We had to send Jessie to a new home a while back.... 
Anyway...we've been on the lookout for a new dog to join the house.
Finally found one. :thumbup:
Here he is...and the kids decided to keep the name the breeders gave him:
Mity Dog
He's an honest-to-goodness true-blue dyed-in-the-wool thru-and-thru Jack Russel Terrier...inside and out!
Scrappy, Scruffy, Peppy, Excitable, Trainable, Attentive, Jump-in-your-Lap, perfect-for-a-house-full-of-little-boys Dog.
We got him from Leap-n Jack
He's 10 months old already and pretty much full grown.
And he has been a great addition to our wild-n-crazy home...all 4 boys love him....!
So many people tried to talk us out of a Jack Russell...."Oh, they're wild"...."They are too active"...."Hyper"...."Destructive"...."Hole Digging Crazies"...."Mess-makers"....and so on.
But the funny thing is....all of the above applies to my kids already...
:foot:....in our home he's just "another one of the boys"...he fits right in. My wife is a stay-at-home mom...and my 2 youngest are not in school yet...so there's no end to the attention the dog will get.
The first day, the kids tried to mishandle him a little...and he let them know quickly not to....
.....and since then they've had "an understanding".
Hopefully over the next few weeks/months...the training we are doing will settle in for good and he'll be good to go. He's got a great bark...and, like any terrier, is not afraid to use it!
Give a warm welcome to Mity Dog!
