Readers' Pets: Ollie the Jack Russell Terrier
Introduction: Ollie is part of a pack that includes five kids and two adults (Mom & Dad). He is "dad's dog" and when the kids say I like him better I tell them its because he listens to me and when I call him he always comes. He is the perfect fit to our active family. The kids entertain him as much as he entertains them.
Home: Richmond Hill, Queens, New York City.
Age: 18 months
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Personality: Weighs 15 lbs but thinks he weighs 75 lbs. Extremely shy and cautious outside of the house and with strangers; pushy and and assertive in his safety zones. Very intelligent and a good problem solver. He will do anything in his power to be at my side. Loves a good game of chase and keep away. While a lot of dogs are eager to please humans, he has only the desire to please himself. He is very obedient and listens very well. His one weakness is cats, he loves to chase cats. Here kitty-kitty....And while I'm very cute please don't try and pet me, I'd much rather play ball!
Likes: Food, toys, car rides, chasing cats and anything else that will run away from me. Being with the family.
Dislikes: Being petted by strangers; not getting to go out with the rest of the "pack"
Favorite Toy: Any stuffed animal.
Favorite Food: Anything you are eating; any and all meat products.
Trivia: Ollie was named after Mets pitcher, Ollie Perez, after beating the Yankees in inter-league play.
