Billy

Jack Russell Terrier

Notes:

This is Billy, he is about one year old and came to us from
a shelter. Mr Billy is a happy go lucky high energy jack, 
he has the sweetest face and is very nicely marked, he 
does have long legs and stands about 15 1/2 inches tall at 
the shoulder and is 18 lbs. He is very smart and knows sit, 
shake, gives 5 with the other paw and can roll over! He is 
very vocal but is learning Not to bark in the house,, he has 
had no accidents and runs to the door when he needs to go 
out,, he sleeps very nicely in his kennel and stays in the 
kennel quietly when I put him in for quiet times. He does 
need lots of exercise and would be a great dog to do fly ball 
with or Jack Russell trials,, he is very fixated on toys or 
balls. He loves my teenage son and seems to love kids, 
but might be too rough with very young children. 
He likes other dogs and wants to play all the time!
This pet is up to date with routine shots.
This pet is already house trained.
This pet has been altered.

Billy, our latest foster boy.

He's been with us only a couple of weeks.Can't believe he may
already get adopted. Lucky boy is sweet and deserves a great
forever home. He's still just a pup and has a whole lifetime of
loving to give to his people, and he'll be happy to be their puppy.

Billy loves to fetch, though he doesn't deliver too well! He drops
things nearby. He hasn't learned to "give" or release.
Though he does understand leave it! He adores having his tummy
rubbed once he's come to trust you he'll be quite loving and submissive.
Billy is a very vocal fellow. Patience and gentle persistence will be
needed to help him learn to bark appropriately. He communicates his
desires through various barks; I have to go out, ball is stuck
somewhere - help please!, Toss the ball please, let's play, hey, she
stole the ball, my chew stick, my toy... oh yeah - he's such a little
boy still, he does whine and yelp with a squeak!! I think once he
settles down and learns how to communicate nicely with his family
they'll find him to be quite a little talker in the group.
He's enjoyed the safety of playing freely in a fully fenced large
yard frolicking with two female dogs Mia, a 1 yr old Jack Russell
Terrier and Daisy a 10 month old black Labrador pup. They run
obstacle  courses and fly off the end of the deck when playing
hide and seek with each other.

















Though sometimes Mia will get too grumpy, often the three of
them will eat and drink from the same bowl. This is one special
little pup. He needs lots of attention, lots of exercise and
structure plus plenty of chew time. Best kenneled when alone
for his own safety. Billy will often go into a kennel on his own
when he wants to take a nap or a little rest or to chew his
rawhide stick.
Once he warms up to a person and feels he can trust them he's
very cuddly and happy to curl up on a lap or beside someone on
the couch to be scratched and stroked or to quietly chew his
rawhide. Likes to tear things apart, stuffed toys, socks and
what have you. Best toy though is a squeaky ball - will keep him
thrilled for hours - though will keep you busy too.
Controlling barking with spray bottle of water works very well
with Billy. Used just when barking is excessive. I'm very happy
with the technique.

Walk in the garden.blogspot.com; a photo blog

It's our belief the Earth on which we live is truly an Enchanted Garden. Nature has a magical way of creating and sustaining itself, usually with an incredible abundance and variety of expression. This is actually the natural way of the world we live in, despite human attempts to rally against or fight or ignore nature.

A Photo-Blog with a fun and quirky flavor, including some digital artwork, inspirations, experiments and the stories behind them giving some insight into how a couple of happy gardeners view our backyard and our world!
Visiting is just like taking a Walk In The Garden

We planned our landscaping to reflect our appreciation for the natural world and the desire to observe nature up close by making use of native plant varieties, allowing seed bearing plants to stand as feed for wildlife and creating a healthy micro-environment for them. Sometimes even the garden visitors: mainly birds and squirrels leave seeds and bulbs that surprise us later on!

I enjoy sharing some of the magical photographs and images I'm grateful to be able to capture and create. Other fun photos and stories highlighting the rest of our life in the garden will inevitably show up here too. Road trips, camping, fishing, biking, our dogs and our rescue foster pups and their antics, are the likely topics!

I celebrate nature, the natural world and the human spirit immersed within it. My passion is in sharing the simple reminders the garden and nature share with me. Through my photographic adventures I've learned something we humans often overlook; We are a part of Nature, not apart from it! That we are human spirits immersed within this magical, miraculous and beautiful world. Understanding this fundamental truth has been changing my life in lovely ways. I look forward to and welcome further developments this focus provides and hope you might be inspired to reconnect with the natural world around you!
