My new guy. Well daughter's shepherd and husky but dog doesnt leave my side when I'm home. It took 6 months to re-train him and remove most of his bad habits.

I think he needs a deeper dog bowl! 😃

How old is he, and what were some of his bad habits?

He has a huge water bowl. He does like to dump his food out and eat it off the floor. He just turned 2. He was agressiive when people would come over to the house. Would eat the wife's house plants. Scratch doors, get on counters, chew on carpet, let himself out of the sliding glass door, on walks thought he should pull you around the neighborhood, chase bunnies out of the yard (way out of the yard) and a bunch of others. PLus, in the 2nd picture, he just had got a bath and was not happy about. Dogg will swim endlessly in the Gulf of Mexico but bring a hose and shampoo out and he hates it.

Two decades ago, a friend of my wife found a Jack Russell terrier in the road. It had been struck by a car and was terribly injured. He took it to a vet and assisted as the vet stitched up the dog. When healed the dog had one eye and a weirdly shaped right side of his head. He named the dog One-Eyed Jack. We just called the dog Jack. True to his heritage, Jack was Jack Russell energizer doggie. He lived to chase tennis balls. If there was no ball near, Jack would find the tiniest piece of tennis ball hide and drop it at your feet. If you didn’t pick it up and attempt to throw it, he would yowl with frustrated anxiety. Everyone loved Jack. You just couldn’t help yourself.

Great story.

Hearing about your story reminded me that my ex in laws always had Jack Russell Terriers.
I wonder if people find this strange or not.
They got their first one and named it Jake.
After Jake eventually died, they bought another Jack Russell Terrier right away, named him Jake as well.
After that one passed.
They did it again.
Right away bought another JRT, named him Jake.

Is this common?

It doesn’t sound like a lucky name, that’s for sure.

My cousins always had beagles. The males were all named Bullet, and the females were all named Pokey.

Must have made their vet’s life hard.

The first two lived over 10+ Years
And the current one is 10+ as well.

So I guess it really is a thing. Using the same name.
