My story

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

Tyler is a little guy weighing in at 17 lbs currently. He could stand to put a few pounds on and top out at 21 lbs or so. We believe he is a Rat Terrier mix.

Tyler is a spunky little guy who loves his people. He will follow you wherever you go, and will want to be right on your lap the moment you sit down! He gets along well with other dogs with a slow introduction. Tyler is vocal when he sees new dogs, but with the right introduction he will settle down and play with big and little dogs! He also does require a fenced yard or someone who is willing to take him out on a leash, but he is house trained. If he is in another home with dogs, he will need to sleep in a crate, but otherwise he is okay sleeping in a bed out and about. He can show people possession so no sleeping in the bed with him until he’s properly trained. He is so ready to love everyone!

He has not yet been tested around children so at this time we cannot adopt him out to a home with children.

Tyler is being fostered in a private home. Appointments to visit him will be set up for approved adopters only. His adoption fee is $300 which includes all age appropriate vaccines. He is neutered and microchipped. He is also up-to-date on all vaccinations and preventatives as well as Heartworm negative.
