He is very smart. His best tricks are to twirl in a circle and to lay down and put his head on the floor...makes him look sad and pathetic! He also knows other tricks but those are his favorites.

Arrival Story:
I answered an ad for purebred Jack Russell Terriers and paid $200 for a mutt, thinking I was getting a JRT. The moment I held him and looked at him he wagged his tail and kissed my face! I was hooked and I had to have him!!

Bio:
Willy is my first puppy I raised and means so much to me. He and I have a very close and strong bond and he is my best friend & my baby boy! We've been through a lot and I'm so lucky to have this beautiful, sweet little dog in my life! Willy got really sick February 2013. After a few days of seeing several different vets, he was finally diagnosed with blastomycosis, a rare and serious fungal infection. Usually this infection is treatable but it had spread to his brain and he was in a lot of pain and was suffering. So we had to say goodbye to our beloved Willy. I miss him so much, he brought so much love and joy into my life. He was my heart dog and there is a huge hole in my heart. :( I cannot believe he is not here anymore. A week ago he was fine and acting like his normal self. And now he is just gone. :( I love you so, Willy.
