Adopt Jack-dee

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Tall, dark and incredibly handsome, Jack dee is approximately 4–5 years old and has the softest, gentlest soul. Since arriving with us he has settled beautifully into his new surroundings, taking comfort in kind people, quiet reassurance and little adventures with his new friends. Jack dee loves being out exploring the world at his own pace, taking in all the sniffs and enjoying the simple things in life. He has also spent time in foster where he settled wonderfully, showing just how much love he has to give once he feels safe. Like many dogs who have experienced abandonment, Jack dee can struggle at times with being left alone and can be reactive on lead when feeling worried. His foster has been working hard on this and he is already making lovely progress. He just needs patient humans who understand that trust, confidence and security take time to grow. Busy roads and traffic are still quite overwhelming for him and we believe he may have previously lived a quieter semi rural life. Despite this, Jack dee is trying so hard every single day. He bravely walks near busier areas, checking in with his humans for comfort and reassurance when he feels unsure. One of the sweetest things about him is how he gently leans in for cuddles when he needs a little confidence boost. Underneath it all is a loving, sensitive boy who simply wants to feel safe and loved. With kindness, routine and continued encouragement, Jack dee is going to absolutely blossom in the right home. As a lurcher, Jack dee would adore access to a secure enclosed field where he can stretch his legs, run freely and enjoy life the way lurchers do best. He would also benefit from ongoing training classes once settled to continue building his confidence and social skills. Jack dee could potentially live with respectful children aged 10+ and may also suit living with a calm, robust female lurcher of a similar size. All introductions will take place at the centre.
