About Jasper

Some folks notice my size and physique and guess there's a Decker Rat Terrier in my family tree. Others see my exquisitely curled tail and think there's Basenji in my background. I say I'm just Jasper, 25-lbs. of fearless and friendly lap dog. I'm 6 months old, so I may end up weighing 30 or more lbs., but I'm gonna make sure I can fit on your lap one way or another! Whatever I do, I do it with enthusiasm--whether it's roughhousing with my canine buddies, snuggling with the humans, or hunting for kitties or rabbits to chase. In fact, I have been known to try to climb short chain-link fences to get to my target. While I may bark a bit to announce someone's arrival, overall I'm a fairly quiet, mellow fellow, who enjoys sleeping in under the covers right next to my human. Foster mom declares me to be gentle with kids, not at all destructive, house-trained, and an excellent passenger in the car. A favorite activity is hiking, where I can climb on fallen trees, wade into a creek, and maybe follow the scent of some forest critters. Energetic exercise keeps me happy and well-behaved.
