Notes from Just Jack's caretakers:
He is sweet and loves to be held by people he trusts. He needs time to trust and become comfortable in new surroundings, and with new people. He has a lot of nervous energy and some significant separation anxiety, although this has improved since his foster family has been working through it with him.

In our foster home we [have] found her to be very smart and capable. She has gotten along with most dogs, and has even lived peacefully with cats... We believe with a dedicated home, along with training support from the rescue, she could be a fantastic dog.
