About Jack

Jack is a 1.5-year-old male Shepherd mix with a high drive, who is obsessed with balls and work-oriented. He's looking for a four-legged partner who matches your intensity, drive, and discipline. Whether you're training for a marathon, crushing an obstacle course, or living a lifestyle that demands structure and purpose, Jack is ready to meet you stride for stride. Jack thrives with a job to do and lives to work with his person. His love language is a tennis ball and clear direction. He's a fast learner who already knows sit, wait, touch, and down, and he's currently working on polite greetings and impulse control. On leash, Jack is a focused and responsive companion, especially when there's work to be done. This is not your average pet—Jack is best suited for someone with experience handling high-drive working breeds, particularly Shepherds or similar types. While Jack can ignore other dogs when he's in work mode, he should be the only dog in the home. Due to his high prey drive, he’s not suitable for homes with small animals, livestock, or young children. If you're looking for a canine partner who’s as committed and driven as you are—someone to train with, run with, and challenge yourself alongside—Jack is ready to report for duty.
