Story
Meet Snowball—The Lovable Little Screwball Looking for His Valentine! ❤️🐶
Snowball, affectionately called Screwball by those who adore him, is a 1.5-year-old, 6.5-lb ball of big-dog confidence packed into a tiny frame! Full of love, mischief, and endless energy, this spunky Jack Russell Terrier mix is searching for a forever home that can keep up with his playful antics and zest for life.
Snowball’s journey hasn’t been the easiest—he was found as a terrified stray in December 2024, alone and unsure of the world around him. But with time, care, and a warm place to land, he’s blossomed into the bold, spirited pup he was always meant to be. Now, he’s ready to find a forever family who will cherish him for the rest of his days.
Like any young pup, Snowball still has his puppy tendencies and will need patience, guidance, and positive reinforcement training to help him learn his manners. But with the right family, he’s sure to blossom into a well-mannered, affectionate companion.
We believe Snowball is a Jack Russell Terrier mix, and true to his breed, he is intelligent, lively, and always on the go! JRTs are known for their big-dog attitude in a small-dog body, so it’s important that his future family understands and is ready for the fun (and challenges) that come with this breed.
🏡 What Snowball Needs in a Forever Home:
✔️ An active household that will keep him engaged, both physically and mentally
✔️ No young children—he thrives best in an adult or older-teen home
✔️ A dog-savvy family ready to invest in training and structure
✔️ A canine sibling could be a great match, but only if they’re indifferent to his playful, sometimes bossy personality (he has a tendency to bully smaller dogs and challenge bigger ones!)
Snowball is already neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his shots—he’s just missing one thing: a forever Valentine to love him unconditionally!
