About Kiwi a Jack Russell boy

**INTRODUCING KIWI Senior Dogs and Friends. Arlington, WA. 360.386-2393 www.smallpupsrescue.org DO YOU LOVE THE JACK RUSSELL? Kiwi is looking for a stable, loving home where he can settle in for good, and this boy has personality!! Kiwi will melt your heart once he is settled and you have created a bond! Kiwi is housebroken, independent, and smart. He just needs someone to call family. This sweet 7-year-old Jack Russell mix wants to be your best friend. He's a great companion, happy to relax all day and always up for a walk when you are. Kiwi enjoys car rides and loves playing fetch, so if you have a ball, he'll be ready for fun. He'll curl up in your lap while you work from home or watch TV, and he rarely barks. For homes with kids, Kiwi does best with adults. Typical of the Jack Russell breed, Kiwi has a strong prey drive and should not live with cats or other small animals. Kiwi's health needs are easy to manage, but it's important to be aware of them. He has some spine issues that sometimes cause pain and a little bladder leakage, so he wears a belly band. He takes daily medication to help with discomfort and does best with regular, short walks instead of long or very active outings. Other than this, he doesn't need any complicated medical care. His routine mainly involves giving him his medication, monitoring his mobility, and ensuring he's comfortable. When Kiwi first left the shelter, he reacted to other dogs on leashes and sometimes guarded his things. Thanks to training, he now walks calmly past other dogs every day. Because of his past, he'll do best in a home without other dogs. We'll provide training materials, behavioral support, and guidance to help you continue making progress. We're always here to answer questions or offer advice. Kiwi's spinal issues cause some nerve compression, which leads to pain and occasional dribbling from lack of bladder control. He's comfortable wearing belly bands, has only occasional leaks, and is fully housebroken. If you have a fenced yard, like going for walks, have a big heart, and love animals, you might be the perfect match for this quirky senior Jack Russell Terrier who likes to take things at his own pace.
