2 rescue Jack Russell Terriers are available for adoption in Perth right now, listed by Dogs' Refuge Home, Swan Animal Haven. Every listing links straight to the rescue.
The Jack Russell Terrier is a small-sized dog with high energy needs. Those two things — the space it needs and the exercise or grooming it expects — matter more day to day than the breed label itself, especially with rescue dogs, where many are crosses.
Shelter breed labels in Australia are usually a visual guess rather than a DNA result, so a dog listed as a Jack Russell Terrier may well be a cross. That is worth knowing before you rule a listing in or out: temperament and the individual dog's history tell you far more than the name on the card.
Right now Jack Russell Terriers in Perth are listed by Dogs' Refuge Home, Swan Animal Haven. Applications, home checks and adoption decisions are handled by the rescue directly — LocalPetFinder brings the listings together so you do not have to check each rescue separately, and does not take a fee.

Not for sale, for adoption, which is usually the better deal. Every Jack Russell Terrier here comes from a Perth-area rescue rather than a breeder or a classified seller, and the adoption fee already covers desexing, vaccination and microchipping. That fee is typically a few hundred dollars, against often several thousand from a breeder with none of the vet work done. If you searched "jack russell terrier for sale perth", adopting gets you a vetted dog for a fraction of the price.
