All energy, all love – Jack’s the full package!
Jack is a high-energy Border Collie who thrives on activity and stimulation. He has previously lived with older children and teenagers and could happily do so again in the right home. Jack has also lived with cats and can be playful indoors, but he may chase outdoors, so any resident cat would need to be confident and dog-savvy. On the lead, Jack can be reactive to other dogs, but he has enjoyed positive off-lead interactions with dogs at the centre. He is housetrained, travels well in the car, and is comfortable being left alone for a few hours.
History
Jack was handed into the centre due to a change in his owners’ circumstances.
Re-homing Criteria
Jack can be nervous when meeting new people, particularly men, and will need a calm, patient owner willing to take the time to build his confidence. He could live with older children or teens, a confident, dog-savvy cat, and possibly another friendly dog with careful introductions. Jack requires an active, breed-experienced home—ideally with someone who enjoys hiking, agility, or flyball. A secure garden is essential, as he tends to chase when off-lead and still needs work on his recall.
His new family must be committed to supporting him with his lead reactivity and helping him feel more at ease around strangers.
Jack has so much potential – he just needs the right person to help him shine!
