Meet Olivia Calm, Friendly, and Ready to Grow Up With Her Forever Family Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Mix Gender: Female | Age: 5/31/2026 Weight: 9 lbs (small) Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats ✔️ Personality: ❤️ Friendly | Calm | Sweet | Social Medical: ✔️ Vaccinations Current | Spay: Pending at Age-Appropriate Time Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue coordinates safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Olivia is a sweet Jack Russell Terrier mix weighing 9 pounds currently. For such a young puppy, she has a wonderfully calm and friendly personality and gets along with everyone—including dogs, children, and cats. She's the kind of puppy who brings a lovely combination of youthful curiosity and an easygoing nature. Olivia is still discovering the world around her, and she has nearly her entire life ahead of her to learn, explore, and grow alongside her forever family. As a Jack Russell Terrier mix, Olivia may share traits commonly associated with the breed, including being intelligent, curious, playful, alert, energetic, and devoted to her people. Her calm personality today is wonderful, though adopters should remember that puppy personalities and activity levels can continue developing as dogs mature. Olivia would benefit from daily age-appropriate exercise, playtime, interactive toys, positive socialization, mental enrichment, and plenty of affection. Her friendly nature gives her a great foundation, and continued positive experiences will help her grow into a confident adult dog. Puppy Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Olivia is still very much a puppy. Her new family should be prepared for all the learning that comes with raising a young dog. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so her adopter should continue working on house training, leash manners, basic commands, recall, appropriate chewing, household boundaries, and positive socialization. Even naturally calm puppies need consistency and structure. Using positive reinforcement, patience, and repetition will help Olivia understand what is expected of her while building a strong bond with her family. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to understand her new household routine 3 Months to fully settle in, build trust, and feel at home These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Olivia should be allowed to adjust at her own pace. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Olivia's vaccinations are current for her age, and her spay will be completed when she reaches the appropriate age. Because she is still a young puppy, her adopter should continue working with a veterinarian to ensure she receives any remaining age-appropriate puppy vaccinations and boosters and stays on schedule for her future spay. Her ongoing care should include routine veterinary examinations, parasite prevention, dental care, quality puppy nutrition, healthy growth monitoring, nail care, and veterinary treatment whenever necessary. Because Olivia is still growing, exercise should remain age appropriate. Excessive repetitive jumping, forced long-distance running, and other strenuous repetitive activities should be avoided while her body is developing. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Olivia, please complete an adoption application: 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.

Adopting Olivia means committing to the puppy she is today and every stage of life that follows. She'll need continued training, veterinary care, patience, safety, companionship, and a family prepared to love her for life. Olivia is calm, friendly, and already showing what a lovely little companion she can be. She gets along with dogs, kids, and even cats—and at only four months old, her whole life is still waiting to begin. Now she just needs the family she'll get to grow up with.October 23, 2026, 9:42 pm

  Meet Mickey A Little Dog With a Big Personality and a Heart Full of Happiness! Breed: Jack Russell Terrier Mix Gender: Male | Age: 1 Year DOB: October 23, 2025 (Estimated) Weight: 9 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Happy | Playful | Energetic | Fun-Loving | Friendly Medical: Neutered ✔️ | Vaccinations Up to Date ✔️ | Microchip: Not Provided Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Safe transportation coordinated for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Mickey, an adorable 1-year-old Jack Russell Terrier mix weighing just 9 pounds! This handsome little guy may be small in size, but he has a big personality and a wonderful enthusiasm for life. Mickey is a happy, playful boy who loves having fun and is ready to bring laughter, excitement, and companionship into someone's home. With his cheerful personality and youthful energy, he's a wonderful candidate for a family looking for a small dog with plenty of spirit. At just one year old, Mickey is entering young adulthood. He's moved beyond the earliest stages of puppyhood but still has lots of energy, curiosity, and opportunities to learn new things. Whether he's enjoying playtime, exploring his surroundings, or spending time with his favorite people, Mickey has the potential to become a wonderful lifelong companion. About the Jack Russell Terrier Breed Jack Russell Terriers are known for their intelligence, athleticism, curiosity, confidence, and