About Kiwi a Jack Russell boy

**KIWI** Kiwi is a seven-year-old purebred Jack Russell Terrier with a big personality. He loves chasing balls, going for car rides, walks, and running in the sun. Like many Jack Russells, he can get possessive over toys, so if he lives with or visits other dogs, it's best to put toys away. Kiwi has never had to share his things before, so he can be protective of them. He would do best as the only dog in the home, but with careful management of toys, he can live with other dogs without problems. Kiwi enjoys car rides and is always ready for an adventure. At home during the day, he keeps himself busy chewing on an elk antler or napping. In the mornings and evenings, he likes spending time with people. Kiwi came to us from an overcrowded shelter after his owner passed away and no family members could take him. He arrived with a limp, but after a week of eating a high-quality diet, taking joint supplements, using a muscle builder, and going on gentle, longer walks, he is moving much better. We ask that his adopters continue with this food and supplement routine to help him stay healthy and active. Kiwi should have his hip checked by a vet, but we are happy with his progress and believe his stiffness was mostly due to being kept in a small cat cage at the shelter. Kiwi is affectionate, curious, and adventurous, and he bonds quickly with people. Because of his strong prey drive, he needs a home without small animals, including cats. He would do well with older children who are experienced with dogs. **Adopting Kiwi** To adopt, please use the link below. One of our volunteers will review your application and follow up with you to ask questions, address any concerns, and determine whether you are a good match for this pup. If a match is made, the next step will be a meet-and-greet. Please use a computer to complete the application, as tablets and cell phones may disrupt the process. Kiwi has transitioned to a human-grade diet that avoids kibble and focuses on a healthy, canine-specific feeding regimen. We will educate his adopters on proper diet and nutrition. The adoption fee for Kiwi is $495 and includes his vaccines, rabies, and a microchip. Kiwi is Neutered. www.rompinpawsrescue.com
