Story
MEET LILY! So, this is Lily. She is a Pedigree Rat Terrier. She was 8 years old in October. She is house broken and loves to be in your lap all the time. Wonderful lap dog, making up for years of neglect. She has never been allowed to be a dog. She has been bred every time she has come in heat. Every time! She was infested with fleas when I got her, and carting with her 4 nursing puppies. She is such an alert bright older girl. Full of life. Loves to run and play. Devoted to her pups. They are now weaned. Lily will take her, "No More Babies Challenge" the first week in January She has received all vaccinations and Bortatella. She is heartworm negative and takes Heartguard Plus. Due to 7 yrs without vet care, she will receive booster shot when spayed in Jan. She needs love. Lots of love and a place to call forever home now. She loves to play with all her new found toys, especially crinckle paper toys and the ones that squeak. Does anyone have a special heart for a special older lady? You will need quite a fence. She can climb over a standard chain link and runs like the wind. However, at this time she shows no interest in leaving the yard. She is house broken. Looks you in the eyes and paws up to go out. Comes in on her own through the doggie door but prefers to have door opend to go out...like she needs permission or something. She truly is a wonderful lady!

Story
Phoebe is a definite Rat Terrier mix around 3-4 years of age. She was found running at large with little Rachel in Taney Co. Missouri. She is a littel shy at first, but a super sweet girl. She does climb out of the pup pen that is 4ft tall so a secure yard for her to play in with a privacy fence would be great! She is a little alpha acting with other dogs, but does like their company. Active girl and super pretty too!  ##1734559##

No fault of his little Luke was surrendered to us. He needs an active home with older kiddos as he loves to jump and chase as most Terriers do. He is a fun boucy little guy that needs a fenced yard or to be on leash when outside due to also his terrier breed.  ##1857570##

Story
Little Yeti came to us via another rescue as she and her sis Cherry were terrified in their facility as they have a lot of big dogs and they bark alot. Yeti is the more outgoing of the two girls that originally came out of a hoarding case in Texas we are told. She does take a bit to warm up and wants you to think she is a nipper. She has not bitten anyone but will act like she wants to. Because of my years of loving on small dogs that have never known love I can tell you she isn't mean. Just very insecure. She is the first to me after a few weeks here and loves to give kisses and have me hold her. This kid will need a very secure fenced in yard and someone that understands she will take a few days to warm up. She just needs to learn you mean her no harm and are there souly to give all the loves and all the treats. ##2186548##

Story
Crumpet is a little spitfire full of spunk and energy with just enough snuggle to be a perfect family companion. She loves to play with toys and especially likes chasing her fur friends around. She is a very outgoing and confident girl who likes to initiate play. She will need another dog friend in her new home to play with and learn from. She is doing great with going potty on a pad and is working on going outside. She’s just 12 weeks old and will need a family who can give her consistent training. She’s very smart and will master her skills in no time! A fenced yard would be best for her as she is not leash trained, and because of her love for running and exploring. She’s a little girl, we are guessing she may be 35 lbs full grown, but that is just a guess. We have no idea what breed mix she is, she’s just a cute, soft and sweet mutt! After a good romp around with her fur friends, Crumpet will snuggle up for love and belly rubs with her people. She will be a wonderful fur friend to a very lucky family.
