Meet 'Diago,' a Playful Jack Russell Terrier

Submitted by Associated Humane Societies 

This is Diago, Newark Patch’s Pet of the Week. Diago is a fun-loving and happy little Jack Russell. He walks very nice on his leash and is people-focused and very affectionate. He allows you to pick him up, play with his tail and handle him head to paws. Diago is playful and enjoys interacting with people while he plays with his toys. He has a happy and well-adjusted personality and is very gentle. He takes treats softly from your fingers and allows you to pet him and handle his food bowl while he eats. Diago was introduced to another dog and he was excited but well- behaved. Diago is a fantastic little dog who would make a lovely family dog and companion.

 If you think Diago might be the dog for your family and would like to give him a home for the holidays, contact Associated Humane Societies’ Newark shelter with his ID # (121347).  The shelter is located at 124 Evergreen Ave. The shelter’s phone number is 973-824-7080, and adoption hours are Monday-Friday, 12pm to 5:30pm, Saturday and Sunday, 12pm - 5:00pm.
