Your new best friend will also get to know the people who are caring for him in the Denver Rescue shelters. It will be a great opportunity for the two of you to start getting to know each other before you decide to adopt a dog. Most dog rescue groups have a website that is filled with information about the animals and about finding your way to a home for a dog. Many of the dog rescue groups will also have members who will be able to help you through the adoption process. Before you even get to go to the shelter where your pet is, make sure that you have all the papers with you. Bring your vet’s certificate and ID, and any other necessary papers to prove that you are indeed the legitimate owner of this dog.
If you do find a Jack Russell Terrier at a shelter, you need to be careful when choosing a shelter to adopt from. Most shelter dogs will not be adopted out on their first try, because they were abandoned. If you do find a dog at a shelter that is in good health, the shelter dog likely came from a very loving home, and you may want to consider adopting that particular dog. Bringing a new pet to your home is a big responsibility, which requires patience and time. It can be very tough to find a Jack Russell Terrier in Colorado, but it is certainly not impossible.
You might want to call your local police station to double-check, just in case. The first place to look for Jack Russell Terriers is at the shelter or animal shelter nearest you. Most shelters provide free adoption services, and some will even allow you to make an appointment to come and meet your dog in person. Jack Russell Terriers is a very loving and intelligent breed, and they are typically active and happy dogs.
Bring your pet’s original collar with you, or have it ready there if they ask you for it. Some shelters allow only dogs on a particular leash, while others require a walk-in dog. If you are not lucky enough to find a dog at the local shelter, then you will have to search the internet for a Jack Russell Terrier rescue in your area.
