Sammie
Meet Sammie, he is an 8 year old castrated male Jack Russell Terrier that was brought to the Bath Cats & Dogs Home in January 2006, as a stray. Sammie is a friendly lad once he gets to know you however, he does require an extensive period of getting to know.
He is extremely loyal and playful - loves tennis balls but squeaky toys scare him! He needs someone that understands Terriers and their wilful and stubborn traits – so would not be suitable for a first time dog owner and would prefer to live in an all female household as he is simply more used to women.
He is a very sweet lad that has a lot to give to the right person or someone that is willing to seek further help from our behaviourist on a 1-1 session. Therefore, he needs someone that lives locally in order that they are able to visit him on a regular basis – as he is possessive over his toys and bed.
He loves going for walks and is generally good on the lead loving to frollic in the fields but tends to hug the fences due to insecurity. He has to be rehomed as the only dog but we have no history with regards to cats and he is seeking a new home where any children are aged 16+.
He possibly has been mistreated as he is distrustful of new people and doesn’t like his rear end being touched. Can you offer Sammie a new home? Can you give our active lad the training he needs to educate him to be a super companion?
