed medication which seemed to reduce the shivering(pain). My son gave us a wading pool he had no further use for. I filled it up, jumped in everyday and took Toby in with me. He'd swim 8-10 laps, then come into my arms for a rest, then do it all over again for half an hour. The swimming seemed to be the highest point in his day. Eventually his illness became to severe, and I sought alternative advice. An Xray was taken, and a dark tumor identified near his bowel. I was given the price of operating with no views on outcome. I sought alternative advice, and took him to my daughter's Vet, 500 miles away, who promised to charge a reasonable fee. The day I took him in, he was suffering badly from the pain. Three hours later, the Vet rang to advise me the tumour had attached it'self to his Bowel, cutting the blood supply to that, and cause the effected part of the bowel to die. There was nothing that could be done to save him. Thus he was allowed to pass with recovering from the anesthesia. My regret to this day, as I could not say my goodbyes to him before he passed. I've been a sucker for Jack Russells ever since. I adopted a rescue later, who was also an absolutely brilliant Jacky, but he wasn't keen on the water as Toby was. This dog also contracted cancerous tumour which effected his appetite, and caused him to eat anything,at any opportunity causing excessive weight, eventually, things became to bad and he couldn't move around to much, and found it difficult to breathe, so again off to the Vets to say our goodbyes once more. This time I was really cut up far worse that the previous time, could not contemplate getting another. The sadness and depression took much longer this time to dissipitate. 9 months on, I felt I was ready for another. However, events due to COVID and the recovery, had caused a shortage of small dogs, and it proved very hard to find an adult to adopt. I eventually settled on a puppy, 6.5 weeks old. Have no regrets, though the toilet training is proving to be a handful. He's a delighful little chap.
Our dogs bring us so much joy but also so much pain when they pass. Thank you for sharing your story which brought tears of happiness to my eyes (swimming in the ocean) 🤣 and also tears of sadness at their passing 😢
I hope you have many happy years with your new JRT, our Male Jack, Fonzi is 9 yrs old soon, and the centre of our lives …. They are the smartest small breed by far, an£ the most lovable 👍🇮🇲👌💞🐶
My jack Russell is named brodie and is the love of my life. I've been free of cancer now and brodies been with every step of the way. It's uncanny how he knows when I have bad day, he always makes me feel good. And he saved my life when he knew my cancer came back. I'm under chemo right now and doing good because of my best buddy. God, thank you for brody......
I am so glad you have recovered. My daughter had cancer but has survived it too! I had a little jack named Max. He was a smart little dog. He would lay by me after I had surgery and only leave to go out or a bite to eat. Fiercely loyal too!
Our Bella would put her paw on our elbow or arm as we took her for a car ride, which she dearly loved! It was her way of saying "thanks for taking me with you!". She died 3 years ago, but we still feel her presence, especially in our car. She was our loyal navigator!!👍🥰
So cute! They are just the neatest little dogs. My parents and I lost our part Jack Russell Terrier/part Poodle "Maggie" almost 4 months ago. She got diagnosed with congestive heart failure/enlarged heart in Oct of 2020. She lasted just a little over a year on the medicine for it. She was there for me 6 years ago, when I lost my other two dogs. She really helped me a lot, during both of those difficult times. She lost my aunt in Aug of 2015, so I was there for her while she was grieving, and she was there for me as I was grieving. I still very much feel her presence too, as do I with my other two dogs as well. Maggie was one of a kind. She loved going bye bye. She went with my dad quite a bit to his mom's, the last couple of years of her life. She loved going to her grandma's. Than she went with my parents and I, on our out of town flea market trips, that we take about twice a year, and she loved it. Last year, we were able to go 4 times, so she went with us all 4 times. She was the first dog, we ever took with us on our out of town trips. So she was rotten lol! When we first got her, she didn't want anything to do with going bye bye. What it was is after my aunt passed away, she was afraid that if she went in the car, that we were going to get rid of her. My dad told me, he said we need to work with her a little bit at a time, and get her used to going car riding, and boy when she learned that she could trust us, she was ready to go every time we were heading out that door lol! Man I miss her so much!
They are fashion stylists - any black outfit is always taken to the next level with 1000 tiny white hairs, and care so much about you they’d never let you leave home without some.
My 15 year old Jack Russell trained easy.......Then he trained me, and took my heart forever. "Zap", I pray the Lord Jesus let's you live for many more loving , productive years. I am blessed to be your person❤🙏😁
My Jack Russell was the most sweetest little man, we miss him dearly he passed away years ago, Jake was special he would curl up with his head on my leg on the sofa at night, I was not well one night and had to call an ambulance he never left my side kept trying to lie on my tummy, ended up that I had a urinal tract infection I think he new there was something wrong, he was a quiet dog brilliant with everyone until one night I was sitting on sofa he was next to me and a man walked into our house, Jake jump of sofa and got between us his hair was up his back and his teeth were bared all I heard was this low growl, the man started walking backwards and he said he was sorry he got the wrong house, after this he went into kitchen and sat next to the treat cupboard, these wee dogs are very intelligent loyal and loving, we didn't replace him because we thought we would not get another like him ❤️❤️
My little Rumi is 4 months old, from a rescue group. After I brought him home my grown children were concerned that we were a poor match; I’m 72 and he’s high energy! Well, he’s adapted to my pace, I’ve become stronger and I’m still finding more ways for him to run. Our latest trick is for him to run circles around me while I hold a 25 foot rope attached to his harness. If I hold the rope over my head with my hand in a loop, I can stand still and not get tangled up or dizzy. When I drop my arm he winds all the way around me to a stop. Then I tell him to unwind, which he does, then stops to receive his treat! What a blast!
We lost our wee man Eddy 2 years ago as well he’s missed something shocking. Unfortunately I have a chronic illness and I sit with my legs up with my knees close to my chest it give me some ease from pain for a while and he used to jump up on the sofa and slowly walk up and gently put his head on my foot or my leg depending on what way I was sitting as if he knew I was in pain. As I said he’s gone 2 years but a few times since I have felt his head on my foot or leg as he did when alive We also have seen him out of the corner of our eyes for a split second I think he calls in to keep an eye on us.
