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

Description

Dog Breed: Rat Terrier (short coat). Sweetie is a cute 10-year-old female rat terrier that weighs 14 lbs. She was named for her personality; she is extra sweet to everyone she meets --including people of all ages, dogs, and cats. She likes to stay calm and relaxed around the house, but she does love long walks. She does great on a leash; she even likes to walk at a fast pace to light jog! Sweetie is not much of a lap dog and prefers to rest on her dog bed. She is house-trained and will go to the door to request to go outside, though she has had accidents. Sweetie has also been diagnosed with liver disease and takes daily supplements. Her monthly medicine costs are about $60.00, and she has no problems taking her medication. Sweetie is very food-driven and will eat anything, so she may take well to training. Sweetie was rescued from a terrible situation and despite her earlier struggles, she is still a loving and wonderful girl. She would make a great companion for someone willing to return her love and take care of her. Additional photos available at imageevent/newrattitude/sweetie .
