Raintree Jacks Jack Russell Rescue

I'm Teresa and we love Jack Russells here at Raintree! We are in a rural section of Kershaw County South Carolina, and offer lots of room for the little white dogs to run and play. Our goal is to rescue as many jrts from kill shelters and private homes that can no longer care for the dogs. We decided this was what we are suppose to do after losing Torrie, our little rescue from southern Florida, back in March of 2013. She was taken from her home where she was emaciated, had no hair due to fleas and ticks and malnourishment. She lived in filth and was 35 to 40% underweight from starvation. After several months here at Raintree, Torrie went from a wild-eyed mess on Prazac to a wonderful loving little dog. It took a lot of time and patience, but it was worth all the effort it took to rehabilitate her. She crossed the Rainbow Bridge March 23, 2013. Most likely due to her tragic life prior to coming to SC with us, she developed an enlarged heart... and it just gave out. What a short 15 months we had with that beautiful little dog. She will forever be missed... and loved. These precious little dogs we rescue will be fully vetted, spayed or neutered, heart worm tested, and loved before finding new forever homes. We are a private, self-funded rescue that loves the breed and want to help every jack and jack mix we can! Monetary gifts to the dogs, donations of food, collars, leashes, harnesses, toys, vet care, beds or anything dog related will be appreciated. Our vet is Dr. Hamilton Tetterton, Mill Village Veternarian in Camden, SC. If you or anyone you know would like to adopt a Jack Russell, or can no longer care for their Jack Russell and wish to rehome them, please let us know.
