ADOPTED DOWN SOUTH 01-12-14 – A very sad start for this little pack of pups to be introduced to a world where they are thrown out like trash within the first few months of life. A southern volunteer was alerted to their awful predicament and she pulled them from the depths of their despair, dusted them off and took them into the shelter before a trash truck arrived. These little angels could have been lost forever, but here they have a second chance at life. Now these little heart breakers are seeking a forever home, someone to show them there is love in this world, because their first owners obviously did not.
With a mix, you never know how they will turn out. It could end up with traits from a cocker spaniel or a Jack Russell. It may end up getting some traits from each of the parents. Every dog in the litter will be completely different because it’s a mix of traits. Either way, they are both great dogs so don’t worry; the traits and their temperament will be good!
This charming heart breaking story of this little pack of pups will touch the lives of many, but only one lucky family will have the chance to adopt one of them and bring her into a home filled with love and understanding. If you are a runner or need a buddy to exercise with you, this is a perfect match for you. Exercise is a must; two one hour walks (one morning, one night) are probably a good place to start. Apply for adoption today and be the one that writes the last chapter of their rescue story.
BREED SUMMARY
AN OWNER OF A RED HEALER / JACK RUSSELL MIX WROTE:
I have a Red Heeler/Jack Russell mix but he definitely took after the Red Heeler in markings and personality. Scrappy Doo is a two year old, energetic, fun loving, protective part of our family. Thankfully we have a huge back yard and he uses all of it! He has been easy to train and is very smart. He chose my 15 year old as his human and will protect all of my children if he feels they are being threatened. He is great with my 9- and 11-year-old Shih Tzus. Wouldn’t trade him for the world! He keeps our family entertained with his tricks and his idea that he might actually “get the squirrel.”
The Blue Heeler is a highly intelligent, energetic, independent and obedient dog. They love to be around humans and mix very well with children who were around them from their puppy stage. They have a courageous personality makes them excellent watchdogs. They usually weigh about 35 to 45 pounds and live for 10 to 12 years. Heelers are farm dogs by nature and seldom do well in apartments or heavily urban atmospheres.
Jack Russell Terriers are the biggest dogs you’ll ever meet in such a tiny package. They are sharply intelligent and absolutely nothing gets past them. There is no fooling a Jack Russell. They are spirited terriers, fearless and sassy with minds of their own and aren’t above causing mischief to get a laugh. They are highly trainable and are famous for their high-jumping antics. When raised alongside children, Jack Russells make fine family dogs. They are exceptional athletes who excel in the competitive arena.
