Story
PLEASE READ ENTIRE POST AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - WINSTON BREED - Rat Terrier SIZE - About 16 pounds AGE - 1-2 years GENDER - Male MEDICAL CONCERNS - None known BEHAVIOR CONCERNS - None known SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS - Winston is truly one of the most wonderful little dogs to come into our rescue. Clean, quiet, mild mannered, happy, playful, cuddly... the list could go on and on. This little fellow came to us from an eastern NC shelter where he had been found as a stray. Why no one ever came to claim him is a complete mystery. A dog this nice has to have been someone's well loved pet. Fully grown at just over 15 pounds, Winston is a perfect size for most homes! He is in good health, neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. We would love to find Winston a home with an active family. He appears to do very well with other dogs, but we would not want to place him in a home with large pets or small children to prevent accidental injury. A home with a fenced, secure yard is a must. Winston can't wait to find his new family, but truly, they will be the lucky ones! Our adoption process starts with your email to carerescue@aol.com or Adopt a Pet inquiry. After we receive it, we will email you our prescreening questionnaire. Your answers will help us determine that your home and lifestyle matches the needs of Winston and our adoption criteria. Once determined, we will set up a private meeting with you and your family to meet Winston at a park near our private kennel just east of Richmond. After meeting him and determining that he matches your preferences for a pet, we will accept your application. A home visit by one of our trained volunteers is required for all adoptions, and we will speak with your vet to ensure that you are a responsible pet owner.
