My personality

My story

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

Rascal is an incredibly sweet, snuggly, and spunky little guy - truly a wonderful dog, who we highly suspect is a small Austalian Cattle Dog mix, possibly with Jack Russell Terrier (based on 2 other dogs found with him that we suspect are brothers to his twin, Romeo).
He has been good with young children (3-6), done well with the other dogs he's met, and enjoys talking to and trying to play with 4 outdoor rescue kitties he can interact with through a fence line, so we think he will do quite well with a resident cat.

He is one of 4 boys abandoned together in a very rural neighbor's backyard and never claimed (it seems they were from a backyard breeding project, as other similar dogs were also found by others in the general area and owners never found). The finder was unable to keep them, as he had his own dogs and all 4 *can* climb chain link/welded wire. He and his assumed to be brothers (Rusty, Russell, and Romeo, the TerrieRs) then had a foster offer in Washington, where they were neutered and finished their vetting.

Rascal is incredibly sweet and mildly shy/sensitive (he gives you looks like, "Am I doing this right? Am I a good boy?"), and loves to snuggle. He jumps with joy when you walk up to him, and just has the perfect mix of sweetness and playfulness - he could do well in a variety of home settings. He is crate trained, and has done well in a home with close supervision and interaction, but has not been left to free-roam the house unsupervised (between being 4 intact male dogs, and then crate rest after neuter), but we think he'd be very well-behaved. He has had no crate accidents, and let's people know when he would like to go out/go potty.
Because he can climb chain link and welded wire, his main consideration is an adoptive home where he cannot climb out if momentarily bored or lonely, so preferred homes will have wood or vinyl fencing - he would also do well in an apartment setting or similar, where his time outside is supervised or leashed.

Rascal will be transported to CA for adoption around the middle of October 💓
