GILLIGAN!

• Sex: Male
• Age: 10
• Color: Tri color
• Coat Type: Broken (wire coated)
• Housebroken: Yes, trustworthy for up to 10 hours.
• Crate Trained: No
• Type: Standard Jack Russell Terrier
• Kids: Over the age of 8. Great with visiting children/toddlers as long as they're respectful.

Gilligan is being surrendered to Russell Rescue due to changes in the family. They love him very much and insist that it's not Gilligan's fault that they must find him a home, but they just don't have time for him anymore due to a 2 year old toddler and 2 week old baby.

Gilligan is a very loving, sweet dog who has NEVER been destructive in the house... never EVER! When asked to list the qualities the owner likes MOST about him, the very first thing said was "unconditional love." Then he said "he's always friendly, never shy, never hides, he has a strong presence. Everyone LOVES him.

He's accustomed to having the run of the house, resting on furniture, has had some obedience training that could use a little brushing up on, and seems to be a very easy dog to live with!

Please fill out the online application if you're interested in adopting Gilligan!

JACK!

• Sex: Male
• Age: 3
• Color: Tri color
• Coat Type: Smooth
• Housebroken: Yes
• Crate Trained: Yes
• Type: Short Legged Jack Russell Terrier
• Kids: Older children only

Russell Rescue is assisting in the adoption of this terrier from a private party. This terrier is not offered for adoption through Russell Rescue.

Jack would do best in a terrier savvy home, with an owner who appreciates a feistier natured terrier who has had a series of homes with people who simply weren't right for him. So many people get this breed because they're CUTE and when they turn out to 100 pound dogs in 10 pound bodies, the dogs are passed to a new home, then another, then another...

If you'd like an intelligent, gamey terrier, Jack may be right for you. We think he'd do very well in a home that does outdoor activities like hiking. He needs a PURPOSE, and a patient, understanding owner who can provide plenty of exercise for him.
