Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet sweet Oliver! He is a one year old Jack Russell Terrier. This little guy has had a rough start in life. He was in a bad situation where he was being abused when we rescued him. He is super friendly with women and he has overcome his fear of men (it was a man who abused him). Oliver is heart worm negative and on monthly prevention. He is also neutered and current on his vaccinations. Oliver lives in a home with several cats. One of the cats he just loves, but the others he chases unmercifully. It might be better for Oliver to be in a home with no cats. Oliver sleeps in a crate at night. He’s not completely fond of the crate yet, but will lie down and sleep until morning. Like most JRT’s, he doesn’t like opossums or raccoons so a home with no critters or small furry pets is a must for Oliver. He is housetrained and does a good job of letting you know he needs to go potty by whining at the door. He wears a harness to go outside and he will stand still while you put it on him. He does still need a little bit of training with leash walking, but he’s learning quickly! Oliver needs a forever home with loving owners who will be patient with him as he learns to trust. Oliver is being fostered in a home about an hour South of Kansas City, Missouri and his adopter will need to be willing to drive there to get him. Oliver’s adoption fee is $200. A home visit and good vet reference are mandatory to adopt him. He requires a home with no kids and no other male dogs. A fenced yard is required…no electronic fencing. If you are interested in making Oliver a part of your family, please complete the adoption application at russellrescue.com. Contact: jolleyjames@sbcglobal.net
