Arlington Pet of the Week: Jeff

Becky's Pet Care

This week’s Arlington Pet of the Week is Jeff, a snaggletoothed Rhodesian Ridgeback/Boxer mix, whose amusing name “fits his personality to a tee.”

Here’s what Jeff’s owner, Ben, had to say:

Jeff is a rescued, snaggletoothed 9-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Boxer mix, or as we call him, “a wonderful brown dog.” Jeff’s very human-sounding name fits his laid-back and personable demeanor to a tee, and he can often be found sprawled lackadaisically by his window-side bed. Don’t be fooled by his age or his chill-vibes, though, because Jeff can still hold his own – chasing squirrels, frisbees, or any myriad of other menacing rolling/jumping/running objects.

Famed among friends and family as “the best behaved dog,” Jeff is often welcomed as part of special events. Jeff was most recently honored by taking part in his parents’ wedding party – donning his finest doggy-bow-tie and finding his way into a few photos in Bon Air Park. Jeff is also always a favorite at nieces and nephews birthday parties.

After living nearly 5 years in Arlington, Jeff has recently relocated just south of the border in Alexandria, but still considers himself an active part of the Arlington-pup scene – making frequent appearances in Shirlington.
