YOGI (GA) - RAT TERRIER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Rat Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Reintroducing Yogi: The smart, spunky adventurer! Age: 6 Months | Weight: 25 lbs. of clever curiosity Status: Fully vaccinated and vigilant! Puppies grow and change so fast, we thought it was time to share some updated information on sweet Yogi, a loyal watchman with a heart of gold. If you're looking for a dog who actually takes his "home security" duties seriously, you have to meet Yogi! At 25 lbs., Yogi is a handsome, sturdy boy who might be "smarter than the average bear," but he’s also a lot more observant. Yogi has a big, impressive bark that sounds much tougher than he actually is! He’s not aggressive—he just wants to make sure everything in his world is safe before he lets his guard down. Why Yogi is a special find: The ultimate guard dog (in training): Yogi is naturally alert and will definitely let you know if a stranger—or the mailman—is approaching. If you want a dog who makes you feel safe and looked after, Yogi is your man. Slow and steady wins the race: Yogi is "selectively social." When meeting other dogs, he tends to bark a lot at first. He just needs a little extra time and a patient, slow introduction. Once he realizes a new dog is a friend, he warms up and shows his playful side! A dedicated shadow: Once you are in Yogi’s "inner circle," you are there for life. He is incredibly devoted to his humans and will be your most loyal companion, stuck to your side like glue. House-training progress: Yogi is well on his way to being fully reliable as long as he’s kept on a consistent schedule. Yogi would love to have a big yard to run around and explore, but he can live without one if he gets lots of outdoor time for "business", exercise, and play. Now that he's fully vaccinated, Yogi is ready for a home and family that understands he needs time to assess his surroundings before jumping in. He is looking for a confident owner who can lead the way and show him that the world isn’t so scary. In return, he’ll give you a lifetime of protection, smarts, and deep devotion.
