Story
I have a 7 yr old jack Russel who needs a home. his name is Dexter and is a very cuddly dog once he gets to know you. he can be aggressive in unfamiliar situations or when he feels threatened. he is up to date all shots and currently sees a vet at Banfield pet hospital in grove city. Sadly I have to relocate due to a family emergency and I can not take him with me. as much as this breaks my heart I need to find him a good place to find a new home. he would do well somewhere without other dogs and possibly in the country where he can run. he is very active and intelligent. he loves walks and just hanging in the park. he loves ducks and argues with them often. I can provide his bed(s) , toys and food .

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Introducing Russ ~ Hub Cap! Little Russ has a sensitive side. He is very loveable if you give him a little time. Life probably was not all that good to him, so he is a little cautious. His handler in the prison program said that he has come a long way. He is a quiet guy who does not bark and prefers soothing sounds and soft touches. He is not rowdy, so I bet he likes his friends the same. He is leash trained and crate-trained. Russ has been working on some commands in the prison program and is current on his vetting. He has not been kid tested. He would love to continue his growth in his forever home. Russ will be quietly waiting.

He loves hiding his person's shoes, jackets, and clothes while they are in the shower. And then will come and love on you!! Once Sampson is comfortable, he loves to snuggle and would be the perfect companion and lap dog. He also can be protective over the people whom he trusts, he knows a good thing when he sees it.   Sampson gets along with other animals but can get a littke spicy with new visitors.
