This cutesy pup is Ori, a Rat Terrier breed surrendered to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/19. She weighs 15 pounds and is about one year old. This happy, fun-loving girl has so much personality! She is lively and active and has such a delightful nature! Ori is friendly, A-OK with being petted and wanted to climb into my lap. She’s actually just the right size for a lapdog! She walks beautifully on a leash and her owners reported that she is house trained. they also reported that she lived with and is friendly with other dogs, cats, and children! She is crazy about treats and takes them very politely. She was not interested in toys or balls, just wanted to interact with a human friend and explore the yard (and eat treats). She is a delightful youngster and will make someone a wonderful pet.
