Story
This goofy boy is Link! He was found as a stray and sadly never reclaimed. Link is about 22lbs and our best guess at breed is some type of terrier mix. He's guessed to be around 3.5 years old. He's an active boy who loves to go on walks and sniff around. When he's not on walks, he will sit with you and enjoy some pets and treats. Link has done fine with the other small/medium dogs so far at the shelter. He's ready to find a forever home to cherish him!

Story
A royal and refined lady, Princess Abby is an absolutely precious young rat terrier/Chihuahua mix. Although timid when she first arrived to her foster home, Abby has blossomed into an 'in charge' and friendly little character. She is about 3 years old and weighs 13 lbs. Abby has met and done very well with no aggression towards adults, children, young children, dogs, and cats. She gets along nicely with the cats she currently lives with and will even nap with them on the couch. She has a very strong preference for older women, but is friendly towards everyone.   Abby likes to go on walks several times during the day and has had no accidents indoors since settling in at her foster home. She likes nothing better than to greet other dogs and people while out for a stroll. She does have a strong prey instinct and will chase any wildlife she encounters. Abby is so polite that she goes to her crate on her own and will sleep there all night with a Kong and a blanket. She knows plenty of words, such as sit and wait, and will offer a paw to shake on the cue 'pretty girl.' Now that this princess has been rescued, it's time for her to live a fairytale life with her forever family! For more photos of Abby, go to https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/abby 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
