Family tragedy leaves three dogs alone, in need of loving home

These three Jack Russell Terriers are in desperate need of a forever home.

Camille Oakie Montagna with Furever Home Dog Rescue in Randolph sent me this plea she received from a friend who is looking to find these three Jack Russell Terriers a home.
These healthy, happy dogs were left alone after a family tragedy in which the husband killed his spouse and then took his own life.The children are in the custody of grandparents, but the family's dogs remain homeless at this time. These adorable dogs need homes by the end of the month or they will be placed in a high-kill shelter.

Missy is the mother dog. She is approximately 13 to 14 years old. Her two pups are Casper, approximately 11 years of age, and Shorty, who is approximately 12 years old. Because these dogs have always lived together, it would be best if they can remain together.

Anyone interested in giving these sweet dogs another home, is asked to contact Amy at aloggs69@yahoo.com as soon as possible.

  1. They are so adorable! This is so sad! If my doggie liked other doggies I'd take one!
