[Help] Am I Making A Mistake?
Hello Folks.
After my whole life of wanting a dog... I find a local rescue, and find a puppy, and get approved.
It's a 14 week old Male "Jack Russell Terrier Mix"
I am a first time dog-owner. While I admit I am highly motivated to do training and go build an obstacle course in the backyard, my family unit and I are mostly couch-potatoes outside of occasional nature outings etc.
I've watched Dogs 101. Read C.R.Brown "An Owners Guide to... JRT" and looked at numerous websites for breed traits and temperaments.
It looks like the JRT is an independent dog. While possessing velcro traits... It seems to still be inherently independent.
This coupled with the high-energy makes me concerned that it's the wrong dog for our family unit.
The breed that seems to fit best with our family unit is Boston Terrier (Low Energy. Velcro. Good Family Dog. Quiet)
I'm just lost.
Thank you for reading this drivel.
