Rehoming Jack Russell

[DJM]

Hi,

Sadly I have to write my first post asking if there is a new home for my Jack Russell. Archie is 3 ½ neutered and chipped brown and white dog that we have had from the breeders in Marlborough since he was a pup.

He is, and always has been, fully vaccinated and is extremely loyal and has a wonderful character. However, he is not too fond of my new baby and as a result I have to re-home him for both sides sake.

He would make an ideal companion for a couple or indeed a single person.

I live in the Bath area and would be willing to meet half way.

Any advice also very welcome.

Thanks for taking the time to help

Have you put a note up in your vet practice????

I would also contact breed rescue; they vet prospective owners and you'll be able to get him into a home with previous terrier experience.

Will his breeder not have him back? That'd probably be my first port of call.

Is he housetrained? Quite to be left? etc

Thank you all for you help on this issue.

I have contacted the breeders and the vet, but sadly to no avail as yet.

WelshRareBit, he is very house trained, indeed no "indescrections" since being a pup. He is more than content to be left alone and will quite hapilly plonk himself in his basket when called upon to do so. In many respects, he is a perfect little companion, it is just a shame that he doesn't get on with me baby.

Thanks again.

Why wont your breeder help? They should be the first person to take him back if they're reputable/responsible.

In what way doesn't he like the baby? Does he turn nasty every time he's near him/her or is he just not used to it? Can't you work around the problem as it could be he's feeling left out - not saying you're doing it deliberately but he may not see it that way if it's been just you and him before.

Thanks to all for your help. I am delighted to say that we have found a fabulous family for him and he's doing well.

Thanks again.
