Jack Russell Terrier puppies and dogs in Keizer, Oregon

Hi, I’m Mia! I’m a 15-pound Jack Russell Terrier with a big personality, a love for playtime, and a very special best friend named Scruffy. Scruffy is a 23-pound Coton de Tulear/Australian Cattle Dog mix, and we are a bonded pair, which means we’re looking for a forever home together! If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I LOVE to play fetch. I could happily chase my favorite toy over and over again, but don’t worry—you’ll know when I’ve decided the game is over. Once I’m tired, I simply stop giving the toy back. I have to make sure my humans know when playtime has officially ended! I’ve lived with cats and do well with them, and I’ve also lived with children of different ages. I did well when the kids in my home were little and have continued to do well with them as they’ve grown older. When it comes to other dogs, I can be selective. I generally get along with dogs, but there are some personalities that just aren’t the right match for me. Of course, there’s one dog I know I can’t live without—Scruffy! I’ve even lived peacefully with birds and lizards, so I have experience sharing my home with quite the variety of animal friends. I’m looking for a family who has enough room in their hearts and home for both Scruffy and me. We already have each other, and now we just need our people to make our little family complete. Our adoption fee together is $495, and I’m spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. Apply to meet me (and Scruffy) today!

I'm available through Project POOCH. Learn more about me and apply at pooch.org/jasmine Pleasure to meet you, I'm Jasmine! If you were to look up what it means to have a zest for life, you might just find a video of me living it up! Whether I am hanging out in the office, or playing in the yards, there is absolutely no doubt that I love life. I'm accepting applications to share this enthusiasm with a new home! MORE ABOUT JASMINE: Jasmine came into POOCH ready to show all the guys what it means to love life. Shes unapologetically enthusiastic about hanging out with her people and throws herself into her favorite activities! This terrier lady had quite the toy drive, eager to chase balls and de-stuff stuffies. She rivals labs with her love of the ball. Speaking of things she loves, Jasmine loves people. She prefers to spend her time where the people are maybe we should have named her Ariel with how much she wants to be a part of your world! When working on training, Jasmine is extremely food-motivated. Unfortunately, she is not the best at finding the food you toss to her, so she does prefer you to hand it to her directly. Bonus: you get to see her hungry eyes while you do. Jasmine isn't the most interested in participating in playgroups, but she enjoys being a part of them while the other dogs run around. She is content to share her space with other dogs, as long as they aren't running her over. Due to concerns about hip pain and the possibility of chronic issues, we had our vet radiograph Jasmine's hips. We found that she actually has some concerns along her spine that could be a larger problem in the future with trauma. Going forward from that appointment, we have started her on medication to relieve inflammation and support nerve health. For now, Jasmine is loving life, enjoying her walks and playtime, and having a blast with her friends. We are cautious about her jumping and making sure any larger dogs are not roughhousing with her. Special Needs: -Jasmine has several herniated disks in her back as well as some nerve impingement by her tail. If Jasmine jumps off a couch or down stairs, basically any type of jumping that could shock her spine, it could lead to her back end becoming paralyzed. She is going to need an adopter who fully understands this potential and wants to take her on, knowing that she could lose the use of her back legs in the future. The nerve impingement near her tail could lead to full incontinence. The future is unknown for Jasmine, but what we know right now is that she is happy, full of life, and ready to bring joy to the right home! Jasmine will go home with a leash, harness, toys, a bed, a stroller, a week's worth of food, and 2 doses of flea/tick/heartworm preventative I'm available through Project POOCH.

Meet Paolo A Happy Little Puppy Ready to Grow Up With His Forever Family Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Mix Gender: Male | Age: 03/24/2026 Weight:  9 lbs currently (small medium) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Playful | ❤️ Sweet | Curious | Happy Puppy Medical: Vaccines up to date/ Neutered at age appropriate  Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Paolo is an adorable Jack Russell Terrier mix weighing approximately 9 pounds. He's a happy young boy with everything you'd expect from a puppy—playfulness, curiosity, youthful energy, and a whole lot of growing and learning still ahead of him. Paolo is good with other dogs and children, while his compatibility with cats is currently unknown. At six months old, Paolo is at a fun and important stage of puppyhood. He's beginning to leave the tiny baby stage behind, but he's still very much a puppy. His personality will continue developing as he grows, and his future family will play a big role in helping him become a confident, well-mannered adult dog. As a Terrier mix, Paolo may share characteristics often associated with terriers, including being bright, curious, playful, energetic, affectionate, and full of personality. Terriers can be clever little dogs who enjoy exploring their surroundings and having opportunities to use their minds. Paolo would benefit from: Daily age-appropriate walks and exercise Plenty of playtime Interactive toys and enrichment Positive-reinforcement training Continued positive socialization Consistent routines and boundaries Plenty of affection and companionship Paolo may be a little guy, but he still needs opportunities to walk, sniff, explore, play, learn, and experience the world safely. Puppy Training, Adjustment & What to Expect At six months old, Paolo is still learning how to be a dog in a human world. His adopter should be prepared for all the normal work that comes with raising a puppy. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so Paolo's family should be ready to continue working on: House training Leash manners Basic commands Recall Appropriate chewing Calm greetings Household boundaries Positive socialization Building confidence Learning how to settle and relax Puppies need patience, repetition, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Mistakes are part of the learning process, and the time invested in Paolo now can help shape the adult dog he becomes. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand his new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home For a puppy, these first months are also a period of rapid development, making consistency and positive experiences especially important. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Paolo's neuter, vaccination, and microchip status have not been provided. His adopter should review his medical records with a veterinarian and make sure he receives all remaining age-appropriate puppy vaccinations and boosters, neutering if not already completed, parasite prevention, routine wellness examinations, dental care, quality puppy nutrition, healthy growth monitoring, grooming, and veterinary treatment whenever needed. Because Paolo is still growing, his family should provide age-appropriate exercise and avoid excessive repetitive jumping or strenuous forced exercise. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Paolo, please complete an adoption application at: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes. We expand our adoption efforts throughout the Western United States, Midwest, and Canada, and coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters. Adoption and transportation fees vary depending on the individual dog and destination. Our goal is to give every dog the best possible chance of finding the right family, no matter where that family may live. Adopting a puppy means committing to much more than the adorable little dog in front of you today. It means providing training, veterinary care, patience, security, and companionship through puppyhood, adulthood, and eventually the senior years. Paolo is only six months old, with nearly his entire life still waiting to happen. He's ready for first adventures, new lessons, silly puppy moments, cozy nights, and years of memories. Give Paolo the chance to grow up beside you, and that little 9-pound puppy may just become your lifelong best friend. September 21, 2026, 6:36 pm
