About Jack - 5 Month Old Kelpie X Staffy
Meet Jack!
Are you looking for a confident, fun loving, cheeky character to fill your home and your heart with love then don’t scroll by this little champion.
Jack has had a tough start to life, fracturing his back leg in an accident. But he doesn’t let that stop him in any way. He is super happy, super fun and definitely on the mend. He is a wonderful boy who rests in his crate when told to without a fuss and loves coming out for free time and gentle play and walks on lead for toilet breaks.
About Jack
Jack has shown to be very confident, not scared of anything this world has to offer. He has a lot of Staffy personality with his wiggly butt and hilarious prance mixed with the kelpie smarts he is the ultimate adventure pup. He loves playing with the hose and toys and our 2 doggies. He is a star at the beach and loves a swim. This boy will be non stop fun for the right family.
He also has a very calm chilled out side and loves to snooze on your lap or hang out on the deck watching the world go by. He walks beautifully on lead as he loves just to be near you. Jack is crate trained and toilet trained and sleeps all night without a fuss. Jack will grow into a medium size dog around 20kg of bouncing fun.
Jacks ideal family:
⭐️Jack would love an active family/couple/single
⭐️Kids must be over 8 as he will be very bouncy.
⭐️Being so young he will need someone home a fair bit. Part Time workers ok.
⭐️He would love another high energy doggo to play with and learn from.
⭐️Jack will love to attend Dog training to use his smart side and grow him into a 5 star family member.
‼️Jack is still undergoing rest and recovery for his fractured leg. Which involves crate rest, lead toileting, supervised free time so he doesn’t over exert. He will need final X-ray on the 7/11/25 and will need to go to a DRN approved vet for his final check.
‼️To be considered to adopt Jack you must be willing to continue rest and rehab. Be able to provide a safe secure environment for him to do so. Slowly increase his exercise and free time and walk duration to build his strength up.
Jack is currently in foster care in Mallabula, NSW. His adoption fee is $600 and he is desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas, ticks and worms and microchipped.
Jack is available for adoption to the Lower Hunter region (Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Port Stephens, Maitland and Cessnock) plus Central Coast and Sydney.
