Best Tricks:
Getting what he wants from Maisy by picking up something useless (e.g. pieces of bark), pretending it's something terrific, making Maisy jealous, casually dropping it, and snagging what he really wanted when Maisy drops it and goes for his decoy.

Arrival Story:
I was vaguely considering adopting another cat and went to the shelter to look around. I couldn't resist checking out the dogs as well. Most of them were barking their heads off and leaping around like maniacs. Then I came to a cage containing this lovely dog with an adorable speckled face. He was leaning against the concrete wall of his cage, and when I stopped, he just looked up at me with an expression that very clearly said, "Please get me out of here". I stuck my hand through the wire, and he directly up to me. As I started scratching under his ear, he slowly slid down the wall and rolled over into the classical "please rub my belly" pose. And I was hooked!

Bio:
Even the few, foolish people I know who say they don't really like dogs really like Jack. How could they possibly resist such a silly sweetheart?
