Wicket~

Description

Wickett — The Sweetest Little SidekickWickett is a playful, happy boy who absolutely adores his foster siblings — big and small. He’s still a tiny bit unsure about crossing thresholds, but with gentle coaxing he’ll hop right over like a champ. For a dog who was outside his whole life he’s doing great with potty training and has only had two accidents inside. He’ll also wear belly bands without any issue (and he doesn’t try to pee in them).He loves spending time outside in a fenced yard, exploring and playing, but he also walks nicely on a leash. Wickett is friendly with men and women, and he’s good with kids who understand how to treat a dog kindly.His one little quirk: he needs to be picked up securely. If he feels unstable, he gets scared — but once he knows you’re holding him safely, he melts right in.Wickett is the perfect mix of sweet, silly, and sensitive, and he’s ready for a family who will love him gently and cheer him on as he gains confidence.This dog is part of a group of Jack Russell Terriers rescued from a Texas hoarding/breeding situation and is currently beginning the transition into rescue care. While we are still getting to know their individual personality, one thing is certain — they deserve the chance to experience safety, comfort, and life as a beloved companion.Many dogs from situations like this have spent much of their lives with limited socialization and little exposure to normal home environments. Because of this, they may need time, patience, and understanding as they learn routines, build confidence, and adjust to a new way of life.These dogs are expected to thrive in homes willing to offer kindness, consistency, and compassion while allowing them to decompress at their own pace. Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Age: Estimated adult Rescue Intake: Texas hoarding/breeding situation Adoption includes spay/neuter, vaccines, and appropriate vetting, harness, and leashWe believe every dog deserves the opportunity to feel safe, loved, and part of a family — and this dog is no exception.
