Mila is a 2 year old terrier/hound mix (likely JRT & Beagle) weighing approx 27 lbs. She loves her humans very much and is very playful and affectionate with them.
Mila did not start her life off in a bad way but she did miss out on training, boundaries and socialization. For this reason, Mila has spent time with a professional trainer who has fallen in love with her. Unfortunately, there are limits to the number of dogs a person can have!
She loves the outdoors and play time! She’s a very active girl and would do great with a dominant larger dog, she can be too rambunctious for a small dog.
Mila is an excellent girl at home when you have to go out, just make sure you have the perfect window for her to neighborhood watch from!
She is obviously a high energy girl but likes nothing more than to be tucked in beside her person on the couch!! She gives great hugs and kisses!!
Mila will require an experienced owner and home without children under the age of 7. She loves kids but is still learning boundaries. Her adopter will be able to take advantage of some professional advise from her trainer in order to keep Mila improving. Training consistency will be key to keeping Mila on track with her progression.
Mila is currently being fostered in Newmarket, ON.

Additional adoption info
Welcome!
By adopting, you will effectively be saving 3 dogs' lives. Adopting a dog from JRNC means an open space for a new one at a JRNC foster home; and fostering a new dog means that there will be a new space available for a dog at an affiliate shelter.
Although Jack Russell is in our name, many of the dogs JRNC rescues are small mixed breed dogs. The dogs JRNC rescue often come from puppy mill seizures or high-kill shelters that euthanize dogs who are not quickly adopted.
All dogs available for adoption are spayed/neutered (if not old enough, arrangements will be made), and have all up-to-date vaccinations.
It is the mission of the Jack Russell Network Canada, Inc. ("Jack Russell Network Canada", "JRNC") to provide temporary shelter, veterinary medical care and other care for stray, abandoned, abused, injured, neglected and surrendered Jack Russell Terriers (JRTs, JRT crosses and similar terriers) in need of human assistance and care, for finding appropriate new homes for the dogs, and to promote the well-being of Jack Russell Terriers in general and to encourage the spaying and neutering, as well as the identification and registration of Jack Russell Terriers and of other domestic pets in general.
a) Dogs may be adopted by persons over the age of 18 years, are resident in any Province of Canada who have completed a satisfactory telephone interview, received positive veterinarian and reference checks and have had a home visit with a positive recommendation;
b) Dogs may be adopted by individuals or families living in owner occupied homes including condominiums and rented homes including apartments subject to the approval of their landlord;
c) Dogs may be adopted by families with children 4 years and older. Exceptions may be made where the adopter has children under the age of 4, has previously owned terriers, understands their temperament and is experienced in their handling and the terrier has been exposed to small children in the past;
d) That, to the satisfaction of the dog’s foster and the Home Visitor, the Applicant has considered the commitment required to care for a dog for its entire life, which could exceed 15 years;
e) That the Applicant has considered:
i) That the financial commitment necessary to properly feed, house and provide adequate veterinary care for a pet can be expensive;
ii) The possibilities of emergency veterinary costs arising and has a plan in place to deal with such situations and that they realise that, as dogs age, their veterinary care requirements may grow, and the costs may increase accordingly;
f) Has a current veterinarian, a history with a veterinarian or have access that can be verified;
g) That to the satisfaction of the Home Visitor,
i) Everyone in the home is interested and excited about adopting rescue dogs including all children (if any);
ii) Children (if any) must be present at the meet & greet and must be seen to interact with dogs in the home, i.e. pet the dog, give the dog treats. If the dog shows signs of being scared or of aggression during the interaction the family is probably not a good fit as a foster family. If the children are not present, a second meet & greet must be scheduled;
iii. The Applicant can demonstrate that he/she is knowledgeable about terriers and understand their temperament and personality;
iv. The Applicant has enough free time each day to devote to feeding, exercising and interacting with a dog;
v. the Applicant has the patience necessary to train and rehabilitate a rescued dog and that they understand that the transition for these dogs into new homes can take time and that they may have to house train the dog;
vi. the home environment is right for a terrier;
vii. that the Applicant is willing and able to keep JRNC updated on the dog’s progress by sharing pictures, videos and information via email or social media