lively personalities. Originally developed as working terriers, these small dogs were bred to be energetic, determined, and quick-thinking. As a Jack Russell Terrier mix, Mickey may share several typical breed characteristics: Playful and energetic: Jack Russells often enjoy interactive games, regular walks, and opportunities to explore. Intelligent and curious: They are often quick learners who benefit from positive reinforcement and mental stimulation. Affectionate and loyal: Many develop strong bonds with their families and enjoy spending time with their favorite people. Confident and spirited: Despite their small size, Jack Russells often have bold personalities and plenty of enthusiasm. Active and athletic: They typically enjoy activities that keep both their minds and bodies engaged. Mickey's future family should understand that small dogs still need regular exercise, training, and mental enrichment. Although he weighs only 9 pounds, Mickey may have the energy and determination commonly associated with terrier breeds. His ideal home will provide daily walks, interactive playtime, positive training, and plenty of companionship. Mickey is proof that happiness doesn't come in one size. Sometimes, it comes in a tiny 9-pound package with a big personality! Training, Adjustment & What to Expect At one year old, Mickey is a young adult who will benefit from continued training, positive socialization, and a consistent daily routine. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be prepared to continue working on house training if needed, leash manners, basic obedience, recall, appropriate chewing, calm greetings, and household boundaries. Because Jack Russell Terriers are intelligent and can be independent thinkers, Mickey will benefit from positive reinforcement, patience, consistency, and short, engaging training sessions. Interactive toys, puzzle feeders, scent games, and supervised outdoor activities can help keep his curious mind occupied. Exercise & Daily Activities Mickey may enjoy activities such as: Daily walks and opportunities to explore new environments. Interactive games and supervised playtime. Positive reinforcement training with treats and praise. Puzzle toys and enrichment activities. Spending quality time with his family. Despite his small size, Mickey should not be expected to spend all day indoors without exercise or stimulation. A balanced routine that includes physical activity, mental enrichment, and relaxation will help him thrive. Living With Other Pets Mickey is considered suitable for homes with other dogs and children, with appropriate introductions and supervision. His compatibility with cats has not yet been confirmed. Jack Russell Terriers can have strong chasing instincts because of their working-dog background, so introductions to cats and other small animals should be approached carefully. Because Mickey weighs only 9 pounds, interactions with larger dogs and young children should also be supervised to help prevent accidental injury. The 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to adjust to a new environment. 3 Days: Time to decompress, observe his surroundings, and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Time to understand his new household routine, build confidence, and become more comfortable. 3 Months: Time to strengthen his bond with his family, settle into daily life, and begin feeling truly at home. These are general guidelines rather than strict deadlines. Every dog adjusts at their own pace. Mickey deserves a family who will provide patience, encouragement, structure, and reassurance as he settles into his forever home. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Mickey is neutered and up to date on his vaccinations, making him ready to begin the next chapter of his life with a loving family. His future adopters should continue providing regular veterinary care and preventive healthcare throughout his life. As a small Jack Russell Terrier mix, Mickey will need: High-quality nutrition appropriate for his age, size, and activity level. Regular veterinary examinations to monitor his overall health. Daily exercise and interactive playtime to support his physical and mental well-being. Dental care, which is particularly important for small dogs that may be more susceptible to dental disease. Routine grooming and nail maintenance for his comfort and health. Consistent flea, tick, and parasite prevention as recommended by his veterinarian. Continued training and mental enrichment to keep him happy and engaged. A safe, secure home environment with appropriate supervision during outdoor activities. Important Small-Breed Considerations Because Mickey weighs only 9 pounds, his family should be mindful of his small size. Small dogs can be vulnerable to accidental injuries from falls, rough handling, or interactions with much larger animals. His future family should also monitor his weight carefully, as even small amounts of excess weight can affect a little dog's joints and overall health. Jack Russell mixes may be prone to certain orthopedic concerns, including kneecap problems such as patellar luxation. Regular veterinary examinations can help identify any potential issues early. Adopting Mickey is a lifelong commitment that includes providing proper nutrition, veterinary care, training, exercise, safety, companionship, and unconditional love.