During the Pandemic, I would do push ups at home and my Jack Russell, Chief, would get underneath me and roll on his back. He though I was playing 🤣. He also watched TV, religiously. RIP Chief Dog ❤️
My lovely little boy,Charlie,left me when he was 17 years old. I'm crying writing this. I loved him with every fibre of my body. Not sought a replacement for him. Hopefully at some point I will get another friend to keep me company.
My Jack Russell passed away last year (she was 14 years old). Ida fought for a long time, but my mother decided to put her out of her misery. I don't know why I watched this video, but it makes me happy to know that Ida really loved me.
Sorry for your loss.. My Best little Bud Dale lost his life after 16 yrs about 6 months ago.. I just recently got another Jack Russell and named Him Bud.. I love Jack Russell's they are great little friends and great for the Family.. Lots of love
It was a great moment when I realized my JR indicated he knew my name . He was watching a conversation I was having with a friend who said my name and my JR moved his head and looked at me as if he was waiting for my response. I'm convinced it shifted our relationship. I now know he understands far more than had originally thought and I understand his needs when he communicates them ... Right now he's snoring very loudly.
We rescue adopted a Jack Russell/Yorkie mix about 1-1/2 years ago, just before her 4th birthday. We quickly learned how dominant the Jack Russell genetics were over the Yorkie genetics. She's easily 90% Jack Russell. The only part of her that resembles a Yorkie is that her ears stand up most of the time. At first we weren't sure if she was even a little bit smart. As time passed, she learned to anticipate everything about our daily routines. We're retired and have a house that has multiple possible routes from any area to another. She knows by the time of day which route we're most likely to take. She DEFINITELY knows who Mom and Dad are and she gets very excited when one of us returns after leaving the house. If she's not on squirrel patrol she's in my wife's lap unless she isn't home, in which case I become the preferred second string doggie parent. Being a Jack Russell mix, she also exhibits the JR trait of being very stubborn and learning what SHE wants to learn.
My Jackie shows ALL these awesome traits ❤️mine’s 16 yrs old now. And she still shows so much love. Very deaf n sight fading but she finds me by sniffing my scent. Still so clever n adorable. She’s such a blessing. 🎉
I thought the tail wagging was an indication of fully charged and ready to have a good time😂🤣😂 Just got us a Jack, he’s about 7 weeks old now and my wife says he’s the coolest dog she’s ever had, and she’s had a lot of experience with mainly working dogs as opposed to “house” dogs. We’ve got a little farm on 8 acres with 4 other big dogs, horses, sheep, goats, chickens and a couple of cats. The cats are training him up now and he’s having a ball. Awesome little bloke he is👍
Our wee man Eddy had to be put to sleep just over 2 years ago as he had too many things wrong with him. I live with a chronic illness and I sometimes have to sit with my legs up on the sofa and he would jump up on the sofa and gently put his head on my leg as if to say I’m here for you since he past both my wife and I have seen him out of the corner of our eyes for a split second and a few times I have felt him put his head on my leg like he used to do we think he calls in to make sure we are ok.
It’s funny, I got my newest dog after losing my little dog that I loved more than anything. My new dog will never replace her, which I’m happy about. My JRT mix, Mavis is 100% different than my previous dog and I love her differences. She’s so so funny. Constantly throwing toys at me, rolling on her back, talking loudly, giving kisses and cuddling. JRT’s are so freaking funny and sweet.
My little rough haired JR, Twinkie, is the best dog I've ever had. Didn't know I could love a dog so much! She does the love nudge as another commenter wrote and she also lays on my arm and kinda holds my hand hostage. She loves her doggie massages and doesn't want my hand going anywhere!
You missed a big one. Our JRT normally has his ears perked up. However, when he sees someone he really likes or has missed, both ears appear to drop down and he looks like he’s trying to smile. He remains with that appearance until he gets right up close and begins to shower you with his affection.
My jrt is undoubtedly my best mate. She understands my vocabulary. Simple form. It's a great experience to bond with dogs. Best prize is to exchange love with them .
I have had the great pleasure to have been blessed by 2, Buddy and Rusty. Buddy was 13 when he passed because cancer behind the right eye, Rusty is a short legged powerhouse that has so much love for the wife and he is our 5year old kid. So hopefully he will live a long and happy life. When Buddy passed i was lost without him around to help me with my PTSD. My wife was aware of what was going on with me and she went on the hunt for a JRT where I live in Canada Alberta there are none to be found and if one is the price is out of this world so she called her son in Ontario and after about a year Rusty was found on a farm. Rusty is a 1 in a 1000 find as he is according to the Vet he is 100% JRT by blood tests. Anyhow he is a super dog that makes me and the wife happy and safe.
Our JRT, Axell, draws so much attention when we go out. He goes with us to every sports day and it's amazing how people come up to us and touch him. He is so energetic and loves playing with balls. Love Axell to bits!
I have 4 dogs currently. They are all angels , but of all the dogs I have had as companions I miss my Jack Russell BB the most. She was just tuned in from day 1. A joy to be around, and such a social animal.
Took me almost 20 years to talk my husband into a parson after having Chesapeake retrievers (who were wonderful), We have now had ours for 7 years and He's the only dog hubby wants going forward💞😄 Such a joy!
I've had 3 Jack Russells, fantastic dogs. They are great travel companions, love to hike and just be a partner in whatever the owner decides to do. I worked and lived on farms with horses and they were great around the animals. The great part of being on the farm, is that they were not leashed, got tons of exercise, and were quiet when we got home.
We have two jacks, they can be so naughty at times but so funny at other times. We have four grand children under the age or 4. Our jacks love them to bits.
They are an amazing breed. Couldn't imagine coming home and not having the magical & affectionate greeting whether I left home 10/60 or 5/24. Always the same ... We're getting ready for anr JR RESCUE girl. V . Soon . Praying to wish upon on the odd star or 2 (two), we won't have to wait much longer - Already been 3/12. Patience being it's own reward. This is a wonder breed . (one vowel from being something edible) I've had a few over my life. It was a great day when I realized he knew my name.! It was juz the way he looked at me. Felt like he was ready to learn to write.
We've had several Jacks over the years. Each one of them loved to go for rides in our diesel pickup. All we had to say was, "bye byes" and they got super excited. One of our Jacks was a runt. But, he loved playing with a full sized basketball. My favorite was Amisha. She lived to be 12 years old. She loved to go "shopping". She knew where the pet stores were. She died of pancreatitis 4 years ago.
