Dog Loves Bungee Jumping, Owner Of Bungee-Jumping Dog Reports

BEND, OR—Pointing out how the 4-year-old Jack Russell terrier was already shaking with anticipation, avid bungee jumper Isaac Branch confirmed Thursday that his dog also loves bungee jumping. “Rocko’s obsessed with bungee jumping—he does it all the time!” said Branch, 25, who described the 15-pound canine as a “total adrenaline junky” who gets so riled up by just the sight of the bungee harness that he often urinates all over the floor. “Once we’re on the bridge, he goes absolutely crazy with excitement and starts running [away from me] so fast. I can barely get him to hold still while I strap the GoPro to his little head, which he also loves. I think his favorite part is the free fall, because his muzzle pulls back into this huge, tight smile.” At press time, Branch had reportedly set up a GoFundMe for Rocko following an unsuccessful jump.
