My story

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

location: Myrtle Beach, SC




Nigel Ratbone is a pint sized 2 year old Rat Terrier mix, weighing in at only 7 pounds. He is shy at first, but will warm up once he gets comfortable with you. Nigel a little nervous in new situations. He tends to prefer women over men, but he will eventually warm up to men that are patient with him. Nigel gets along great with other dogs and is scared of cats. He is crate trained but doesn't really need to be crated when left alone, since he’s not destructive and can be trusted. Nigel is also house trained and good on a leash. He is very smart and listens very well, and all that he wants to do is please you, so teaching him new things has been very easy. Nigel was surrendered to a high kill shelter in NC by an owner that couldn't be bothered with taking care of him. It doesn't seem like little Nigel was treated with much kindness in his first home, but with some love and patience he has been an absolute pleasure to foster! He was adopted by a wonderful couple earlier this year, but due to the tragic loss of one of his parents he was not able to stay with his family. Little Nigel loves everyone, but because of his size and shyness, a home with only older children (over 10) would be best for this tiny little man. Additional photos of Nigel may be seen here, and he has a video posted here. So, if you're looking for a handsome, sweet, and super cute little companion, then Nigel is the man for you!
