Jack Russell Terrier Owned by Vinnie Jones: Celebrity Pet of the Week

This week we will feature Vinnie Jones with his cute dog pet, Jack Russell Terrier. Vinnie Jones Pet - Jack Russell Terrier 2

Vincent Peter “Vinnie” Jones (born 5 January 1965) is a British actor and former professional footballer. He has capitalised on his tough man image as a footballer and is known as an actor for his aggressive style and intimidating demeanour, often being typecast into roles as coaches, hooligans and violent criminals.

There was a story about Vinnie Jones being saved by his dog. It was said that Vinnie Jones was once so depressed, he planned to shoot himself – but his dog saved him from pulling the trigger. The soccer star-turned-actor battled a spell of depression more than 10 years ago and decided to end his life in woodland near his home in the U.K. But his pet Jack Russell terrier followed him – and Jones abandoned his suicide mission when he caught sight of the dog’s pleading look. He says, “I was tired of causing people stress… It was a cheap way out. But I did think everyone would be better off if I was out of the way and I stopped causing them trouble.”

This week we will check Vinnie Jones with his Jack Russell Terrier friend.