I have a Jack Russell/ Sheppard mix and she is so full of personality and love! So smart too but very attached to me...everywhere I go there she is and she runs to greet & hug me when I get home🥰
One of the most notable ways my jack shows love is The love nudge..... Jackie often comes up to me and nudges my leg with her nose. Especially if she has brought a toy like a Frisbee, and laid it at my feet. she also does all 10 you mentioned... Maybe this is part of #5 or #4 that you mentioned.... But thought it was worth mentioning...
I have 3 Jacks, and they are so much fun. Luckily, i live on a big farm, they love chasing rabbits, skunks, and chickens. They live hunting. In the summer, i have to keep a water take full so they can cool off, the will hunt until they drop.
I first saw this breed on one of my trips to South Africa. When I came home I saw a neighbor walking with a pair of them. Couldn’t resist asking him which one was named Jack and which one was named Russell! Neither. He named them Eddie and Fisher! Great team!!
I rescued a Jack Russell but she was badly abused as a puppy. Fear faced she loves who she knows and attacks every one else. It is going to alot of training to bring her back Do the right thing rescued an animal They deserve a good life not horror each day. Love.love love
I have a 15 year old Jack that we rescued, lost in a February blizzard here in Michigan.. The vet said that she was about 11 months when we found her and she has never stopped thanking and loving us!!💜
Roscoe, my JRT, will jump straight up in the air for 10 minutes when we come back from even a short trip to town. I call it his Jack Russell In The Box
My sister looked after my Jack while I was away for 4 days. She phoned me on 3rd day saying Jack won't eat anything not even his food and treats. I told her to offer whatever she was eating. She phoned again an hour later and said she was eating a ham sandwich and Jack was watching so she gave him a bite and he ate the whole sandwich. Lol yeah he was missing me and my sister made another good friend
My pup is a mix, but has a lot of the "Jackie" traits and three video was spot on. She does a few things that are at least partially communicating love and trust, 1. She hides/buries her chew rolls in bed with me while I sleep...they end up under me. 2. Be in the same clothes I'm wearing while she sleeps, literally. 3. Along the same lines as in the clothes, she likes to sit on my shoulder for a variety of activities.
When Im lying on the couch my Jack Russell Parson will lie on me and use his paw to pat my face just like I pat his....his nails can scratch a bit but its so cute I don't mind. He loves to lick my face and ears. When I come home he yelps and runs around comes and jumps up to me then goes and runs around and yelps and will do this about 4 or 5 times until he calms down. Also he always checks what clothes Im putting on in the morning to get an idea as to what I will probably be doing that day, so smart. He's been playing fetch everyday for the last 12 years and still going strong.
I just love JRs. My last JR, Molly, was so funny. She used to cuddle up to me in the fold of my arm, by the elbow, and stay there for ages. I miss her so much and am now in the process of finding another...if I'm lucky. Great tips...thank you.
I rarely put a leash on my JR. We lived in the woods so everyone had their dogs off leash. Anyhow , when we hiked every once in a while he would hide from me sneak around back or front and run up and jump on me. It was fun, and he always thought (ha ha I got you). I would hide on him too. God I miss him🙂
I have two JRT’s that are part of my family. I adopted Jessie and Farlie (was Charlie) showed up at my house, I found the owner but she was elderly and couldn’t take care of him so I asked me to. His name was Charlie but my grand dogs name is Charlie so I changed his name to Farlie 😂. I feel blessed after watching this video because they both show me this love daily and trust me they get it back from me ❤️ I love my sweet boy and girl!
The oldest Jack Russell I have demands to get the u tube channel where Jack Russells are chasing rats. She's so engrossed and even rubs her nose at the screen thinking she can interact.
My husband went & got our Maggie who was supposed to be a chihuahua but pretty sure now she’s a JRT…very energetic,loving & always hungry…loves food! She’s just shy of 8 months old
I rescued my one year-old JRT Mandy one year ago. I thought I would read this as a familiar behavior among JRTs. When I am sitting on the sofa, she jumps behind me, paws on my shoulders and licks my neck, my ears, and If I lean forward she climbs on my back. in a very loving way, but also very insistent way, I can’t get away from her if I try. She is the most entertaining and affectionate dog I have ever owned.
I owned two and just lost my petey...I'm so lost without him. He went blind which changed his whole personality but when he could see...omg...what fun he was!!! I am getting my third from a breeder in the summer/fall. Miss you petey boy.
I currently am training, being owned by a 3 month old Jack Russel and Pit bull mix, The little dogs name is Chica and she is a stocky short legged soft thick furred dogs. She collects my shoes, only one of each pair and takes them to the bedroom or computer room. I am training her with German commands. She is exactly what this video says.
You mentioned the pointing gestures in the beggining. I remember when Dory was still a young pup she did not understand yet but it did not take long for me to figure out if I did a throwing motion she picked up on it very easy. My JRT stares at me when she wants something as if she expects me to read her mind. Mine loves to cuddle and litetally hugs by putting both both paws on each side of my neck and leans in
Mine stares at me too, so I stare right back, and then we have a staring match lol but you're right, it's like they expect you to know what they need. Very interesting.
@@David-hm9ic yes, mine will do that to but most of the time she stares at me and often she will make pointing jestures with her eyes but yes they are very smart, I can ask her where something or someone is and she will look for them like my daughter, the cat, the ball. She does seem to have some short term memory problems but I think it's the ADD most jack Russel seem to have😂
Our Parson Russell Terrier likes to “hold hands” with us! If I sit with my palm up, he puts his paw in my hand. I was very surprised & amused the first time he did it. But he does it quite regularly now & it’s obvious that he wants to hold hands. He is a super sweet “Velcro dog.”
My niece owned a jack russell since it was a puppy. I never grew up with dogs but I was told he could be very mean.But I went out of my way to bond with him and he grew to love me very much and he followed me everywhere around the house
Is it weird for Jacks to know your car?? I’ll be 2 mins down the street from my home and she waits at the window. When she sees my car she goes crazy. My grandmother lives with us and she tells us things Dakota does before we walk through the door. Also is excitement pees a Jack Russell thing?? This is my first Jack Russell.
