Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Uno is an adorable little four and a half year old shorty male Jack Russell Terrier. This guy is going to need a very special adopter. He has not been treated well in the past, nor was he socialized. Uno is very fearful of new people and new environments. His new owner will need to have patience while Uno comes to trust them. He came to Russell Rescue in January of 2021 with a heavy case of heartworms and on the verge of congestive heart failure. With a lot of crate rest, great veterinary medicine, and most importantly, lots of love, this boy now has a clean bill of health! Uno is heartworm negative now and has been neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. This boy is ready to find his forever home!
Uno loves his foster mom and is affectionate and happy with her. But he is very afraid of men so his adopter must be female. He is very timid and darty, but warms up to be a sweet, uncomplicated guy. Uno requires a quiet home with no kids. He will need a home with no cats, no farm animals, no little critters like hamsters, etc. He loves the company of other dogs and female dogs should be okay in his new home. Uno needs a securely fenced yard. No wrought iron, chain link or electronic fencing. A home visit will be done before adoption. You must also have a good vet reference. We want to place Uno in Texas only. As stated, he is going to need a special adopter, so we want them to be close by. Uno loves to fold himself into a taco when he’s excited and howl along to the radio in the car. He’ll do anything for food when he’s in a comfortable environment and loves a comfy place to lay and will go under the covers at a moments notice. Uno’s adopter must be able to drive to Lampasas, Texas area to get him. This little guy will need plenty of time and patience before he learns to love and trust you. Uno’s adoption fee is $275. If you are interested in adopting Uno and you meet all of the adoption criteria listed above, please fill out the online adoption application at www.RussellRescue.com to get the adoption process started. Once you complete the adoption application, someone will contact you. Contact for Uno: jamesejolley@gmail.com
