Please contact Marilyn at 856-275-6905 for more information about this pet.  This dog is located in Newark, DE. Visit us on the web at https://fur-everpaws.com/fur-ever-paws-adoption-application/ to submit an application. Please contact the foster directly at 856-275-6905 (call or text) or via email at Fureverpawsdogrescue@gmail.com&#226&#128&#139 Fur Ever Paws Dog Rescue is a small no kill rescue operating in the Delaware/Maryland area. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit that rescues and places homeless, neglected or abused dogs from high-kill shelters in the south into loving, responsible committed and permanent homes. We feel our comprehensive adoption process which includes not only taking the time to match the dog to the prospective new owner but helping to educate that owner in responsible dog care, allows us to find the best homes for our little buddies and the best companions for you! Each week we use USDA certified transports to bring dogs from high-kill shelters in the south to our fosters where they all receive the appropriate medical care and are placed in nurturing loving homes while they await placement in their forever homes. Interested in one of our dogs? Great! Now that you've seen them here, you'll need to go to our website where you'll find our list of adoptable dogs (updated every week). Then, it's just a simple process of finding a dog you're interested in and filling out an application on our site. Once we receive your application, whoever is fostering that particular dog will contact you and do a short over the phone interview to complete your application process. If everything works out, they will set an appointment with you so come out and "visit" with the dog you're interested in (we want to make sure that not only are you a good fit for the dog but that the dog will fit with you). If everything works out, you'll be able to take rover (or spot, or jax) home with you that very day. A couple of things you should know: We can't hold dogs over the phone or via email. Adoption fees vary based on breed. All of our dogs have been vet checked and dewormed (if possible due to age, additional treatment may be needed). We provide a spay or neuter voucher to all of our adopters. &#226&#128&#139 February 12, 2026, 11:25 am

Story
Meet Lewis & Clark! These two adventurous 3‑month‑old Jack Russell Terrier mixes were recently surrendered by a commercial breeder when they didn’t sell—but their fresh start begins now. Lewis and Clark are everything puppies should be: - Sweet and affectionate - Happy, wiggly, and full of tail wags - Curious about every new sight and sound - Active, playful, and always ready for fun With their bright eyes and bouncy energy, they’re looking for equally active families who can keep up with their zest for life. Long walks, play sessions, puppy training, and plenty of enrichment will help them grow into well‑rounded adult dogs. Although they came in together, Lewis and Clark will not be adopted as a pair. Each pup is ready to bond deeply with their own forever family. If you’re searching for a lovable, spirited companion to join you on life’s adventures, one of these boys might be your perfect match! They will come with age appropriate vaccines, neutered and microchipped. Apply today at: www.phoenixanimalrescue.com Their adoption fee is $525.

Story
hi Benji Boy! This happy boy is a 4 yr old, approx. 22 lbs. Jack Russell Terrier. He was found as a stray and brought to the local animal control shelter. Sadly, his owner declined to reclaim him so we scooped him up for the rescue. Beni Boy, true to his breed, is a happy and energetic pup! He is a true life of a party - always excited to see our volunteers, eager to explore and spend time in the play-yards. He will bring lots of laughter and joy to his forever home. He will come neutered, vaccinated, microchipped. Benji Boy had good dog meets in the animal control shelter and he would need to meet any resident dogs. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out the adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com. His adoption fee is $475. Phoenix Animal Rescue Chester Springs, PA Kennel License #5152
