Adopt a Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat)

Jack Russell Terrier / Mixed (short coat) Dog

Rusty the Dog needs a home

Please contact Lynn & Cedric ([email protected]) for more information about this pet.


All of our dogs and cats are in foster homes and we have no paid staff.  If you have questions concerning a specific animal,  PLEASE fill out an application and the foster parent will be in touch.  We will not arrange any home visits with any of our dogs and cats until your application is processed.  Please understand our foster parents are precious to our 2nd Chance family; without them we cannot function, so we do our best to not burden them with multiple appointments.  Our foster parents will choose their top 3 applications and arrange home visits with these applicants.  The adopter will be chosen at that time.  The process can take anywhere from a week to a month.  We want to make sure our little furry ones are placed in their "forever home" and never have to go through a rehoming again!





 


My life was really really wonderful.  My guy LOVED me!  We went everywhere together!  We moved to Masonic Village in an apartment and then one day dad wasn't doing well and they took him away and his kids came and got me and took me to a vets office and left me there never to come see me again :(  I stayed there for months because the vet thought the family was coming back for me.  She finally called them and when they said they weren't coming for me she decided maybe she should just euthanize me!!  Thankfully the staff made a call to 2nd Chance and told them the vet was considering killing me and 2nd Chance came and got me right away!!!
2nd Chance doesn't believe it is EVER OK to put a healthy pup down and can't understand how vetrinarians who take an oath to do no harm could EVER in good conscience do so :(
They told me not to worry I am safe now!!
I'm not sure about other pups because I've never been around them so I would really like to be your one and only.  My foster mom says we will work on the "furry friends" thing.  I'm not sure what I think at this point.



Please fill out an adoption application:

Please understand we do not adopt out dogs to 
families with children under the age of 5.  We do not adopt dogs to renters.  Some dogs will have fence requirements while others may not.



 



A pet is a lifetime commitment.  The dogs and cats in our system find themselves there, for the most part, because their humans did not have the same loyalty to them as they did to their owners.  We do not take the adoption process lightly, and will do everything in our power to make sure the animal is placed correctly the first time around for your sake and theirs.  Thank you for choosing to adopt not shop!
