At Jack Russell Rescue we offered this limited
service for many years with no fee, but have asked that if this site
helps you then a donation would be appreciated, as this helps us
continue to help others that don't have owners looking after them.
Unfortunately in many cases the donation has not
been received, which I find very sad as we have many dogs that are
looking for homes and these donations help us to continue to save the
ones on deathrow.
In future a fee of $25.00 per month will apply.
I wish I didn't have to do this but I need to make sure that I am able
to continue to save the ones on deathrow.
Jack Russell Terriers need secure yards and
housing, they require commitment, human companionship, the opportunity
for play and exercise, and attention to training on an ongoing basis.
They can make great pets if their needs are met.
Your dog should visit a Vet every year for an
annual check-up and to discuss Vaccination status, as well as Vet
treatment when required at other times.
All dogs need tick/flea treatment/prevention,
worming treatments, (sometimes Heartworm assessment by vet, then
treatment if required) and ongoing heartworm prevention tablets after
that. Most common conditions are easily managed under Vet advice.
JRT's are generally (depending on their lifelong health) a long-lived breed, up to 15 years and sometimes beyond that.
