Story
Name: Roxy Breed: Jack Russell Terrier MixSex/Age/Weight: Female/8 years old/10lbsVetting: Up to date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Please see the special notes regarding Roxy's cancer diagnosis. House-trained/Crate-trained: I am fully house-trained and crate-trained, although my foster parents leave me out of the crate when they are not around. I spend most of my time sleeping anyways.Dogs/Cats/Children: I would prefer to be the only dog in the home. I also don’t like cats very much. I have never been around children inside a home but I have met a couple on walks and I seem to like them. Energy Level: Low energy but I enjoy going on short walks. Before FAR/My History: Before coming to FAR, I was surrendered due to a cancerous mass. Since then, I have undergone three surgeries to remove the masses. The vet mentioned that there is still a possibility that the cancer may have spread to other parts of my body. There is also a possibility that the cancerous masses that were removed will come back. The type of cancer I have is an aggressive form of doggy breast cancer. However, I have been doing well and have been gaining weight under the care of my foster parents. Things I like: Cuddles, treats, and getting love. Things I don’t like: Loud noises.Ideal Family/Home: I am a senior dog with special needs, but I am still a loving and sweet companion. I am hoping to find a peaceful and comfortable place to spend my golden years.Special Notes: Roxy is a senior dog with special needs, and due to her cancer diagnosis may require extensive medical care.If you are interested in giving Roxy a forever home, please visit the link below to fill out an application! http://fureverafterrescue.org/adoption-application.html It is best to submit an application through a computer.

Byron, GA

Good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Huckleberry is all energy from morning till night. He needs a very active family without small children. He is bossy, so he would do best as an only dog. He is very affectionate, but because he lived his first three years on a chain, he is still learning to play. He loves stuffed animals and blankets, and is doing well on his crate training. We would like to find him a family that understands the Jack Russell breed.

Female, 3 yrs

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Pebbles is approx. 3 years old and weighs 9 pounds. Our best guess is that she is Jack Russell and chihuahua mix. What we do know is she is a long legged love bug! She loves to play with her fellow fosters and she is quite fond of her boyfriend, Donald. Those 2 can often be found snuggled up together, napping. Pebbles and her parents were rescued from a not so good situation. So, she is still working on her house training. She does do pretty well with the pee pads. She will just need patience and consistency to get her fully trained. WE DO NOT HAVE CATS. THEREFORE WE DO NOT KNOW CAT COMPATIBILITY. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND: OUR PETS ARE SHELTER PETS. WE HAVE VERY LITTLE, IF ANY, INFORMATION ABOUT THEIR PAST. PLEASE BE COMMITTED AND PREPARED TO TRAIN/RETRAIN YOUR NEW PET. REMEMBER, THEY MUST HAVE TIME TO DECOMPRESS. If you have not heard of the 333 Rule, please Google it. If you are interested in making this pup part of your family, please email us. Please give a brief description of your home, family and what you are looking for in a new furry family member. You may include anything else you think will move you to the top of the adoption list. We are located in Hollywood, SC. If you are not local to the area, we can refer you to a transport company. This company is not affiliated with the Rescue and will charge a separate fee.

Story
Howdy, everyone! Dolly here. I’m an outgoing girl who is good with most dogs and people. I was just spayed Oct. 8, and am now UTD on my shots, microchipped, and ready to roll after recovery. I am a sweet girl about 2 years old and am the “beige version” of my already-adopted sister, Penny (now Cookie). I am learning to walk on a leash and am really getting the hang of it. Before, I would just lie there like a brick and stare at you. Now I know it means we’re going on adventures! Woohoo! As with all of the rescues here, I will require a secure, above-ground fenced yard to keep me safe. https://www.jackrusselladoptions.org/adopt-a-dog/

Story
Hi, everyone. I’m Katie and I’m a special girl! I am beautiful and happy to be with my favorite people but very independent as far as most human society is concerned. I have come a long way since I arrived here at rescue in 2023. I came from the same backyard breeder as Angel and her puppies (Grace and Blackberry), but luckily I escaped the terrible genetic defect that shortened little Blackberry’s life. I will probably never be a true cuddle pup, but I’m good with other dogs, I love my porch life and my Dogloo and I definitely enjoy Benebones to the fullest! I’m not a fan of leash walking — and yes, they are working on that with me, but so far I’m “winning.” As you know, there’s stubbornness and then there’s JRT stubborn. 😉 When you look in my eyes, you see that I was not given the life I should have had and now that it is available, I sometimes don’t quite believe in it. I’m about 3 years, old, UTD on my shots, microchipped, and, most importantly, spayed! I will make a great quiet companion … well, unless the delivery truck arrives! I would do best in a house without small children as I have never been around them and they might make me uncomfortable. As with all of the rescues here, I will need a secure, above-ground fence to keep me safe. https://www.jackrusselladoptions.org/adopt-a-dog/

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Peanut Butter and his Mom Jelly were pulled from Clayton County Animal Control after they both landed on the euthanisa list.  He is a bundle of sweet energy and is very loving and loves to be held.  He's a cuddle bug and loves to sing like a Husky likes to do.  Both he and his Mom had Demodex Mange while in the shelter which isn't contagious but takes a little while to clear up.  They are both on Credelio which is a flea/tick med that also helps with this condition.  This is available at most veterinarian offices. We believe his Mom is a Blue Heeler Siberian Husky mix. ##2251440##
