Story
Currently fostered in Texas. Effie is Apx two years old and 20 pounds. We believe she is either a rat terrier or Jack Russell terrier mix. She came to the rescue heart worm positive but has been treated and will be ready to go after Feb 6th. She is a really good dog in many ways however she shows many terrier hunting breed qualities and does have a high prey drive to chase small animals like chicken, cats and can be quite dominant and plays too rough with small dogs as well . She would do best in a home with dogs her own size or larger. Or as an only dog. She does have a lot of good qualities. She is very social. She walks on a leash perfectly. She has good potty manners. She loves all humans, including children. She is a happy , clean, sweet, well mannered dog that is very people pleasy and will be easy to train and acclimate to a new home and life. She is a perfect blend of active , playful and fun mixed with huge cuddle bug couch potato. She loves belly rubs and is very submissive with people. She is a lover girl and will make a great companion for the right family. Approved adopters please send your hold requests to the email you were given.

Story
✨🐾 Meet Ginny: Small Dog, Big Personality! 🐾✨ Ginny may be pint-sized, but don’t let that fool you—this approximately 3-year-old Jack Russell Terrier X is packed with spunk, smarts, and confidence. She arrived at the shelter as a stray (with a mystery backstory we may never solve) and, sadly, was never claimed. Now she’s ready to claim a home of her own. True to her JRT roots, Ginny is friendly, social, and active. She loves meeting people and happily greets everyone like they’re her long-lost best friend. She’s a nice balance of outgoing and calm, but she definitely comes with that classic Jack Russell zest for life. Ginny already knows how to sit, but she’s also known to jump up and pull on leash—enthusiasm is kind of her thing. Continued obedience training will help polish her manners, and the good news is she’s smart and eager, making her a great candidate for training with consistency and patience. While she did well meeting another young dog at the shelter, Ginny can be a bit of a bossy boots with other dogs. She’s confident, direct, and expects others to respect her boundaries—especially around food. She communicates clearly without escalating, but she does best with slow, controlled introductions and dog friends who match her personality and respect her leadership style. Despite her smaller size, Ginny needs a family ready to provide daily exercise and mental enrichment to keep her happy and healthy. She’ll thrive in a home that understands and appreciates the quirks of a Jack Russell Terrier—because with Ginny, what you see is what you get: bold, bright, and full of character. If you’re looking for a fun, feisty, and loving companion who knows her mind and isn’t afraid to share it, Ginny just might be your girl. 💕🐶 https://www.hamilton.ca/home-neighbourhood/animals-pets/adopt-or-foster-pet/adoptions Animal adoptions and viewing are by appointment only. This allows our Adoption Staff to spend quality time with each potential home to ensure the most successful matches are made between the animals and their new families. *Please note: we only adopt within Ontario
