Malina was a stray in the Northwest suburbs and has been fostered for three months. She is currently living with three other male Jack Russell Terriers. She originally had no interest in anyone or anything. Since staying here the boys have helped her remember that she is a dog. Since we do not know her background I can only assume that she was crated, and given little training or socialization toward anyone or anything. She does enjoy being petted, but she is not a cuddly lap dog. She is working on a few habits like barking at airplanes, the sprinkler and vacuum cleaner.

She is OK with other dogs, but can also play a little rough like JRT’s can sometimes do. Malina would be best in a home with someone that knows the breed. She has not shown any aggression here and appears to be submissive toward other dogs. She has a strong prey drive and would not be good with cats or other small animals. Malina loves to be outside and likes to chase rabbits and squirrels. She would LOVE to live on a large acreage property.
