Story
Are you ready for a life of fun? Smart and sweet, Cookie is about 1 year-old, and is as playful as a puppy. She loves to chase a ball or toys inside or out. She's 14 lbs. with short legs, but she's speedy as can be! Cookie will carry your slippers away if you aren't careful.  She is a bit timid when meeting someone new, but warms up in just few minutes! Cookie loves other small dogs, but is frightened of big dogs. She will do best in a home with another small or medium-sized dog. She also likes cats! She loves to play outside, and she is learning to walk on a leash.  She's a 'smart cookie' and is learning tricks very quickly. She is not quite house-trained yet, but she's clever and will get there with guidance from her new family. She is also learning to use a pee pad to reduce indoor accidents. Cookie is a great young lady who is ready for love and fun in her forever home. Is it with you?  For some more adorable photos, see  https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/cookie . 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. December 19, 2024, 10:37 pm

Story
Say hello to Franklin - an affectionate, playful boy who is almost 1 year old and weighs 16 lbs. Franklin delights his family with his antics and silliness. He brings joy wherever he goes. This sweet, young pup is house-trained (as long as he has a routine and regular opportunities to potty outside), walks nicely on a leash, and loves all the humans he meets. He also gets along with the other dogs in his foster home and often tries to engage them in a game of tug or trading squeaky toys. Franklin still has some puppy tendencies, especially chewing on things he shouldn't, so his foster family makes sure to have appropriate chew toys and bully sticks for him.  Franklin would love to have a family who will give him regular exercise with another younger dog as a playmate, along with someone who is home at least part of the day (he is not a big fan of being left alone, especially in a crate). Please visit this link for more photos of this special boy:  https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/franklin .Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old.
