Los Angeles - As the eight division boxing champion Manny Pacquiao trains for his third match with Timothy Bradley in April, his loyal and active dog Pacdog is seen running with him at Griffith Park and Pan Pacific.

The dog is ready to be famous, just like its owner.

The Jack Russell Terrier who has always joined the People?s Champ in his trainings in the USA, is ready to accept endorsement deals. Jun Aquino, the artist who has immortalized Pacquiao in paintings, said that Pacdog might sign a contract with a dog food company.

?He is a natural entertainer. He is trained and he knows how to interact with people,? said Mike Quidilla, the official photographer of Manny.

Pacdog came into Pacman?s life in 2008 when his childhood friend and trainer Buboy Fernandez gave the dog to him. Since then, the energetic dog has joined the boxing champ in all his trainings as his running mate. Manny?s trainers say no one can keep up with the dog in running, somehow pushing Manny and his training team to the limit.

The Jack Russell Terrier is a small breed that is said to have been fox hunters. Jack Russells have ?tempered aggressiveness? that makes them an ideal companion of active people.
