Welcome to Gaia! ::

jack russell X ???

He's a cutie <3 it was great of you to save him, hope he finds a home soon biggrin

Yeah, I thought he looked a bit like a Jack Russell (aka: Parson's) mix myself, which if what I told his new owners was my guess. Yep, Moze went home with his new family yesterday... I miss him, even though we hardly had him!

I (gently) turned down the first lady who wanted him. She was an older lady and said "I'd really like him as a lap dog." I told her Moze was SMALL like a lap dog, but really was VERY VERY energetic and did NOT sit on laps. I told her I thought he probably wasn't a good match. She persisted, "but he LOOKS so cute. I think he will be just fine." (Yeah, THAT'S a good reason to pick out a dog. He LOOKS like a lap dog, even if the foster family TELLS you he is just NOT one. rolleyes ) I finally told her that I was waiting to hear back from a family but that's I'd call her if it didn't work out. It wasn't a complete lie. I WAS waiting for a family... they just hadn't called me yet! Hee hee!

Finally I did hear from "the" family. 2 actually! In the end both were great but one was waiting to get approval from their landlord, and I was worried about keeping him so long HE got too attached so that it would be a big stress on him to leave. So I went with the family that was appropriate AND could take him sooner. They are a young couple with a little boy. Normally I wouldn't reccomend the breed to someone with a toddler, but Moze was a remarkably UNnippy pup and very patient with little ones.
