Description
Dog Breed: Chihuahua / Rat Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Hello! My name is Angel. My previous owners could not care for me properly, so I came to the Olive Branch. I had a severe case of flea dermatitis and a skin infection on top of that! Thankfully we took care of all of that. My skin is better, my fur has grown back, and best of all- no more ithcy fleas! I have been spayed, vaccinated, combo tested (all negative), and my preventives are all currnet. I have been living in the offices at OBARR with several different dogs and a couple cats. I seem to get along great with everyone. I would love to have a doggy companion to romp and play with. Kids would be great, too. Cats are okay, I just don't pay any attention to them. I would be a perfect all around family pet. If I sound like your kind of girl, please fill out the adoption application on this website.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Rat-Cha, a charming crossbreed between the Chihuahua and Rat Terrier, offers a spirited companion with a unique blend of its parent breeds' best traits. Originating from the desire to combine the Chihuahua's affectionate nature with the Rat Terrier's intelligence and robustness, this hybrid is gaining popularity. Physically, Rat-Chas are typically small to medium-sized, weighing between 6 and 15 pounds, with a short, easy-to-care-for coat that can vary widely in color. They often possess expressive eyes and a sturdy build, reflecting their terrier lineage. Temperamentally, they are known for being alert, playful, and loyal, often forming strong bonds with their families. While they can be vocal, early socialization and training can mitigate this. Their adaptable size makes them well-suited for both apartment living and homes with yards, and they can be wonderful additions to active families, though supervision is wise with very young children due to their smaller stature. Health-wise, like many small breeds, they can be prone to dental issues and patellar luxation, so regular vet check-ups are important.
