Story

**Courtesy Post**Kevin is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with networking/placement. All inquiries should be directed to Kevin’s owner at nicserio@gmail.com ** Kevin needs a new home! He’s 4 years old and a great little dog. All vet work is done and he is ready to start a new life. We hope his owner is not gone all day. This little guy needs attention. Like most young Jack Russells he wants someone who will do things with him. He’s not a couch potato! And, he is a 16 year commitment! He will do okay with other dogs, but not cats, little critters like hamsters, parakeets, etc. or farm animals. Kevin is not a Russell Rescue dog. Russell Rescue is only assisting with networking/placement. All inquiries should be directed to Kevin’s owner at nicserio@gmail.com Please fill out the online adoption application at www.RussellRescue.com if you are interested. There is a small rehoming fee. Kevin’s new owner will need to drive to the Buffalo Grove, Illinois area to get him. A good vet reference is required to adopt Kevin.

Rocky

Jack Russell Terrier

Male, 11 mos

Crown Point, IN

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Rocky is 9 months old and weighs about 20 pounds, with a little extra chunky monkey charm. He is very sweet, quiet, and naturally submissive. He is incredibly loving and people-oriented. Rocky is a Shortie Jack Russell with an easy, adaptable temperament. He can run and play if you want activity, or he can relax and be a couch potato if the day is quiet. He adjusts to the pace of the home and is not a high-energy terrier. Rocky currently uses a pet door in his foster home for potty breaks, which has helped him understand that potty happens outdoors. Even without a pet door, this foundation makes his transition easier, but he will still need patience, supervision, and continued training as he learns your home and routine. WHAT HE COMES WITH:- Vet-checked- Age-appropriate vaccinations- Dewormed- Heartworm and flea preventatives- Neutered- Microchipped Through our rescue’s partnership with MetLife, adopters receive a special-rate pet insurance quote during the Petstablished adoption process. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS:- A fully fenced-in backyard suitable for a small/medium dog- An adult home during the day with time for a young puppy- No crating; adopters must use an approved puppy playpen- Children age 7+ (younger considered case-by-case)- Homes with no dogs or up to one small/medium dog PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE TO SEE HIS VIDEO AND TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION:www.indianasaveadog.com ##2681152##

Pip

Jack Russell Terrier

Male, 9 mos

Crown Point, IN

Size

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

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Pip is a 9-month-old, 15-pound sweetheart who came from a breeder/hoarding situation and has blossomed beautifully in his foster home. He has a naturally calm, gentle temperament and is not the wild, high-energy type. He has lived with his littermate, Pauley, his whole life and they get along wonderfully, but Pip does not need to be adopted with his brother. He has the personality and confidence to flourish in his own home, and adopters should not feel obligated to take both boys. If you are interested in adopting both, the combined adoption fee is $495. Individual adoption fee is $295. ABOUT PIPPip is the more sensitive, submissive sibling. He is a gentle little guy who warms up beautifully with kindness and routine. He loves being held, enjoys affection, and is learning that the world is a safe place. He thrives with patient people who speak softly, move kindly, and give him time to settle in. TRAINING AND HOME LIFEPip is adjusting wonderfully to normal home life. He enjoys being outside, running in the yard, and relaxing inside with his foster family. He is still working on housetraining and will need continued patience, supervision, and consistency as he learns a new home and routine. He currently uses a pet door in his foster home, which has helped him understand that potty happens outdoors. Like most puppies his age, Pip is still in the chewing stage and needs supervision. For his safety, he must be kept in an approved puppy playpen anytime he cannot be directly watched. A puppy pen provides a low-anxiety, safe space for him and helps him learn appropriate habits while keeping him secure. Pip cannot be left home for long periods. As a young puppy, he needs the companionship, structure, and reassurance he did not receive in his previous home. He is still learning, still chewing, and still building confidence, so he needs adopters who are home more often to provide guidance and support. PIP IS:- Vet-checked- Up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations- Dewormed- On heartworm and flea preventatives- Neutered- Microchipped ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS:- A fenced-in backyard suitable for small/medium dogs (no invisible fences)- Someone home more often for companionship, training, and supervision- No crating; adopters must use an approved puppy playpen- Children age 7+ (younger considered case-by-case)- Homes with no dogs or up to one small/medium dog PLEASE GO TO OUR WEBSITE TO SEE HIS VIDEO AND TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION:www.indianasaveadog.com ##2681160##

Story

ADOPT CORA! Cora, a 2 year old, 14 pound spayed female Rat Terrier mix, is a happy active girl who loves everyone she meets, even kids, over age 8. She gets along great with the other small dogs in her foster home. She, however, doesn’t like larger dogs. If you have an equally active young dog Cora would like a playmate. Since she can be a bit of a pest when she wants to play, she is not a good match for a home with a non-playful or senior dog. Due to her prey drive NO CATS, BUNNIES etc. Cora loves to snuggle. When it’s bedtime Cora sleeps snuggled in bed under the blankets with her foster mom. Cora will also follow you around the house. Wherever you are is where she will be. You will never shower alone again. Small dog secure fenced yard required. Adopter must be located within 40 minutes of Steger, Illinois. She is house trained with reminders and uses potty pads. Cora’s adoption fee $495. Cora is up to date on shots, spayed, microchipped, fecal checked, heartworm negative and current on heartworm and flea prevention. If you believe this wonderful little girl is for you, go to our website heathersfosterdogs.org. Then click on Adoption Application in the menu at the top of the page to find our electronic application which serves as the basis of a conversation. Submit it & you will be contacted. We will make arrangements to meet with prospective adopters for Cora only after a submitted application has been reviewed & a phone conversation taken place. ***Please note that we are a foster based group located in the southern suburbs of Chicago. Again, Cora’s adopter must be located within 40 minutes of Steger, Illinois.**
