Description
Dog Breed: Rat Terrier (short coat). Hello Friends, My name is Paisley, 17 dogs and I came to the Olivebranch Animal Rescue from a bad situation. The kind and caring staff here are helping us become the best that we can be. I have been spayed, 4dx Combo tested (all negative), fully vaccinated and current on preventatives. I am a happy, playful, girl that gets along with most dogs. I do love to chase cats, so a cat free home is a must.I l am very active and playful, so older kids would be great! If you would love an active small girl to take on adventures, I'm your gal! If you would like to give me my forever home, fill out an application on our website (olivebranchwv).

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.
