Russell Rescue, Inc. of Texas

View all Dogs for Adoption


Russell Rescue, Inc. of Texas is a network of volunteers dedicated to rescuing and rehoming homeless jack russell terriers. All our dogs are in foster homes in all areas of Texas.

Our favorite saying is "Many people underestimate life with a Jack". Please read the Bad Dog Talk to see if a jack russell terrier is right for you.

If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please fill out an adoption application at www.russellrescue.com. The adoption fee is $200.00. All Jacks are spayed/neutered, current on vaccinations and on a heartworm preventative. Every adopter must sign a contract agreeing that they will provide good care for the dog.

Top Dog of the Month for Adoption: Twiggy

Twiggy is a 4 year old female who was rescued from horrible conditions at a puppy mill by the SPCA. Twiggy is shy and timid at first, but quickly warms up and wants to be a lap dog. Despite the conditions where Twiggy came from, she is still trusting of humans. She is currently working on crate training. Twiggy is looking for a special home that will give her patience and love.

We are so proud of our adopted dogs! They are best friends, loyal companions, sports champions and even movie stars! Some of them are featured above and in Happy Tails.


Please check the national page at www.russellrescue.com for more dogs for adoption in Texas and outside the area.

We have a large number of rescue dogs in need because of the economy. All donations are appreciated.

We are in great need of more foster homes in all areas of Texas. If you can foster a rescue dog, please fill out a Foster Home Application.

DISCLAIMER: As a courtesy, we will post for other agencies and owner surrenders. Russell Rescue is not responsible for these dogs, you must contact the agency or owner whose email is on the listing.