Dogs have incredible hearing. An average dog can easily hear a quarter of a mile away. And, all cars have unique sounds to them, your Dakota most likely knows the sound of your specific car. I know our Jack Russell, Daisy, uncontrollably starts up about a solid 5 minutes before my daughter walk through the door.
@@jessicaaubrey9138 Yes, on occasion. My daughter is Daisy's person. Daisy would do anything for her. So, when she has gone on vacation or has come back on break from college, It's just to much for Daisy. And yes she tinkles. Not all the time when she is exited, but enough that we have a saying for her when she does it. We call it a "whoopsie Daisy"🙂
@@Vanessa-zu5tn my grandmother thinks I’m lying when I tell her it’s normal for Jack Russells to get excitement tinkles. And that’s sooo cute mine does the same. Even when I’m gone at work for 8-6hrs. I try to ignore her when I get home and that tends to work.
Mine gets dribbles but only for me and one of my friends. She's never peed in excitement for my girlfriend or anyone else. Just me and one other person.
One thing my Jack Russell does is this. I take her for walkies, when we are back home i give her a little chewy. But if I go to the shops, she will wait for me to return before she eats the chewy, blows my mind.
Isn't that crazy!! My" lil Moteyboy" wouldn't eat or drink if I'm not with him. He passed 2years ago in May. He was 19 1/2 yo. Loved that boy more than life. I always said I should of named him "Pinocchio" He thought he was a real boy!! He was to me....♡♡♡
My almost 1 yo Jackie does every single thing daily hahah. The thing that i appreciate the most is his protection. Whenever there is a stranger and he gets a lil too close to me or tries to interact with me my dog is ready to attack. He starts growling and shows off his teeth. Sometimes he even tries to jump and attack the person but I'm not allowing it. I'm amazed at how fearless he is at the cost of keeping me safe. I dont know how i deserved that kind of respect and love but im honoured to be his human. Another thing, that im not really sure is okay, is the huuge separation anxiety. Im literally his favourite person and if i am not in the room with him and leave him with someone (close friend or family member) he starts weeping and crying, that escalates into screaming. Im happy he's so loving and shows his affection towards me but I'm a lil bit worried about that.
Mine is a love sponge. He can't get enough of cuddling up tight to me. He also loves being cuddled n stroked by friends. He is though my dog through n through. He wants to be touching me all the Time.
It's probably the same as the cuddling point but when I let my boys in the house while I do my devotions or any time I'm sitting down, one of them is lowkey a mama's boy. He'll put his front paw on my leg and just lean onto my lap, enjoying his scratches and rubs. My other one likes to pounce on and nip at me. He's always ready to play and eat.
My Tinkers would be sitting like a sphynx, staring at me every morning when I woke up! Every single one of these on this list, she did with me and I am trying so hard not to cry right now!

Never thought much about Jack Russells until I ended up with one. Now I realize they're the sweetest, funniest, bravest, most loving and independent little souls who just want to have fun. They play hard and they sleep hard and they're almost always smiling.
True! That's why we love them so much! 💕
Same, we have a purebred terrier now 5 months. She is beautiful, best & smartest dog ever...😊
Yeah I've never had small dogs before but what my jack lacks in size she makes up for in character
@@jamesgraham5329 the Jack Russell isn’t a small dog. It might look small but it’s not
Cheers

As a 73 year old Man, I have had many dogs inmy life. But the one that stays dear in my heart, was my very first Jack Russel which was given to me, as an unexpected gift, thus a totally unprepared surprise. I called him Toby. He was a wire haired dog, meaning corse coat. When he was 11 months old, we had a particular hot day, and I decided to take him down to the beach. At this stage, he had never set eyes on the ocean.

We could see, he was in terrible pain from time to time as he just stood there and shivered uncontrolably. We gave him prescribed medication which seemed to reduce the shivering(pain). My son gave us a wading pool he had no further use for. I filled it up, jumped in everyday and took Toby in with me. He'd swim 8-10 laps, then come into my arms for a rest, then do it all over again for half an hour. The swimming seemed to be the highest point in his day. Eventually his illness became to severe, and I sought alternative advice. An Xray was taken, and a dark tumor identified near his bowel. I was given the price of operating with no views on outcome.

I am sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing with us. ❤️
Our dogs bring us so much joy but also so much pain when they pass. Thank you for sharing your story which brought tears of happiness to my eyes (swimming in the ocean) 🤣 and also tears of sadness at their passing 😢
I hope you have many happy years with your new JRT, our Male Jack, Fonzi is 9 yrs old soon, and the centre of our lives …. They are the smartest small breed by far, an£ the most lovable 👍🇮🇲👌💞🐶
Hey Im sorry, I've been there myself , But it was nice hearing your story, thank you
Loved hearing your story, Thanx for sharing ❤❤❤❤
My jack Russell is named brodie and is the love of my life. I've been free of cancer now and brodies been with every step of the way. It's uncanny how he knows when I have bad day, he always makes me feel good. And he saved my life when he knew my cancer came back. I'm under chemo right now and doing good because of my best buddy. God, thank you for brody......
I am so glad you have recovered. My daughter had cancer but has survived it too! I had a little jack named Max. He was a smart little dog. He would lay by me after I had surgery and only leave to go out or a bite to eat. Fiercely loyal too!
God bless you and your furbaby. I'm sorry the cancer came back
Miluji vás ❤ i vašeho jack❤
How did he know????
Westbrook?
Best dog ever jack Russell
Best dog ever
Oo jeaa
That’s true
I’ve had 4 Jack Russell everyone with a different character. Best dogs ever
I concur!
Jack Russell's are the best
Our Bella would put her paw on our elbow or arm as we took her for a car ride, which she dearly loved! It was her way of saying "thanks for taking me with you!". She died 3 years ago, but we still feel her presence, especially in our car. She was our loyal navigator!!👍🥰
So cute! They are just the neatest little dogs. My parents and I lost our part Jack Russell Terrier/part Poodle "Maggie" almost 4 months ago. She got diagnosed with congestive heart failure/enlarged heart in Oct of 2020. She lasted just a little over a year on the medicine for it. She was there for me 6 years ago, when I lost my other two dogs. She really helped me a lot, during both of those difficult times. She lost my aunt in Aug of 2015, so I was there for her while she was grieving, and she was there for me as I was grieving. I still very much feel her presence too, as do I with my other two dogs as well. Maggie was one of a kind. She loved going bye bye. She went with my dad quite a bit to his mom's, the last couple of years of her life. She loved going to her grandma's. Than she went with my parents and I, on our out of town flea market trips, that we take about twice a year, and she loved it. Last year, we were able to go 4 times, so she went with us all 4 times. She was the first dog, we ever took with us on our out of town trips. So she was rotten lol! When we first got her, she didn't want anything to do with going bye bye. What it was is after my aunt passed away, she was afraid that if she went in the car, that we were going to get rid of her. My dad told me, he said we need to work with her a little bit at a time, and get her used to going car riding, and boy when she learned that she could trust us, she was ready to go every time we were heading out that door lol! Man I miss her so much!
