Story

Tommy is such a cute, yet naughty boy. He is dog friendly and playful. This little boy is adorable and he is a project dog, not one for a busy household as he takes time to trust new people. Once he knows you he is a lover boy - but he is selective and it can take time. Tommy can be wary of strangers and does have some ankle biting in his past....Tommy is better suited for country living away from the random public and well meaning admirers. For more information on Tommy please call 707-459-4900.

Story

Meet Lola Age: 12 | Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Lola is a spunky twelve-year-old Jack Russell with a big heart and a lifetime of loyalty behind her. She’s short in stature but not in spirit, still lighting up when she spots a toy or hears the treat bag rustle. What you’ll get in choosing Lola: Experience and affection: At her age, Lola understands routines, enjoys cuddle time, and thrives on a calm, consistent home environment. Low-key adventure: She’s no puppy tornado, but she still enjoys short walks, a bit of playful chasing, and exploring safe outdoor spaces. A yard or secure fenced area would really suit her. Twinkle in her eyes: Her muzzle may show a few gray hairs—and sure, she’s earned them—but she still greets you with that classic Jack Russell “let’s go” look. Clear signals: Lola communicates well. She uses her body language to tell you what she wants: a pause, a belly rub, or a break from stimulation. A note on her personality: Lola is good with other dogs in off-leas

Story

I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereAt 4 years old and16 pounds, this Jack Russell mix is the total package—gentle, affectionate, and full of heart. Wrigley is mellow and well-mannered, but he also loves to play. Whether it’s a game of tug-of-war, a squeaky toy chase, classic fetch, or a walk in the great outdoors, Wrigley’s tail is always wagging. He's also been friendly with other dogs at the shelter Wrigley recently went on a field trip with a volunteer, who reported: "Wrigley had a great time exploring the Alameda waterfront. He followed his nose, taking in all the smells, yet was content to go wherever I lead him. He didn’t blink an eye at bicycles whizzing by and calmly observed passing dogs, not barking or pulling toward them even when they were rowdy. He was fascinated by the ground squirrels, though I was able to redirect him without much trouble. We took several breaks along the way to cuddle, have some treats, and take in the sights. Wrigley is a gentle and affectionate pup with the most expressive ears. He was a very good boy on our outing!" In his foster home, Wrigley has settled in beautifully. He's a quiet shadow, always nearby and always ready for snuggles. He’s smart, treat-motivated, and learns quickly. He has shown some signs of separation anxiety, so a home with people who are around a lot, or have a confident canine buddy, could be a great fit. If you're looking for a loyal sidekick with a calm spirit and a playful heart, Wrigley might be a great match for your pack! Click here to learn how to adopt and submit your adoption questionnaire.

Cleo

Jack Russell Terrier Chihuahua

Female, Young

San Francisco, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Cleo is a one-eyed wonder and has completely forgotten about losing an eye in a dog attack. Agile and athletic, Cleo is a 12 lb., 2 yr-old Terrier mix and displays Terrier behavior such as loving to play with toys, loving to go for long walks and is inquisitive about anything new in her world. Cleo came from a situation where she was under-socialized and displays fearful behavior. We are working on behavior training and she is becoming much calmer. Little Cleo is potty trained with regular potty breaks. Cleo is a one or 2 person dog, and makes friends with new people very slowly. She lives OK with a companion dog, and an ocassiional dog visitor, but we think she would prefer to be an only dog in her future home. Due to her young age and training, Cleo will age into a proper little companion. Grateful Dogs Rescue incurs substantial veterinary and other expenses in rescuing our dogs. In order to recoup some of these costs, we request a tax-deductible donation for each adoption. The suggested donation for Cleo is $300. If you are interested in adopting Cleo, please complete our online adoption application at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/adoption-process/ . One of our volunteers will get back to you. Adoptions are local, confined to the SF Bay Area. See our other available dogs at https://www.gratefuldogsrescue.org/available-dogs/ September 19, 2025, 11:42 pm

Improv 13305

Jack Russell Terrier

Male, 9 yrs 3 mos

San Francisco, CA

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Give a warm round of applause for Improv! This scruffy, sandy blonde senior is always ready to keep the good times rolling. With plenty of energy and spunk for his age, he loves being the star of the show, which means soaking up attention, pets, and smiles wherever he goes. Improv gets along great with other dogs and brings his happy, “go with the flow” spirit to every scene. Life with him is unscripted, joyful, and full of heart! Here's some notes from his foster: Improv is a sweet good boy who loves head scratches and kitchen scraps. He's highly food motivated and less interested in toys. This senior pup is high energy and loves to go on walks to meet other furry friends. He loves meeting other dogs, no matter the size. Improv does well in the car, on walks, and during bath time. He does get a little sad home alone, so I think he would do well with another furry friend at home. Improv loves head and face scratches but prefers not to be picked up when already comfortable in bed.
