Description
Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier. Hi there, my name is JJ! I am a 1 year old Jack Russel Terrier looking for my forever home! Somehow I ended up as a stray and got sent to a shelter. The nice folks there called Frankies Furry Friends and I got to go to a foster home with a nice Mom and a foster dog brother! Once there, I showed my Foster Mom I was house trained. I get along great with my foster brother....we LOVE to play together. I went to the vet and got all my vaccines. Just recently, I got neutered. That wasn't much fun, but it had to be done so I could go to a wonderful home and be a super good boy Now I am ready to find my furever home. I have puppy energy, so I need a home where I can play in a fenced yard or go for a couple of walks/day. I like children, so I would be a good family dog. I love to run and play plus I am an 18 pound lap dog. My pictures don't show it, but I have the cutest little stubby tail that wags and wags!! You've got to see how cute it is. Do I sound like a great addition to your family? If so, fill out an application and we can meet in person. Hope to see you soon, JJ Adoption fee to help defray vet expenses: $300

Overview:
The Jack Russell Terrier is a small, energetic dog breed originating from England in the mid-1800s, specifically bred by Reverend John Russell for fox hunting. These compact canines are easily recognized by their sturdy, muscular build, typically weighing between 13-17 pounds, with a height of 10-15 inches at the shoulder. Their coats can be smooth, broken, or rough, predominantly white with black, tan, or tricolor markings. Known for their spirited and confident temperament, Jack Russells are highly intelligent but can also be quite stubborn, requiring consistent training and ample mental stimulation. While devoted to their families, their high energy levels and strong prey drive make them better suited for active households with secure outdoor spaces rather than small apartments. They can thrive with children if properly socialized, though supervision is always advised due to their boisterous play. Generally healthy, they can be prone to certain genetic conditions such as patellar luxation, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, and some eye disorders, making responsible breeding crucial.
