Are you a world traveler? We think Meatball wants to be your co-Pilot. Always looking to load up and go.Meatball - this handsome fella is approx 5-7 yrs old and down right adorable! Meatball will be the joy of his owners life. He will need that owner who understands he has some insecurities that once his owner become aware rhey seem to not be as large as he makes them. He is a great dog, playful, loving, energetic and loves to lay in your lap.  He’s a typical Jack. He will resource guard his person but when he’s put down on the ground, he won’t start a fight with others. If they start it, he’ll react. As we say in the south: 'If you don't start none, there won't be none.'  He likes routine and is just waiting to be told what you want. He waits to be asked to do things, invited to laps, etc.If you are looking for a buddy to hang out with this is your guy - please apply @ Russellrescuetn.com for Meatballhttp://www.russellrescuetn.com/application-for-adoption/November 5, 2024, 12:34 am

Meet Rascal!!  He is a 3 year old, 16-pound chihuahua mix with the cutest underbite you’ve ever seen. This little guy is the full package: kennel trained, housetrained, and an expert at burrowing under blankets like a cozy little mole. Rascal’s favorite part of the day? Greeting his people with pure joy when they walk through the door and then settling in for a cuddle session. He’s affectionate, charming, and knows how to work those puppy eyes for extra snuggles.Rascal is as easygoing as they come—he gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and even cats. He has excellent manners and a soft spot for meaty wet food toppers (and really, who doesn’t?). This sweet, snuggly boy is ready to find his forever person to adore and share his warm little heart with.

Story
Say hello to Archie!! This cutie is three years old, UTD on all vaccinations, neutered,  completed heartworm treatment and on Nexguard. Archie is definitely a house dog.  After he does his business, he looks in the windows until you come for him! Archie loves his people. He runs in reverse in front of you so he knows exactly where you are going - it is adorable. He loves to sit on his bottom next to you, and lean against your shoulder while getting belly rubs. He loves stuffed toys and is learning to retrieve a tennis ball. This sweet baby is ready for a foster or adopter. He loves to play with other dogs. Archie does bark when strangers enter the house. This seems to be more from fear than aggression. Please consider this pup to be a top notch pet and a friend for life.This cutie pie was almost completely shut down when pulled from the pound. He didn’t eat or drink for two days and was lifeless in my lap. Things began to slowly change the third day. Archie liked ear rubs. His appetite began to return and a glimmer of personality started to sparkle. After two weeks with us, he is perfectly happy with non stop petting in my lap! He hops backward if he wants to get away quickly! Archie’s loves chew toys and piles them up in his favorite chair. He gets along really well with our senior JRT. This baby won’t let you get out of sight!! He needs more time in a good foster home to maintain trust. Boarding would be devastating to his progress. He is currently on heartworm treatment and is the most compliant pill taker I have ever seen. Listen to your heart and step up for Archie.I received a call about Archie who was being held at an animal shelter in Mississippi. He wasn’t adjusting and was shutting down. I picked him up and brought him home. He collapsed in my lap, not responding but obviously grateful for comfort. Archie is blossoming quickly. His visit to the vet revealed he is 22 pounds and3-5 years old. He received all of his shots and was neutered. He is receiving treatment for hookworms and is heartworm positive. Despite having a couple of health issues, Archie is beginning to shine. He has become an active, wiggly young fellow. Archie wants to be a lap dog but is so excited, he stands and wiggles instead! He shakes hands!! He isn’t a big barker.His appetite has improved and he eats well now. Archie takes his meds easily. He would love playmates. He tries to play with our elderly JRT, but Scout says nope. I haven’t been able to expose him to children, so no recommendation on that. I think after he settles down he will be a great pet. He is already doing well on a leash. Available dogs are met by appointment only and pre-approved adopters ONLY.Our dogs are currently in a foster homes which can answer your questions better than anyone else. We promise our fosters that we will qualify all potential adopters before we ask them to communicate with potential adopters.The application is the first step.
