Russell is a pretty typical Jack Russell terrier – very cute, very friendly, and very energetic.

He is house trained, crate trained and has good manners. He likes other well-mannered dogs nad has lived with cats and small children. Russell enjoys long walks and car rides. He came to the shelter because his owners’ new grandchild is allergic to him.

Russell is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He is at the El Dorado County Animal Services shelter in Meyers, along with many other dogs and cats who are waiting for their new homes. Go online to see photos and description of all pets at the shelter.

Call (530) 573.7925 for directions, hours, and other information on adopting a pet. For spay-neuter assistance for South Tahoe residents, go online.
