Story
Meet Little Bit!Little Bit may be 15 years old, but he's a spry and loving little guy who has so much love to give. After his beloved owner had to enter hospice care, Little Bit found himself looking for a new home. Despite being deaf and mostly blind, this resilient pup doesn't let anything slow him down. He's learned to navigate his surroundings like a pro, even mastering the doggie door with ease.Little Bit loves to be close, following his foster around the house-especially to the kitchen, where he knows good things happen! At night,he enjoys to settle down together on the couch, where he loves to curl up beside his person. He even spends his nights comfortably snoozing there.This sweet senior has a special routine when it comes to his medication: he takes it like a champ with a spoonful of ice cream, which he thoroughly enjoys. Little Bit is the perfect companion for someone who appreciates the quiet comfort of a devoted, loving dog.To set up a meet and greet or inquire about a dog, please first fill out an application at https://savinghoperescue.org/adopt It doesn't obligate you, but it is the first step.

Story
What's an energetic terrier to do when her humans can no longer work from home, and is suddenly left alone during the day? She dreams of a new home where she can get the attention, exercise, and stimulation that an active young 3-year-old craves! While Luna spends long days alone tolerantly resting in her crate, she fantasizes about the freedom to run, play fetch, chase critters, go on adventures, and impress people with all the tricks she knows (like rolling over, spinning, giving kisses, and balancing treats on her nose then tossing them into the air to catch!).  Luna yearns for snuggles, belly rubs, and lots of human interaction. Surely those are reasonable desires! She's reliably house-trained and has been working on being a calmer leash-walker. Though she's a lover, Luna is uptight about new people coming to the house and reacts with barking and jumping. After a few treats and a little time, she will accept the new friends and soon will be bringing them her toys for a game of fetch. Her alertness to strangers means she takes her guarding responsibilities seriously and she will notify you of suspicious noises or people outside. She would do best in a stand-alone home without shared walls, and in a quieter neighborhood. Luna loves most other dogs but she is a big girl for a rattie mix, weighing 35 lbs., so smaller, timid, or grumpy dogs could be annoyed by her persistent, playful energy. Her excitable nature and inclination to resource-guard high value treats also makes her unsuitable for young children. But beautiful Luna will be the perfect companion for active and engaged household whose members are home often. She's a super smart, highly affectionate, fun-loving girl! See more photos of Luna at www.imageevent.com/Newrattitude/luna .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. October 1, 2024, 9:03 pm

Story
My husband and I are moving overseas, and we need to rehome our sweet 12-year-old rat terrier, Pearl. Pearl has been with us for 3 years. She was a rescue. She's healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, and perfect for someone who wants a calm, affectionate pet. She still has a lot of spring in her step! She moves like a much younger dog. Pearl just needs a daily walk and lots of cuddles. She loves belly rubs and will roll onto her back to try to encourage rubs. She's a little clown. Pearl loves to roam around our fenced yard, but prefers being inside. She's a little too big to fit under the airline seat and we won't put her through the danger and trauma of being shipped in cargo. I've heard too many horror stories about this. She is a wonderful companion for a retiree or someone who works from home. She wants to be close to a human, so she shouldn't be left home alone all day. We love her very much. We can't risk taking her with us.
