My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

From Rags to riches!!! This is Rags short for Ragamuffin and also answers to Rag Tag. This senior is believed to be a Yorkie Poodle mix, approximately 9 years old, and a tiny little 11 pound guy. He likes car rides and he LOVES playing fetch! He is a professional fetch player; he is up for fetch 24/7!! Rags speaks and turns in little circles when he’s happy or excited. He likes to be near his people whether lounging on the couch or snuggling in bed. If you are not a fan of doggie kisses, then Rags just might be your guy, as Rags knows how to hold his licker! Don’t be fooled by Rag’s sweet face, because this little dog can pack a lot of attitude. Rag’s triggers include being nippy when things are not going his way, such as going into his crate “at an off schedule time.” We are currently working on that with treats, praise and reassurance. Rags is also a sharp dressed guy, but his mood tolerance level varies whether or not he’s willing to have clothes coming off or being put on. Lastly, He is finicky about being picked up. Sometimes he’s absolutely fine with it, most of the time he grumbles (low passive growl), other times he becomes fearful and defensive. Despite all his quirks, Rags coexists well with other animals including dogs and cats, but he does not engage with them actively. He is potty trained for the most part, although he is still working on perfecting the art. On the plus side if he needs a bath, he is surprisingly cooperative. Dare we say he LIKES getting a bath? We think it’s all the massages and attention he gets while in there that he simply can’t refuse. Because even though he’s kinda funny about his space, he really does love receiving loving pets and scratches on his head, back, chin and even tummy. Just to be on the safe side Rags would probably do his best in a home without small children due to his temperament. If you are wiling to work with Rags and open your hearts to his quirky ways, please put in your application at www.pawpatroldayton.com/adopt. His adoption fee is $260. He is vaccinated, heartworm tested, microchipped and neutered.. All of our animals are vaccinated, micro-chipped and spayed/neutered before being adopted.
