A Jack Russell Terrier Female named Gumdrop



Gumdrop is presently Adopted
My name is Gumdrop and I was under the mistaken impression that it was an honour to be the first dog featured on the Adoptees page. But someone just burst my bubble and told me that being first means that you are the dog that has been at Animatch the longest! I read my bio and although the person who wrote it didn’t pull any punches, I asked if I could say a few words for myself. I think there is a family out there who really needs me. Don’t feel bad about my past, what’s most important is my future and I want to make a difference in my new family’s life. I know there is someone who really needs a friend like me, someone who is looking for a lifelong companion. I promise to keep you safe by alerting you to strangers. I promise to keep you fit and healthy by getting you out and walking. I promise to bring a smile to your face. The only promise that I ask of you is to let me share your life for the rest of my days! I’ll come through for you if you come through for me!
So, here I am. If you think you can give me the home that I need, don’t be shy. Fill in that Adoption Form. I can prove to you what a gem I am.
Love, Gumdrop xoxoxo
Gumdrop is a two-year-old, Jack Russell Terrier who came to us as a stray. This feisty, little, JRT needs a guardian who is experienced with the breed. Jack Russell’s are not the breed for a first family dog. Gumdrop, like all JRT’s, has boundless energy and will need lots of exercise. Gumdrop is a confident dog who will benefit from Obedience Training Classes. Jack Russell’s tend to have an assertive nature and must be trained and handled properly. Gumdrop definitely needs a fenced yard to keep her safe; she is a hunting dog and is hardwired to chase her prey. The pursuit of squirrels is her “raison d’être”. If you are a dog sports enthusiast, Gumdrop would definitely enjoy and benefit from the challenge of agility, fly ball, or even Frisbee. If you understand and love the unique nature of the Jack Russell Terrier, Gumdrop would be happy to oblige. Please fill in the on-line Adoption Form if you would like to adopt Gumdrop.

what a sweet JRT! <3
Les terriers sont tellement drôles et celui-là a beaucoup d’expressions variées dans son regard. Il a l’air intelligent et très communicatif. J’aimerais bien avoir toute une meute, comme César!
I have a jack myself and looooovvveee my doggie. My dog Sky, is the most affectionate puppy there is. Jacks are super intelligent and very cuddly dogs. They are high energy and do need lots of exercise. They do calm down with age, mine is over 3 now and is alot calmer. They are so smart and they are quite a catch.
I met Gumdrop and honestly she is the sweetest thing! She is so quiet. All she wants is love and to sit with you
Love the pics
If I had I yard I would definitely want to give her the home she so desperately needs. I sincerely hope she finds her human soulmates soon.
xx’s & cuddles to Gumdrop
Is she very active with other dogs?
I have a female jack who is 1 year old now and would like to see if she gets along with Gumdrop. Is this possible to have the two dogs meet?
Kaylie, the first step in the adoption process would be to complete the on-line Adoption Form.
She is adorable, if i had her I would take super good care of her!!
She is absolutely beautiful! Jacks are truly special dogs! Very loving and very intelligent! I have put in an application for her, I hope she is still available! She could be the perfect playmate for my 5 year old female Jack named Shadow!
So happy to see that she’s on trial! Best of luck Gumdrop!
Je suis vraiment heureuse que tu sois en essai. Bonne chance à toi ! gros calin xx
Good for you precious Gumdrop. Be a good girl!
Wow…... your on Trial….. hope it works out for you Gumdrop
every furbaby should be part of a loving home….... will keep my fingers crossed for you…..... best of Luck…......
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY to all
