Jack Russell Terrier puppies and dogs in Tinton Falls, New Jersey

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Betty is a special girl who is looking for a new home. Betty is currently with one of our sister rescues in Louisiana but hoping to come to NJ soon. We do offer a foster-to-adopt trial to approved adopters. Betty was rescued from a high kill shelter in southern Louisiana. She is currently in a foster home in Louisiana getting lots of love and care. Betty has had a hard life. She is suffering the effects of heartworm and having some complications because of this. Her heart is enlarged from the worms and our partner rescue is working addressing her medical needs carefully to keep Betty feeling well. She is on some cardiac meds to help her heart function more efficiently. Due to Betty's heartworm complications, she cannot be spayed just yet but that can be done once she is stronger and feeling better.  Betty has begun heartworm treatment and can come to NJ in April once her injections are completed. We are hoping after treatment she can come off the cardiac meds but that can be hard to predict. Betty has improved so much under the care of our partner rescue we are confident she will continue to improve. We are looking for a foster or adopter to continue Betty's care here in NJ. Betty is dog friendly but prefers calmer pups. She is housebroken and crate trained.  Betty is  microchipped and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $300.  Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training   prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me!

Tibby is a loyal and brave 7-year-old mix of Jack Russell Terrier mix, weighing 18 pounds. This unique girl has a personality all her own—much like a cat! Tibby likes to be touched on her terms, using her expressive eyes to let you know when she’s not in the mood. Independent by nature, she needs time to build trust, but once you’ve earned it, she’ll be your best friend and will always be by your side. We don’t know what happened in Tibby’s past to make her so cautious, but we do know that with patience, she’ll become your closest companion. Tibby loves to curl up next to you on the couch when she’s ready for affection. and is very well behaved in her foster home She’s a pro at entertaining herself with toys and enjoys a game of fetch, but she’s also perfectly content being a couch potato. Tibby is always up for an adventure, especially if it involves a car ride, and she’s great on a leash. She should be your one and only, as she’s not a fan of sharing her space with other animals. Tibby is spayed, up-to-date on her vaccinations, microchipped, and fully vetted. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind companion who values her space but will reward your patience with a lifetime of loyalty, Tibby is the perfect match!

Our B litter is ready for adoption! This sweet litter of pups are about 9-10 weeks, born around mid-November 2024. These puppies are some of the lucky ones – a good Samaritan saw a mangy, starving dog eating scrap someone threw out in a back corner of a Mexican restaurant by a dumpster. She couldn’t turn away. The good Samaritan was going to just help mom, when she realized mom looks to have just had puppies. It’s like the momma dog knew someone was there to help, and she turned away from the scrap food and started walking down the street. The good Samaritan followed this momma dog for almost 2 miles to a home, where when they walked up, 7 puppies came running out from under the house (see video!) The homeowner didn’t claim mom or puppies, nor did she want anything to do with them. She refused to feed them or offer them shelter. It took some time, but after a few days, we were able to get all 7 pups and mom to safety. Mom is about 32 lbs and has a wire-hair coat, we have named her Lainey and she will also be available for adoption soon. We do not know who dad is. We believe pups will vary in size with the 2 runts (Baby ad Belle) staying smaller than the others – but generally we believe they will stay around 40 lbs. Please keep in mind that these puppies had minimal human interaction until a few weeks ago, but they are now in their prime age for impression, training and growing in a home to learn from. They all would do wonderfully with well-behaved children, other dogs and cats. They did not chase stray cats at the home they were at and they LOVE other dogs. Here’s a breakdown of the litter and some information on each one: All weights are as of 1/19/25 Baby – Male Runt – 7.5 lbs – Black and white (tri color) – Semi wirehair and very short hair – does not seem to shed much, if at all – Very playful. Very outgoing. Fun to watch play as he is so much tinier than the other pups. Daring. First pup to try anything. Aims to please. Wants to be next to you and get lots of love and love you. All homes would be ideal, all ages of children would be great for Baby. Belle – Female Runt – 4.4 lbs – Black and White – Wirehair – Does not seem to shed – She is quite timid but friendly and does come around. Will make the best baby. She defends herself against all the other bigger pups. Fierce and won’t let anyone pick on her. Is learning to play with toys. Could be a lap dog with lots of patience. Minimal-mild active home that is patient. Beau – Male – 10.2 lbs – Brown and White – Wirehair – Does not seem to shed – Needs someone with some patience. He is a bit timid and would rather watch everyone else play before joining. He would do best with another dog in the home. Beau is learning to trust people and his surroundings. Minimal-Mild Active home that is patient. Bree – Female – 11.4 lbs – Black and White – Short hair, minimal shedding – She is a hoot to have around. She loves to talk to you and is very vocal. She doesn’t mind telling you how she feels. She’s more of a leader and she keeps all the other puppies in check and in their place. If any of them start bickering, Bree will be there to break it up. She’s not afraid to test the waters and try anything new. A bit shorter of legs and stocky build. A more active home is preferred. Blue – Male – 12.4 lbs – Black and White – Short hair, minimal shedding – This gentle giant boy is so sweet. He is the biggest of the litter. He is very curious but won’t try anything first. He will stand back and watch. He is learning to trust humans and his surroundings. Very smart. Blue would be great with another dog to teach him or someone willing to put in the time and patience for training and socialization. Would love someone to force cuddles on him so he can learn to fully love people. Not a mean bone in his body. Mildly active home ideal, with patience. Biscuit – Male – 11.1 lbs – Brown and White – Wire Hair – Does not seem to shed – This lover boy is the most timid of the group of pups. The foster left him with his mom so she can help build his confidence and not be bullied by his siblings. He is very submissive. Needs a family or person that is patient, kind and understands he does need socialization and lots of love. Ideally no young children given how timid he is. Bear – Male – 11.3 lbs – Black and White – Short hair, minimal shedding – One of the most outgoing pups of the litter! He is one of the few that came around super quickly and is super lovable, huggable and amazing all around. He LOVES to be held in your arms and rocked like a baby or just carried around. He would rather be with you than anywhere else. His next favorite thing is belly rubs. He will roll over in a heartbeat to get some belly rubs and stay there until you can’t anymore. He is a very relaxed pup and doesn’t run around too much. Chill. Mildly active home and all age children would be perfect. All of these puppies will make wonderful and loyal companions. Please watch the video to see mom when she was first found, to when the good Samaritan found the house, to the puppies safe and sound and enjoying their first toys. All puppies are current on age appropriate vaccinations, preventions, dewormer, microchipped and will receive a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to receiving the animal. Please consider adopting today – To apply to adopt: www.pawsitive-impact-animal-rescue.org

Meet this sweet little bundle of love! 🐾 She's becoming more and more cuddly by the day and would thrive in a home with middle school-aged kids or older who can give her the attention she craves. She's an absolute people pup—while toys are fun, she prefers playing with you! So a family that can spend lots of time with her would be her dream come true. She’s also dog-friendly and loves having a furry buddy to hang out with. Training? Well, she's got a bit of a stubborn streak, so things move a little slower—but with patience and love, she’s sure to get there. When she’s not playing or learning, she’s following you around like a shadow, hoping for a scratch or a snuggle. And if she happens to get a little correction from you or the cats, she’ll melt your heart by sulking and hiding her face in your arm—it’s adorable! If you're looking for a sweet, playful, and affectionate companion who will love you with all her heart, she's your girl! 🐶💖
