Story

**Courtesy Post**Deuce is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with placement and networking. All inquiries should be directed to Deuce’s owner at Sjkm32@hotmail.com ** This handsome boy is named Deuce. He is 8 years young, microchipped, neutered and vaccinated. He’s very well trained. He knows a lot of basic commands which include: sit down, no jump, halt-stop, leave it, stay, shake paw-left, shake paw right, no bark, go to truck/car/door, bring it, drop it. He likes to play outside and he will keep your yard free of varmints!! He also loves to chase a tennis ball! Like all Jack Russell Terriers, Deuce needs a fenced-in backyard. His house manners are perfect! He’s house trained and does not make a mess. He loves to curl up with a blanket to snuggle. If your lap is available he would love to get in it. He is also crate trained, but we want his new home to not leave him in there very long. Deuce is a “people person“ and he wants to be with you. We’re not sure how he will do with other dogs or kids. And, like a lot of JRT’s he does not like cats. Deuce is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with placement and networking. All inquiries should be directed to Deuce’s owner at Sjkm32@hotmail.com If you are interested in this wonderful boy please go to www.RussellRescue.com and fill out the online adoption application. There is a small rehoming fee. His new owner will need to drive to Lafayette, Indiana to get him. A good vet reference is required to adopt Deuce.

Sawyer

Jack Russell Terrier

Male, 7 yrs

Chicago, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

How is it that this fabulous little guy isn't getting snapped up??? Sawyer is a darling guy who came from a hoarding situation. He was a little bit shy when he came in to rescue but with the help of the other dogs in the foster home, he is coming out of his shell and learning all the things a little lap sitter needs to know to be your perfect companion. He is 7 years old and fully vetted, heart worm negative and microchipped. He would do best in a house with another dog as it helps him to have another dog to show him the ropes. We are working on leash walking and potty training, but he won't need much help to learn loving. He just needs a loving family to show him how wonderful a dog's life can be. Won't you please consider adding him as a new family member? Just click on the big black button marked "Ask About Me" and we will get you an application for Sawyer! These dogs are being fostered in TN but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal-friendly transport on the road.

He may be a bit shy when first meeting new people, but with a little patience and kindness, his sweet personality quickly shines through. Once he feels comfortable, he becomes a loyal and affectionate companion. He is neutered and fully up to date on vaccines and prevention, making him ready to transition smoothly into his new home.

Please note, there is an additional $225 transport fee. We are unable to transport to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.