My jack russels name is also bella she also has 2 brothers pete and remy
@@zacharyvernon7989 my jack Russel is also called remy
Awe. I lost one after 16 years, just 2 years ago. They are the best
Mine is Bella also ok let's make a group
They are fashion stylists - any black outfit is always taken to the next level with 1000 tiny white hairs, and care so much about you they’d never let you leave home without some.
😂😂😂😂
Funny but true!
Hahaha! Yes it is so true. Tons of dog hair inside my car too.
My 15 year old Jack Russell trained easy.......Then he trained me, and took my heart forever. "Zap", I pray the Lord Jesus let's you live for many more loving , productive years. I am blessed to be your person❤🙏😁
My Jack Russell was the most sweetest little man, we miss him dearly he passed away years ago, Jake was special he would curl up with his head on my leg on the sofa at night, I was not well one night and had to call an ambulance he never left my side kept trying to lie on my tummy, ended up that I had a urinal tract infection I think he new there was something wrong, he was a quiet dog brilliant with everyone until one night I was sitting on sofa he was next to me and a man walked into our house, Jake jump of sofa and got between us his hair was up his back and his teeth were bared all I heard was this low growl, the man started walking backwards and he said he was sorry he got the wrong house, after this he went into kitchen and sat next to the treat cupboard, these wee dogs are very intelligent loyal and loving, we didn't replace him because we thought we would not get another like him ❤️❤️
My benji wants 24/7 and is always full of energy from the time he gets up till he goes to bed at 10oc with my daughter he's just turned 1yr 4mths jan
My little Rumi is 4 months old, from a rescue group. After I brought him home my grown children were concerned that we were a poor match; I’m 72 and he’s high energy!
Well, he’s adapted to my pace, I’ve become stronger and I’m still finding more ways for him to run.
Our latest trick is for him to run circles around me while I hold a 25 foot rope attached to his harness. If I hold the rope over my head with my hand in a loop, I can stand still and not get tangled up or dizzy. When I drop my arm he winds all the way around me to a stop. Then I tell him to unwind, which he does, then stops to receive his treat!
What a blast!
We lost our wee man Eddy 2 years ago as well he’s missed something shocking. Unfortunately I have a chronic illness and I sit with my legs up with my knees close to my chest it give me some ease from pain for a while and he used to jump up on the sofa and slowly walk up and gently put his head on my foot or my leg depending on what way I was sitting as if he knew I was in pain. As I said he’s gone 2 years but a few times since I have felt his head on my foot or leg as he did when alive We also have seen him out of the corner of our eyes for a split second I think he calls in to keep an eye on us.
My girl will gaze into my eyes for many minutes at a stretch. Never had another breed who enjoys quite so much eye contact.
During the Pandemic, I would do push ups at home and my Jack Russell, Chief, would get underneath me and roll on his back. He though I was playing 🤣. He also watched TV, religiously. RIP Chief Dog ❤️
Aaww! That so cute! 😍
My lovely little boy,Charlie,left me when he was 17 years old. I'm crying writing this. I loved him with every fibre of my body. Not sought a replacement for him. Hopefully at some point I will get another friend to keep me company.
Lost my best mate 14 tear old a month ago ...miss him dearly
My condolences I just lost my 16 yr old today. Watched him take his last breath. I miss him sooooooo much😢
I lost my Jackie at 17 also. Get another. There is another sweet dog that needs you!
He stands on my foot if I am sitting when he wants to be close and doesn't want to miss if I go somewhere without him! Jacks are soooo smart!
Yes they are!
So smart and the most lovely eyes!
My boy Charlie will be 17 later this month(Sept22), I cant remember feeling SO much Love from another Animal i my life....
My Jack Russell passed away last year (she was 14 years old). Ida fought for a long time, but my mother decided to put her out of her misery.
I don't know why I watched this video, but it makes me happy to know that Ida really loved me.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I’m really sorry... they are family.
I am so sorry to hear about your loss...
That’s always a tough decision, even if you think it’s the right one
Cheers
Sorry for your loss.. My Best little Bud Dale lost his life after 16 yrs about 6 months ago.. I just recently got another Jack Russell and named Him Bud.. I love Jack Russell's they are great little friends and great for the Family.. Lots of love
It was a great moment when I realized my JR indicated he knew my name . He was watching a conversation I was having with a friend who said my name and my JR moved his head and looked at me as if he was waiting for my response.
I'm convinced it shifted our relationship. I now know he understands far more than had originally thought and I understand his needs when he
communicates them ... Right now he's snoring very loudly.
That was really cute! He looked at you when he heard your name 🤗
We rescue adopted a Jack Russell/Yorkie mix about 1-1/2 years ago, just before her 4th birthday. We quickly learned how dominant the Jack Russell genetics were over the Yorkie genetics. She's easily 90% Jack Russell. The only part of her that resembles a Yorkie is that her ears stand up most of the time.
At first we weren't sure if she was even a little bit smart. As time passed, she learned to anticipate everything about our daily routines. We're retired and have a house that has multiple possible routes from any area to another. She knows by the time of day which route we're most likely to take. She DEFINITELY knows who Mom and Dad are and she gets very excited when one of us returns after leaving the house. If she's not on squirrel patrol she's in my wife's lap unless she isn't home, in which case I become the preferred second string doggie parent. Being a Jack Russell mix, she also exhibits the JR trait of being very stubborn and learning what SHE wants to learn.
