Description
Dog Breed: Rat Terrier (medium coat). This shy but incredibly sweet little gentleman is ready to find a quiet, loving home to call his own. Lovecraft might take a little time to warm up, but once he feels safe, heâll happily curl up in your lap and soak up all the gentle affection you can give. Because of his shy nature, he may do best in a calmer home with older kids who understand how to move slowly and kindly around him.

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.
