Jack, Jack Russell terrier mix

Jack is an adorable male Jack Russell terrier mix being cared for at PAWS Chicago.

Here's what Jack's friends at PAWS Chicago think of him:

Jack is a lap dog in training. This one year old Jack Russell mix is very slow to warm up to new people and environments, because he is deaf.