My Jackie shows ALL these awesome traits ❤️mine’s 16 yrs old now. And she still shows so much love. Very deaf n sight fading but she finds me by sniffing my scent. Still so clever n adorable. She’s such a blessing. 🎉
She just won’t get away from me! Sometimes it gets annoying but I always try to remember that maybe it’s because she loves me! ❤❤
This is also called being a velcro dog🐕. Check out my video all about velcro dogs here ua-cam.com/video/ixbb9fX1Ef4/v-deo.html
My jrt is 11 now. The best years of our lives. It's definitely a strong connection .
I thought the tail wagging was an indication of fully charged and ready to have a good time😂🤣😂 Just got us a Jack, he’s about 7 weeks old now and my wife says he’s the coolest dog she’s ever had, and she’s had a lot of experience with mainly working dogs as opposed to “house” dogs. We’ve got a little farm on 8 acres with 4 other big dogs, horses, sheep, goats, chickens and a couple of cats. The cats are training him up now and he’s having a ball. Awesome little bloke he is👍
My Jack Russell Terrier is licking my face so much that my acne even started to dissappear 😂
He's so lovely and cute
Its very comforting everytime i came back from.work we're both excited to see each other at home
My jack Russell is still a puppy but does all these things
Love my Jack Russells 🌹🌹
Our wee man Eddy had to be put to sleep just over 2 years ago as he had too many things wrong with him. I live with a chronic illness and I sometimes have to sit with my legs up on the sofa and he would jump up on the sofa and gently put his head on my leg as if to say I’m here for you since he past both my wife and I have seen him out of the corner of our eyes for a split second and a few times I have felt him put his head on my leg like he used to do we think he calls in to make sure we are ok.
I'm so sorry for your loss.
It’s funny, I got my newest dog after losing my little dog that I loved more than anything. My new dog will never replace her, which I’m happy about. My JRT mix, Mavis is 100% different than my previous dog and I love her differences. She’s so so funny. Constantly throwing toys at me, rolling on her back, talking loudly, giving kisses and cuddling. JRT’s are so freaking funny and sweet.
My little rough haired JR, Twinkie, is the best dog I've ever had. Didn't know I could love a dog so much! She does the love nudge as another commenter wrote and she also lays on my arm and kinda holds my hand hostage. She loves her doggie massages and doesn't want my hand going anywhere!
Same for me I didn't know I could love a dogs so very much.my Boris is very much loved by all who know him.He also does the love nudge.
Best dog breed ever🥰
You missed a big one. Our JRT normally has his ears perked up. However, when he sees someone he really likes or has missed, both ears appear to drop down and he looks like he’s trying to smile. He remains with that appearance until he gets right up close and begins to shower you with his affection.
Yes, JRT's are affectionate dogs. You can really feel their love. 🐶
Same! Our boy does this- precious:)
My jrt is undoubtedly my best mate. She understands my vocabulary. Simple form.
It's a great experience to bond with dogs. Best prize is to exchange love with them .
I have had the great pleasure to have been blessed by 2, Buddy and Rusty. Buddy was 13 when he passed because cancer behind the right eye, Rusty is a short legged powerhouse that has so much love for the wife and he is our 5year old kid. So hopefully he will live a long and happy life. When Buddy passed i was lost without him around to help me with my PTSD. My wife was aware of what was going on with me and she went on the hunt for a JRT where I live in Canada Alberta there are none to be found and if one is the price is out of this world so she called her son in Ontario and after about a year Rusty was found on a farm. Rusty is a 1 in a 1000 find as he is according to the Vet he is 100% JRT by blood tests. Anyhow he is a super dog that makes me and the wife happy and safe.
My little guy was born with a heart murmur but I still love him to pieces. He's a great fit with our older Jack Russell and loves us all.
Our JRT, Axell, draws so much attention when we go out. He goes with us to every sports day and it's amazing how people come up to us and touch him. He is so energetic and loves playing with balls. Love Axell to bits!
We lost our jack Russell 3 years ago l miss him terribly he had cancer tumour all over his body ...
I have 4 dogs currently.
They are all angels , but of all the dogs I have had as companions I miss my Jack Russell BB the most.
She was just tuned in from day 1.
A joy to be around, and such a social animal.
Yes they're fun to be with
Took me almost 20 years to talk my husband into a parson after having Chesapeake retrievers (who were wonderful), We have now had ours for 7 years and He's the only dog hubby wants going forward💞😄 Such a joy!
I've had 3 Jack Russells, fantastic dogs. They are great travel companions, love to hike and just be a partner in whatever the owner decides to do. I worked and lived on farms with horses and they were great around the animals. The great part of being on the farm, is that they were not leashed, got tons of exercise, and were quiet when we got home.
We have two jacks, they can be so naughty at times but so funny at other times. We have four grand children under the age or 4. Our jacks love them to bits.
You have 2 jacks!? That's really cute! They can play together 💕
Our baby does all of these things. She is the most loving dog.
My other Jack Russell was named moonpie and we miss him so much after he died
They are an amazing breed. Couldn't imagine coming home and not having the magical & affectionate greeting whether I left home 10/60 or 5/24. Always the same ... We're getting ready for anr JR RESCUE girl. V . Soon . Praying to wish upon on the odd star or 2 (two), we won't have to wait much longer - Already been 3/12. Patience being it's own reward. This is a wonder breed . (one vowel from being something edible) I've had a few over my life. It was a great day when I realized he knew my name.! It was juz the way he looked at me. Felt like he was ready to learn to write.
We've had several Jacks over the years. Each one of them loved to go for rides in our diesel pickup. All we had to say was, "bye byes" and they got super excited. One of our Jacks was a runt. But, he loved playing with a full sized basketball. My favorite was Amisha. She lived to be 12 years old. She loved to go "shopping". She knew where the pet stores were. She died of pancreatitis 4 years ago.
I have a Jack Russell/ Sheppard mix and she is so full of personality and love! So smart too but very attached to me...everywhere I go there she is and she runs to greet & hug me when I get home🥰
We also have a Jack Russell and she made it clear numerous times that I am her favorite person and I love her 👍🤘🇿🇦💜
Right?! Jack Russell's are really cute!
One of the most notable ways my jack shows love is The love nudge..... Jackie often comes up to me and nudges my leg with her nose. Especially if she has brought a toy like a Frisbee, and laid it at my feet. she also does all 10 you mentioned... Maybe this is part of #5 or #4 that you mentioned.... But thought it was worth mentioning...
That is so true. The nudge!
