Description
Dog Breed: Rat Terrier. Meet Cordelia, a young mama dog who deserves a medal for “Best Mom Ever.” She lovingly raised her three puppies until they were happy, healthy, and ready for homes of their own—and now they’ve all been adopted! With her little family grown and gone, it’s finally Cordelia’s turn to shine. She came from a hoarding situation, so she can be a little shy at first, but once she decides you’re trustworthy, she’ll claim your lap as her official throne. Sweet and loyal, Cordelia is ready to trade in her mama duties for a forever home where she can be the one getting spoiled.

Overview:
The Rat Terrier is a lively and intelligent American breed, originally developed in the early 20th century from a mix of Fox Terriers, Old English White Terriers, and other small terriers, primarily for farm work and pest control. These compact yet sturdy dogs typically weigh between 10-25 pounds and stand 10-18 inches tall, boasting a short, smooth coat that comes in a variety of patterns, often with large patches of color over white. Known for their energetic and inquisitive nature, Rat Terriers are remarkably adaptable and affectionate, making them excellent companions for active individuals or families. While their boundless energy necessitates regular exercise and mental stimulation, they can thrive in apartments provided their needs are met. Generally a healthy breed, they have a lifespan of 12-18 years, though some may be prone to patellar luxation or Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. Their friendly disposition and eagerness to please make them highly trainable and a joy to live with.
