**UPDATE** Anyone looking for a Jack Russell pup?

UPDATE:  SHE FOUND A HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!  Yay for social media =)

 

Here is an email I got from a friend... let me know if you want to see pictures or want contact info:

My neighbor has a female Jack Russell names Sophie that is a purebred, she is 5 months with her shots.  She is absolutely adorable and a sweetheart.  My neighbor should never own a pet of any kind.  She neglects and mistreats them.  Prior to Sophie she had two other dogs one she left outside in the winter and he froze to death (this was prior to her living next door to us) the second we ended up taking care of until we found a better home because she went on vacation for a week, tied the dog to the fence and left her there.  I came home and found her pinned under our fence. When I saw that she got another dog I was so upset, everyday my husband and I bring her over to play with our dogs and try to give her the love and attention she needs.  My neighbor has had Sophie for about 2 months and is already looking to get rid of her. I asked what she was planning on doing with her and she said give her away for free, take her to a dirt road and let her go, or take her to the pound.  I am sure you can guess this is not a favorite neighbor and I am counting the days till we move!  So I am on a mission to get Sophie the home she deserves.  She has a great temperament, very sweet, crate and potty trained and just wants love and attention.  She is great with my two 100+ lbs labs, they play great with her.  If I didn?t have two already I would take her in a minute.  If you are interested or know anyone please let me know ASAP.  Yesterday we had her over to play and I noticed she looks to have a sore in her ear, it had dry blood in it.  I cleaned it out and it didn?t seem to bother her.  It breaks my heart she isn?t getting the proper care she needs.

  • Unfortunately DH will not let us get a dog, but this story just broke my heart.  WTF is wrong with people?  I'm glad your friend is stepping up, but seriously I would call the cops on that woman.  I'm sure they can get her on animal cruelty.

    Someone should tie her to a fence.

  • Ugh, this is terrible! What was this woman thinking?  And how is she allowed to have pets after killing one?  And it sounds like she even openly tells the story about freezing a dog to death. 

    I would take Sophie in a heartbeat but we already have a Jack Russell and I don't think he would like to have more company - he's not all that nice.  Plus Sophie would be our third dog. Yikes!

    Please keep us updated.  I hope Sophie finds a good home!

     

  • Disgusting! I agree that the cops need to be called on this women.

  • Where is this dog located? Maybe the rescue H and I work with can take her into a foster home asap, did this friend or whatever call animal cruelty on her? She needs to be reported ASAP!

  • Oh my gosh, she is adorable!  I want a second puppy so bad and I love that she is a JR like Cody!  I emailed DH but I am guessing it will be a no, because he only wants 1 dog.... Worth a shot asking!
  • Nope, Chris shot me down.  I even tried for just being a foster home and I got shot down again.  Really annoying when I don't get my way, haha.
  • what a cute dog.  We can't have a dog at our house (not home enough).  I hope she finds a good home.  I hate it when people treat their pets like that, so sad.