Mine nudges my hands because she wants them on her at all times lol
I’ve seen them sob with convulsive gasps, like lost babies, upon losing their human parents. ❤❤ Incredibly heartbreaking. 😔
I have 3 Jacks, and they are so much fun. Luckily, i live on a big farm, they love chasing rabbits, skunks, and chickens. They live hunting. In the summer, i have to keep a water take full so they can cool off, the will hunt until they drop.
I have a Jack Russell i really love her she never hurt any human i hope she gonna live with us a good long life❤
Yes we hope so too! ❤️
, I have a Jack Russell and she shows and more love than other dogs I Love my baby so much 💋❤️
I first saw this breed on one of my trips to South Africa. When I came home I saw a neighbor walking with a pair of them. Couldn’t resist asking him which one was named Jack and which one was named Russell! Neither. He named them Eddie and Fisher! Great team!!
I rescued a Jack Russell but she was badly abused as a puppy. Fear faced she loves who she knows and attacks every one else. It is going to alot of training to bring her back
Do the right thing rescued an animal They deserve a good life not horror each day. Love.love love
@@jameswhite72 My Elsa is the same, She is 7 and slowly learning how to be a dog.
I have a 15 year old Jack that we rescued, lost in a February blizzard here in Michigan.. The vet said that she was about 11 months when we found her and she has never stopped thanking and loving us!!💜
Very nice coverage. We have a Jack Russell and everything in the video is true of him, very adorable family dog
I love my little girl so much she is a love jack russell xx
Roscoe, my JRT, will jump straight up in the air for 10 minutes when we come back from even a short trip to town. I call it his Jack Russell In The Box
My sister looked after my Jack while I was away for 4 days. She phoned me on 3rd day saying Jack won't eat anything not even his food and treats. I told her to offer whatever she was eating. She phoned again an hour later and said she was eating a ham sandwich and Jack was watching so she gave him a bite and he ate the whole sandwich. Lol yeah he was missing me and my sister made another good friend
My wire hair JRT, Sherman T Potter, saved my life when I had a stroke and I was critical. He's my protector
My pup is a mix, but has a lot of the "Jackie" traits and three video was spot on. She does a few things that are at least partially communicating love and trust,
1. She hides/buries her chew rolls in bed with me while I sleep...they end up under me.
2. Be in the same clothes I'm wearing while she sleeps, literally.
3. Along the same lines as in the clothes, she likes to sit on my shoulder for a variety of activities.
Thank you for sharing this to us 🥰🥰
When Im lying on the couch my Jack Russell Parson will lie on me and use his paw to pat my face just like I pat his....his nails can scratch a bit but its so cute I don't mind. He loves to lick my face and ears. When I come home he yelps and runs around comes and jumps up to me then goes and runs around and yelps and will do this about 4 or 5 times until he calms down. Also he always checks what clothes Im putting on in the morning to get an idea as to what I will probably be doing that day, so smart. He's been playing fetch everyday for the last 12 years and still going strong.
I just love JRs. My last JR, Molly, was so funny. She used to cuddle up to me in the fold of my arm, by the elbow, and stay there for ages. I miss her so much and am now in the process of finding another...if I'm lucky. Great tips...thank you.
I rarely put a leash on my JR. We lived in the woods so everyone had their dogs off leash. Anyhow , when we hiked every once in a while he would hide from me sneak around back or front and run up and jump on me. It was fun, and he always thought (ha ha I got you). I would hide on him too. God I miss him🙂
I have two JRT’s that are part of my family. I adopted Jessie and Farlie (was Charlie) showed up at my house, I found the owner but she was elderly and couldn’t take care of him so I asked me to. His name was Charlie but my grand dogs name is Charlie so I changed his name to Farlie 😂. I feel blessed after watching this video because they both show me this love daily and trust me they get it back from me ❤️ I love my sweet boy and girl!
They had the same name that was cute! You are so lucky to have them.
Our Max would bite my fingers.
I have Jack Russell. I adopted in August.
He’s called Rambo. Took over my house the minute I got him home 😁
Aaw! He is so cute!
@@PetsAplenty yeah he is he’s got attitude lol
Gonna have to train that out of him tho, they’re known to be territorial
I have a jack Russell!!
The oldest Jack Russell I have demands to get the u tube channel where Jack Russells are chasing rats. She's so engrossed and even rubs her nose at the screen thinking she can interact.
My husband went & got our Maggie who was supposed to be a chihuahua but pretty sure now she’s a JRT…very energetic,loving & always hungry…loves food! She’s just shy of 8 months old
JRS's are very energetic. She's so cute!
I have a jack chi and he is so awesome! He talks to us and has an amazing character and absolutely adores my four daughters 💙
Aaww! That's so cute!
Great to know about my Jack! She is a great dog. Thanks for the great information!
I rescued my one year-old JRT Mandy one year ago. I thought I would read this as a familiar behavior among JRTs. When I am sitting on the sofa, she jumps behind me, paws on my shoulders and licks my neck, my ears, and If I lean forward she climbs on my back. in a very loving way, but also very insistent way, I can’t get away from her if I try. She is the most entertaining and affectionate dog I have ever owned.
Yes ,yes all of the above 😊!!
I’ve had 4 in my life ……wonderful dogs🐶🐶🐶🐶
They are really wonderful dogs! 🐶💕
I owned two and just lost my petey...I'm so lost without him. He went blind which changed his whole personality but when he could see...omg...what fun he was!!! I am getting my third from a breeder in the summer/fall.
Miss you petey boy.
I am sorry for your lost. Good luck for getting another one 🐶
@@PetsAplenty thank you so much!
# 1 FOLLOWING YOU FROM ROOM TO ROOM.
I currently am training, being owned by a 3 month old Jack Russel and Pit bull mix, The little dogs name is Chica and she is a stocky short legged soft thick furred dogs. She collects my shoes, only one of each pair and takes them to the bedroom or computer room. I am training her with German commands.
She is exactly what this video says.
I love Jack Russell's such awesome dogs
That's true!
Thank you ❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
You mentioned the pointing gestures in the beggining. I remember when Dory was still a young pup she did not understand yet but it did not take long for me to figure out if I did a throwing motion she picked up on it very easy. My JRT stares at me when she wants something as if she expects me to read her mind. Mine loves to cuddle and litetally hugs by putting both both paws on each side of my neck and leans in
Mine stares at me too, so I stare right back, and then we have a staring match lol but you're right, it's like they expect you to know what they need. Very interesting.
