Marcus & Milo

Jack Russell Terrier · Male

Milo & Marcus could live with children 10+, but will need to be the only animals in the home. Marcus and Milo are very typical little terriers…full of fun and full of mischief; they are the epitome of ‘big personalities in small bodies’. Marcus and Milo greet everyone as old friends they have known forever; they are both very sweet and affectionate boys who love a walk and love a cuddle. Milo particularly can be vocal with other dogs, and both dogs would prefer to stick with their own company over that of other dogs, though they are a super bonded pair and love spending all of their time together. Milo and Marcus were abandoned at our shelter so we have no history or background to share. They have both been well behaved since arriving at the shelter and would love to find a home happy to give the boys all the love and attention they desire. Marcus and Milo will need a home with an owner who is happy to manage the reactivity when other dogs get too close but, other than that, neither boy has put a paw wrong and have been a pleasure to get to know. Marcus has had skin issues with his feet which we have used Malaseb (a medicated shampoo) to help with. Milo also has a suspected neurological condition which our rehoming team will discuss in more detail with his potential new family. These issues will now be considered ‘pre-existing conditions’ on future insurance policies.

About Marcus & Milo

What life with Marcus & Milo looks like

Marcus & Milo is a large adult jack russell terrier dog waiting at Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter in Newcastle.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Marcus & Milo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Marcus & Milo?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Marcus & Milo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Marcus & Milo if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Marcus & Milo already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Marcus & Milo isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter early rather than rehoming privately; they know Marcus & Milo and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
