BRODIE (SC) - RAT TERRIER (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Rat Terrier (short coat). Brodie is a good-natured, laid-back 6-year-old rat terrier who loves lounging in the sun, snuggles and belly rubs, and going on walks (doing 2-3 miles with ease)! This low-maintenance guy is reliably house-trained and knows several verbal cues such as "sit", "lie down", "stay", and "come". He loves people -- he is initially cautious but quickly warms up -- and children in particular bring a sparkle to his eyes. He is comfortable with other dogs but unknown with cats. While his previous home life was very quiet and low-energy, he has adapted well to his more robust and active temporary home, and it's clear he has the flexibility to happily reflect his environment. He just wants the opportunity to show you what a well-mannered and devoted companion he can be. It's so very easy to want to spoil Brodie, since he has so many wonderful qualities, which is probably why Brodie weighs 29 lbs. instead of the 22 lbs. recommended by his vet. Thankfully, Brodie delights in the exercise he is getting in his new temporary home, and he has already lost a pound. Visit his photo album at .ImageEvent/newrattitude/brodie where you can see lots of pictures and some cute videos that capture the spirit of this playful and sweet-as-can-be boy.
