Ellie (Bonded Pair with Freddie) - Jack Russell Terrier Dog for Adoption in Westwood, New Jersey

Meet Ellie (Bonded with Freddie)

Ellie is an 11-year-old sweetheart weighing just 15–17 pounds, and she’s bonded with her best friend Freddie. These two share a special connection and are looking for a loving home where they can stay together.

Ellie is house trained and crate trained, making her an easy addition to the right family. She’s partially leash trained and would benefit from a little patience and gentle guidance on walks. She does well with children and other dogs, but she would do best in a home without cats.

At her age, Ellie is all about the simple joys — cozy beds, soft blankets, and being close to the people she loves. She still has so much love to give and is hoping to spend her golden years safe, comfortable, and cherished.
If you’re ready to open your heart to Ellie and Freddie, they’re ready to fill your home with double the love.
