My Nonprofit Reviews

My sweet 17-year-old girl, Neely followed her brother Frazier (a GAJRR alumni) over the Rainbow Bridge in August 2020. For the first time in 40+ years, I was without a fur kid. Two days after Neely passed, Mama Donna called me. She said she hoped it wasn't too soon, but she'd had a call from a couple in SC who needed to rehome a 2-year-old Jack, but they wanted him to go straight into another home. I thought about it for a minute and told her to send me some photos. I called Donna back told her I was interested. Oliver's first mom and I had a very nice phone conversation and the following weekend we met up and Oliver's now living the only-dog life in Tennessee. Not only do the great folks at GA Jack Russell Rescue take excellent care in finding homes for their Jacks, they care about all Jacks. Oliver and I are very grateful they do. Bet you can't guess which photo was last year's Christmas card?!

I found Georgia Jack Russell Rescue in 2012 through their Facebook page. They needed help transporting Katie and Gracie to their forever home in Ann Arbor, MI. I contacted them and offered to help. Super Sal brought the girls to my house in Knoxville, TN and I handed them off in Cincinnati, OH for the final leg of their trip. That transport began an association that is near and dear to my heart. I became a sponsor for Skip and then Hartley after Skip crossed the Rainbow Bridge, and helped on several additional northern transports. When I visited the ranch while in GA for a wedding, I was awe-struck at the dedication, love, and commitment of Donna and the volunteers. These folks are truly dedicated to finding these fur babies forever homes, and caring for the senior and special-needs pups. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe these dedicated folks.

In 2014 after deciding my Jack, Neely, needed a sibling, Frazier left the ranch for his forever home with us in Tennessee. Many thanks to Donna and Team Russell for saving this sweet boy for me.
