Rat Terrier puppies and dogs in Lafayette, California

Rockefeller is a smart, social little guy with a lot of personality packed into a small body. He loves toys, treats, and attention from his people. Very bright and highly motivated, he enjoys training and will thrive in an active home that can give him plenty of mental enrichment and exercise. Despite his size, he’s not looking to be a lap dog—he’s looking for something to do!

If you’re looking for a mutt that is straight to the point and never strays from her objective, Dilly Dally may not be right for you – she thinks the journey is more important than the destination and often takes an (admittedly fun) detour! Miss Dilly Dally is the eldest of three siblings, and the other two have followed her to Muttville – you’re not seeing double (or triple!), there are, in fact, three beautiful brown and white darlings traipsing through HQ. This sweet senior has been an excellent big sister, but it’s tuckered her out – she now takes life at a more sedate pace. She would love to find a forever home where she can flourish in her golden years – do you have space to Dilly Dally? Here's some notes from her foster: Dilly Dally is very food oriented. She loves meal time and any snacks you may have to offer her! She absolutely loves to cuddling and be close to you, either by your side or in your lap.

Meet Muppet, a senior sweetheart with a name as cute as her soul! With her tiny, permanent head tilt, she looks like she’s always listening for compliments (and she deserves all of them). Muppet is a professional cuddler, a lover of dogs big and small, and a firm believer that every day is the best day ever. She greets life with joy, kindness, and a gentle wag, spreading happiness wherever she goes. Whether she’s snuggled up beside you or making new furry friends, Muppet’s heart is always wide open. Calm, loving, and endlessly charming, this perfect little angel is ready to spend her golden years giving unconditional love to her forever family! Here's some notes from her foster: For her potty routine she usually needs to go every 2–3 hours when she wakes up. I follow a simple rule: if she’s awake, we head downstairs for a quick walk. She snoozes most of the day but in the afternoon/evening she perks up and loves hanging out with us, following us around. She adores humans — gently greets everyone, happily accepts pets, and is just so sweet. Handling her is super easy. She does prefer her space, but if she’s extra shivery I’ll pop her in a sling and keep her close. Overall, she is truly a beautiful soul. She’s already warmed my heart, and anyone who ends up with her will be incredibly lucky

Buddy lost his Mom and Dad last year and we were hoping we would be able to keep him. He is 9 yrs old and weighs 9 lbs. He is the sweetest , most loving dog you will ever find. My sister and I have realized, Buddy needs a home with a yard and maybe children that can keep up with his energy level. He is very obedient and loves everyone. He sings with sirens and loves attention, which is something he can never get enough of. He is just a wonderful dog.

Hopper gets along with all dogs of all sizes and ages, but likes to chase chickens. Hopper also loves to be held and loved on.

Here is a list of things that should help us answer you in a more timely manner. 1. When you apply please always use the same email address. If we need to look something up later and you used a different email we are often not able to find it. 2. Adopt a Pet and Petfinders ask you to send us an enquiry. This always delays our response. (Why) a. Our biographies are always very detailed. Therefore sending an enquiry asking us to repeat what it says in the biography causes a lot more work and delays our response. b. We are a small non-profit and do not always have the help to answer as many enquiries as we get. c. Again our Biographies are very detailed and if you just click the link near the bottom of their bio you can fill out an application which we will respond to. 3. For the AFC website (scroll down to the bio at the bottom it says (apply to adopt today- click that link) www.animalfriendsconnect.org 4. For Petfinders ( scroll down to the biography then click the adoption link) http://animalfriendsconnect.org/adoption-application-dogs/ 5.
