Floyd ~ Jack Russell (on trial 26/7/2018)

My name is Floyd and I am a gorgeous white 18 month old male Jack Russell Terrier with a beautiful orange face. I am very healthy and weigh about 6 kg.

I believe I would be a wonderful therapy dog for someone with a disability (any age but certainly not essential) and who would love to have me as their best mate, would want me on their lap lots as I just sit and snuggle, and would allow me to sleep with them and keep them warm – I just lay in bed all night without moving.

I love humans and kids of all ages and other dogs and just want to be loved with cuddles, hugs, kisses and kindness. I don’t know what I am like with cats as I have never lived with any. I am currently living with 5 other small dogs and get on well with all of them but there are just too many - I would prefer no other pets or maybe 1 at the most because I want all the attention.

I am toilet trained and go in and out from the house to the back yard via a doggy door (with a plastic flap), and love food including the occasional smacko, nightly dentastix and puppy milk. This puppy milk gives me so much energy – yum yum yum. I sit on command, lay down and roll over. I am a very obedient little guy and don’t believe in fighting.

I walk on a lead and travel well in a car. I don’t bark very often and am good when left at home, but when you get back home I get very excited and expect me to jump up and down at your feet and maybe even undo your shoe laces.

I must go to a home where I sleep inside every night.

My foster carer Don has told me that he is not in any hurry to adopt me out and that he will look after me until I find the perfect home no matter how long that may take. He is so wonderful to me and I know that I give him a lot of joy too. Between you and me I know that he will be extremely upset when I leave.
