About This Dog for Adoption

Tofu's ideal home

Tofu is a gentle, affectionate 9-year-old boy who’s looking for a second chance at life with a family who can help him feel safe and secure. He can live with calm, respectful primary school-aged children and would be happiest in a moderate to quiet home where he can settle in at his own pace.

Tofu will need to be the only pet in the home, but he really enjoys walking with other dogs and would love to have a few regular walking buddies. That said, he does tend to bark at dogs when he's on lead – we believe this may be due to the stress of being around so many other dogs in a kennel environment, and with time, patience, and a more peaceful routine, this may improve.

Because Tofu came to us as a stray, we don’t know much about his past. However, we do know he’s shown signs of trying to escape, so a secure garden is essential. Thorald does need a family who can offer him time, consistency, and gentle encouragement to help him settle in and thrive.

Could you be Tofu's perfect match?

Tofu is already showing lovely manners on the lead. He’s kept his kennel clean, which suggests he may have some housetraining, though he may need a little refresher as he adjusts to home life. Tofu absolutely loves company and prefers not to be left alone for long, so a home where someone is around most of the time would suit him best. He’s been a joy on car rides and enjoys getting out and about for walks in new places. His favourite moments are when he’s simply spending time with people, taking in the world at a gentle pace. Thorold has a sweet, soulful nature that shines through once he feels comfortable – he just needs the right family to show him the love and stability he deserves.

Jack Russell Buying Checklist

We highly recommend every buyer reads through the below advice when purchasing or rehoming a Jack Russell.

View the animal in the place it was born and raised - check for genuine home environments if buying privately, or the quality of the breeders set-up if applicable.
If viewing a puppy under 8 weeks, by law they MUST be seen with their mum.
Make sure the animal's old enough to be rehomed. 8 weeks should be the earliest a puppy can be rehomed.
By law, all dogs MUST be microchipped
Review and verify any documents, such as KC registration paperwork where applicable

Avoid Potential Scams

There are a number of red flags to look out for when purchasing a new puppy:

Seller demands a deposit without allowing you to see the dog first - never send any money before meeting the animal in person
Seller is reluctant to send you additional photos or videos
Seller offers to deliver the dog/puppy
Seller asks to meet in a mutual location
Seller uses fake or stolen photos from the internet. Always carry out a "Google image search".
Seller asks to immediately switch to communication off the Jack Russell Owners website
Seller uses a different phone number to the one listed on the website - especially if that phone number is in one of the advert images

Although we have a number of automated systems in place to prevent scam and fraudulant adverts, these can never be 100% accurate and its important to use caution when buying online. We do not accept any responsibility for transactions between our users, especially when our safe buying advice is not followed.
