My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Yes, I can be quite a character. So it is fitting that I was named after one of the greatest characters in film history! You know, Templeton…Charlotte’s Web…the silly little rat! True, my stardom hasn’t reached those monumental heights, but I dream of seeing my name in lights as the leading man of your heart! I’m not nearly as selfish as that well-known rodent; I’m more than happy to share my home and heart with other dogs or cats, just no small children for me. Like most famous characters I simply love having my own dressing room, so the crate training I have received here has been wonderful. It also helps me feel safe and secure when things get overwhelming, which happens pretty easily. I am a sensitive little guy who demands to be treated gently and with respect, and like my famous namesake I will work best if a tasty reward is given. There are lots of things I’d love to learn, and continued training will really help boost my confidence and make me feel like a star. Will you accept the role of my supporting family? 9 months old-9lbs. My adoption fee is $220 and includes neuter, microchip & registration, 1 month pet health insurance, reduced-cost training class, free vet exam, leash/collar, toy & treat packet, food sample.
