He’s been great with the kids. Kevin hasn't reacted to the cat at all. He is doing well on housetraining but his foster mom keeps an eye on him.

Daisy is a 1 year old Rat terrier that we rescued. She came to us emaciated but she has gone from 11.5 lbs to 15 lbs! Her foster family has been taking such good care of her. Daisy is very outgoing, friendly, and playful. She likes to curl up with you or play fetch. She gets along with other dogs and cats. Daisy is doing good with house training and does well in the crate. She has a strong chase reflex and will go after squirrels. She does fine on the leash and in the car. Her foster family thinks she would probably be fine with kids. Daisy has been vet checked, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and is on heartworm/flea prevention.

Story
We adopted Lacy from a shelter in July 2025 - they thought she was about a year and full grown, some sort of beagle mix. She was much smaller and a little shy, and shadowed our senior dog wherever she went. When she went to get spayed and shots, the vet said she was not a year and was going to get much larger (and oh boy, they were right). We ended up getting a dna test done on her and she is half Treeing Walker Coonhound and half Great Pyrenees.As Lacy has grown, she has become an out-going, loving, high-energy giant. She adores people and attention, loves chewies and toys, goes crazy for the dog park to play with other dogs.Lacy is looking for an indoor home where she can get lots of love, lots of chewies, and have a human to cuddle with. She will also need lots of walks, running, sniffing, and playing to give all that energy a positive outlet
