Here's what the humans have to say about me:
PHOEBE came to us from a kill shelter where she was very unhappy. She was scared and in pain from an infected mouth. Her face was swollen so much that she looked like a little squirrel with her cheeks full of nuts! We took her to the doggie dentist and he had to pull a lot of teeth, but after antibiotics did their work her face looks like a Jack Russell again, and she is a happy and sweet little girl. From a scared and grumpy little dog to a sweet and happy one, it only took a little care and love. Phoebe is about 8 -10 yrs old and in good health. She is a Jack Russell terrier "shortie". She loves people and other dogs, and she will be a great companion. If you are interested -- YOU MUST COMPLETE AN ADOPTION APPLICATION FIRST TO BE CONSIDERED TO ADOPT. Go to www.AlmostHomeFlorida.com to fill out an online application.
This dog will only be adopted to someone with a securely fenced yard. Underground fencing is NOT safe for a Jack Russell. It is required that the household have no small children (under 6) as terriers do NOT make good pets for households with very young children, and no small animals (cats, birds, ferrets, hamsters, etc.) as terriers were bred to hunt and can kill small animals. Jack Russell terriers are not suited to apartment or condo life, and it would be unwise to expect them to be anything other than what they were bred to be. The hunting instincts and prey drive cannot be trained out of these terriers and they will stay active in this way all their lives, even up to 15 to 16 years old and older.
