In the shelter’s words

DOB 8/16/26 Hey there, everyone! I’m Andy, a friendly, inquisitive, and very playful chestnut and white Rat/ Jack Russell Terrier mix fella. I weighed 12 pounds when I was 5 months old and shouldn’t weigh more than 20-25 pounds at maturity. I am devoted to all ages of hoomans in my foster home but am particularly partial to the grandkids. I adore playing with the small dogs, and I get along great with the resident cats. I’m already crate-trained and almost house-trained, which is another bonus. A HOPE volunteer found me wandering in the parking lot of her apartment complex when I was just 7 weeks old with no momma or siblings in sight. I’ll never tell how I ended up alone or if my owners abandoned me when they moved out, but thank heavens, my new foster mom offered me a safe haven until I can find my forever home. Now I’m ready to bring my happy and adoring self to create love and laughter in my new forever family. Could that be with you? Then arrange to meet me today! My heart has so much love to give – all I need is YOU! HOPE ID D26-1016-0054 Andy’s $200 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for heartworms, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment for heartworms and fleas.
