Ripp is a 5-6 year old Jack Russel Terrier mix weighing around 28 pounds. He was surrendered to animal control in Brownsville a few months ago. He had a foster/adopter willing to take him and he went north to join him. Unfortunately, he developed an ear infection during the 15 hour transport ride and didn't want to be petted. Of course, that's what everyone that comes up on a new dog wants to do and things didn't go over well during unloading. The best remedy at the time was to keep him on transport for the return trip. His infection is long gone now and even when he returned and was still in pain wasn't that fractious with the people he knew. Still, he remains a dilemma that we don't know what to do with. We're trying to adopt him locally and thus avoiding the transport ride. He's a really nice dog that deserves a good home for the rest of his days. PM me if interested.
