Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is BONGO - his life has been very hard until now. He is 10 yrs old and has lived in a dark dungeon of a barn alone for years. His owner died and a family member has fed him a few days a week for a couple of years. He has been there 10 years. Fate brought someone to the property one day and she heard the dog making noise. She inquired and was able to find out who was feeding the dog. He said please take the dog, we don't want him. The dog was immediately rescued from that place and brought to the vet, who pronounced him healthy. BONGO was not socialized with other dogs and so would be happiest to have a home where he will be THE ONLY DOG. NO CATS! He was neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. He tested HW negative. Now he is staying with the lady who found him, but she has too many dogs to keep him - he needs a home. The lady who has him says he is VERY SWEET and loving with her, but doesn't like other dogs. He learned very quickly to be housetrained, is learning to play with toys and is just a very good boy. If you would like to give BONGO a home for the rest of his life please respond by email - almosthomerescue@gmail.com. Apply to adopt here -- http://www.almosthomedogrescue.org/FL849form.html

PLEASE READ!
1. Jack Russell Terriers need homes with a secure fence. Underground fencing is NOT safe for a Jack Russell.
2. Jack Russell terriers are bred to be hunting dogs and are not suited to apartment or condo life. The hunting instincts and prey drive cannot be trained out of these terriers and they will stay active in this way all their lives.
3. We do not adopt Jack Russell Terriers to families withe small children (under 6) as terriers are not patient with the antics of a small toddler.
4. Jack Russell Terriers can not safely coexist in a home with cats, birds, ferrets, hamsters, rabbits, etc, as terriers were bred to hunt and can kill small animals. They are hunters and they never give up.
5. Please keep an open mind and consider your lifestyle both today and 10 years from now before you apply for a dog that may not be a good fit for the long run.