@@icynndmaybe they thinks they're Jedis😂
I tell mine to show me what she wants. She will make one lap around me and lead me to what she wants. Smart little critter!
@@David-hm9ic yes, mine will do that to but most of the time she stares at me and often she will make pointing jestures with her eyes but yes they are very smart, I can ask her where something or someone is and she will look for them like my daughter, the cat, the ball. She does seem to have some short term memory problems but I think it's the ADD most jack Russel seem to have😂
Our Parson Russell Terrier likes to “hold hands” with us! If I sit with my palm up, he puts his paw in my hand. I was very surprised & amused the first time he did it. But he does it quite regularly now & it’s obvious that he wants to hold hands. He is a super sweet “Velcro dog.”
Sitting on my feet and on the feet of anyone who she decides is a friend of the family
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Cute
My niece owned a jack russell since it was a puppy. I never grew up with dogs but I was told he could be very mean.But I went out of my way to bond with him and he grew to love me very much and he followed me everywhere around the house
Now he follows you everywhere HAHA
They are all true facts!
Best dog in the world .Would fight a Lion for you ❤
My Jack Russells do practically everything on this list except for going into the dirty laundry
Is it weird for Jacks to know your car?? I’ll be 2 mins down the street from my home and she waits at the window. When she sees my car she goes crazy. My grandmother lives with us and she tells us things Dakota does before we walk through the door. Also is excitement pees a Jack Russell thing?? This is my first Jack Russell.
Dogs have incredible hearing. An average dog can easily hear a quarter of a mile away. And, all cars have unique sounds to them, your Dakota most likely knows the sound of your specific car. I know our Jack Russell, Daisy, uncontrollably starts up about a solid 5 minutes before my daughter walk through the door.
@@Vanessa-zu5tn yes, she does the same as your daisy!! 5 minutes before I walk in. Jack Russell are amazing Dogs. Does yours get excitement tinkles?
@@jessicaaubrey9138 Yes, on occasion. My daughter is Daisy's person. Daisy would do anything for her. So, when she has gone on vacation or has come back on break from college, It's just to much for Daisy. And yes she tinkles. Not all the time when she is exited, but enough that we have a saying for her when she does it. We call it a "whoopsie Daisy"🙂
@@Vanessa-zu5tn my grandmother thinks I’m lying when I tell her it’s normal for Jack Russells to get excitement tinkles. And that’s sooo cute mine does the same. Even when I’m gone at work for 8-6hrs. I try to ignore her when I get home and that tends to work.
Mine gets dribbles but only for me and one of my friends. She's never peed in excitement for my girlfriend or anyone else. Just me and one other person.
I knew it!
I've had my Jack Russell for 12 years now. I love him more than I can say. All I want to know is that he will outlive me. I'm 64. ❤🩹
I’ve never loved a dog as much as my JRT Mila! She’s human I swear! ❤❤
I am a chronic epileptic and my Jack Russell will lie in my bed when I have had a seizure,he's a .little star
Aww! That is so heartwarming. 😢
I. Lost. My. Little. Jack. 2. Weeks. Ago. I’m miss. Him. So. Much. The. House. It’s. The. Same. Without him. X
One thing my Jack Russell does is this. I take her for walkies, when we are back home i give her a little chewy.
But if I go to the shops, she will wait for me to return before she eats the chewy, blows my mind.
Mine wont eat unless i eat, she likes to eat together lol. And if we go on vacation, she doesnt eat until we get back. Its bittersweet
Mine does the same thing, which is says a lot considering eating is his favorite thing to do! I love my little guy. 🐾
Isn't that crazy!! My" lil Moteyboy" wouldn't eat or drink if I'm not with him.
He passed 2years ago in May. He was 19 1/2 yo.
Loved that boy more than life. I always said I should of named him "Pinocchio"
He thought he was a real boy!! He was to me....♡♡♡
❤❤❤Jaxon is my jack and he often expresses his love i😂n all the ways described. Jaxon know when I'm sad as well as when I am happy
They are really lovable dogs! 🥰
Our jack Russell sits on daddy's lap while he drives 🚗 Roscoe has to be so close
My sweet baby girl was a Jack. I miss my sweet baby girl🐶❤
My almost 1 yo Jackie does every single thing daily hahah. The thing that i appreciate the most is his protection. Whenever there is a stranger and he gets a lil too close to me or tries to interact with me my dog is ready to attack. He starts growling and shows off his teeth. Sometimes he even tries to jump and attack the person but I'm not allowing it. I'm amazed at how fearless he is at the cost of keeping me safe. I dont know how i deserved that kind of respect and love but im honoured to be his human.
Another thing, that im not really sure is okay, is the huuge separation anxiety. Im literally his favourite person and if i am not in the room with him and leave him with someone (close friend or family member) he starts weeping and crying, that escalates into screaming.
Im happy he's so loving and shows his affection towards me but I'm a lil bit worried about that.
Aaw! He really love you that much! 💕
You're 💯 % right. I have a little Jack Russell. Daysi is almost 4 months old and everything you said is like if you know her 😅. She is the best ❤️
Thanks for watching our video! 😍❤️
Mine is a love sponge. He can't get enough of cuddling up tight to me. He also loves being cuddled n stroked by friends. He is though my dog through n through. He wants to be touching me all the Time.
They are quite clingy and like following their owners around.
Their wink 😉 is so cute
I got a black and tanned Jack Russell cross and i love him to bits best decision my wife made when picking him up
It's probably the same as the cuddling point but when I let my boys in the house while I do my devotions or any time I'm sitting down, one of them is lowkey a mama's boy. He'll put his front paw on my leg and just lean onto my lap, enjoying his scratches and rubs. My other one likes to pounce on and nip at me. He's always ready to play and eat.
My Tinkers would be sitting like a sphynx, staring at me every morning when I woke up! Every single one of these on this list, she did with me and I am trying so hard not to cry right now!
Aaaw! That's so cute. You're lucky!
@@PetsAplenty I was lucky.....until my mother forgot to tie my little guardian angel up one morning. 😢 It's part of why her and I don't speak anymore.
I have a Jack russell Terrier pit bull mix
