Seeing Jack Jack for the first time hurt my heart. He didn't act like he was in pain, but his eye is startling. I'm hoping a vet will look at it soon.
Jack Jack is a submissive boy, and when I first reached for him, he drew back and got low to the ground. When he realized I only wanted to pet him, I could see his relief. He sat for treats and enjoyed scratches. His coat is soft and handsome, and he's a sweet dog. I hope he finds a home where he's safe, loved, and properly cared for.

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
