Story
Lucy Lu enjoyed much love in her previous home. Maybe a bit too much was in the form of food, for this sweet 10- to 11-year-old rat terrier arrived at her New Rattitude foster home very much over her ideal weight of about 15 lbs. Lucy is too embarrassed to tell us what the scales currently say, but she's proud that she has already shed 1.6 lbs. with copious walks and playtime with her canine foster brother, as well as feedings carefully measured by her foster mom. Lucy needs her adopter to commit to helping her complete her journey to good health.   Before coming to NR, Lucy lived with one person and a cat, so she's shy around new people, barking at them and then avoiding them. If left alone, she'll approach when she's ready; people ignoring this advice will likely be growled at. Lucy still gets along with cats and has learned a lot about living with other dogs. She enjoys playing with them and with toys. You should see her fine game of tug-of-war! She occasionally gets growly and tries to lay claim to certain toys or space, but her foster mom has taught her about sharing by permitting access to these cherished resources only when her behavior is appropriate. Lucy would be fine as an only dog or as a member of a small group of easy-going canine friends.   Lucy is reliably house-trained as long as you take her out or provide access to a dog door. She's also crate trained and will sleep in her crate at night and for naps. However, she would LOVE to sleep in your bed. She's such an affectionate pup and an easy keeper, how could you possibly say no? You can see more photos of Lucy at  https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/lucylu . Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info. August 14, 2024, 8:54 pm

Story
Gus is a very Handsome and Sweet boy! Extremely affectionate lap dog. Gus is a little shy at first, but once he knows you for a couple of days he is so cuddly and sweet. He almost wants to crawl into your body type of snuggles if that makes sense. He is very loyal and smart. Almost too loyal since he is jumping on his foster mom's lap at every single opportunity. He is being fostered with 2 large dogs and his brother Dale. The two little dogs play hard together and are starting to warm up to their huge foster brother GSD. He just wants to play with them so badly, so they are starting to consider it. Gus bonded to me (foster mom) immediately so if adopted into a house with a male, I would suggest the guy walk and feed him to start with, that way the bonding process goes faster. He does cuddle on my husband, but since I'm home all day and husband isn't, he is slowly starting to warm up to him more. He likes other dogs and enjoys playing with them. Walks well and love his walks and toys in the house. Gus is a 2.5 year old rat terrier mix. He is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccinations. He weighs approximately 15 lbs. He seems to prefer other smaller dogs and enjoys playing with them. Even in our home he is more comfortable with our chow mix compared the the GSD since there is a 20 pound difference and major height difference. Gus gets along very well with his other relatives named Dale and Curly, also with Valley Dogs Rescue. If you are open to two dogs, these guys are so entertaining! Gus does well with other dogs and older kids. Cats unsure, but I think he would be ok! If you would like to learn more about Gus and schedule a meet and greet, please reach out to Brittany at brittanyladrech@yahoo.com

🌟Adopt Radicchio 🌟 Hello there! I’m Radicchio and I am a young momma! I welcomed my four precious pups into the world on June 14th. I have three lovely girls and one charming boy! I just turned two years old and I appear to be a rat terrier mix. I am a dedicated mother who has cared for my puppies with all the love and attention they need. As my puppies grow and get ready to move to foster homes in pairs, it's finally time for me to enjoy some well-deserved relaxation and happiness for myself. I am a sweet and affectionate dog who is eager to find my forever home where I can thrive and receive the love I so richly deserve. I have shown incredible resilience and strength as a mother, and now I am ready to focus on myself and enjoy the joys of being a cherished family member. Are you ready to open your heart to meet me? https://forms.gle/676xUcmeQi9kdjn96
