Buddy | Dogs | Jack Russell Terrier

Buddy, Jack Russell Terrier, DOB 07.07

His Story: Buddy grew up in a tweeny family, but they were busy and following a separation it was clear Buddy had his own needs.

Salient points:  Buddy needs confidence behind him and sensitivity to his terrier makeup. He needs to build trust before you get too up close and comfortable with him. A terrier experienced person knows the terrier picks up on our vibes and relaxes according to our reassuring aire? Nippy can be, but a rariety; absent in trusted situations.

Advert: Buddy has the most wondrous colouring with a broken to wire coat..so a head turner. Born in July 07 ..yes 0707..007! He has found himself in rescue due to a marriage break up, but also having had owners who weren't confident around terriers generally so tended to keep him away from situations where his terrier ways came to the fore i.e. visitors. His enthusiasm in meeting certain dogs was a concern, but certainly in our care Buddy has gone from strength to strength with people that 'get him'. He meets dogs well though may occassionally grumble under his breath. But yes Buddy is of the ilk where grumpy old man might be laid on his shoulders as his fur greys.

Terriers; you love their character and work with it or shy away.  We are delighted to have this little man with us, but sooo wish more for him. Terrier people have a sense of humour and lack "the blame consciousness"..lots of forgiveness and analysis goes along the lines of 'OK so you don't like that my lad, we'll manage it a slightly different way next time..come on lets have a walk!' So Buddy is looking for an owner that doesn't take his serious character too seriously. An owner that lightens him up, understands Buddy so wants to have fun; so wants to love and trust, but is a little wary until the signs are clear..no worries lets play!
