Description
Dog Breed: Jack Russell Terrier. Fourteen years young and still running on Jack Russell determination. This spunky little lady may be partially blind and mostly deaf, but don't tell her that - she's operating on vibes, muscle memory and sheer JRT energy. Spayed and slightly selective about what she acknowledges (hearing you call her?, optional), she's mastered the art of cozy naps, confident wandering, and demanding snacks with Olympic precision. The Henrico Police Animal Shelter is accessible by appointment only. Animals available for adoption can be viewed online at petfinder or adoptapet. Please contact the Animal Shelter at (804) 727-8807, Monday-Saturday, 10:00 am - 4:30 pm to schedule an appointment for adoption. Thank you.

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.
