The long distance adoption process includes talking to the foster they are living with in the south. Roughly 90% of our dogs are successfully long distance adopted and 10% adopted locally.

This MERCEDES is top of the line and is fueled by love, cuddles and kindness!

Meet Mercedes - an almost 2 year old, Jack Russell Terrier mix, who weighs 30 pounds (as of 8/25/25). She was transferred from a local shelter in Mississippi and is now looking for her forever family!

Her foster shares: "Mercedes is an active and athletic girl, who loves to explore the world and to stay busy! Mercedes is a medium sized girl, and a perfect size and weighs just under 30 lbs. She is learning her leash manners, and is very treat motivated which helps in her reward training. She will sit for her food and treats, and is very gentle when taking food from your hand. We know she will fit into any family. While she hasn't met children since entering our care, she has a great temperament and should be fine with them. She likes to be where the action is and her ideal home would have a fenced-in yard for her to explore, run and play. She has done well in multiple play groups with other dogs. We recommend keeping her away from smaller animals (like cats) as she is very interested and has prey drive.

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

PLEASE READ: If a dog is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid. If you are considering a dog but don't apply right away please make sure to search for the dog by name if the link you have no longer works.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
