Happy Ending Stories - Jack

We adopted our puppy form the Sacramento City Shelter on Front Street. He has been a great addition to our family. We named him Jack. We were initially told that he was thought to be a Pitbull mix with maybe Sharpei. The vet said that he thought he was definitely part Sharpei, but doubted if he was part Pitbull. We have a friend that raises different breeds of dogs and thought that Jack had the physical and behavioral characteristics of a Besnji. So after some research we believe that Jack is indeed part Basenji. Anyway he rarely ever barks, he lets the other dogs do that, and he loves to hang around people, but does not like to be overwhelmed with attention (these are characteristics of the Basenji). He also likes to pick up anything he can find and hide it. Everyone has fell in love with him and we are so happy to have found him. I am sending a picture of him as well.

Best Regards,
James

Jack
