Budge

Rat Terrier Chihuahua

Male, Young
Palmdale, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Found him roaming the streets. Took him in and he adapted well. He lets you know when he needs to go out. He doesn’t like wearing a harness or leash, but I gather these things are new to him. The vet said he is around two or three. He’s a big cuddler and likes to lick your hand as a thank you. He needs a home with someone who likes lap dog. I will be losing my housing at the first of the year and think he deserves an actual home not the back seat of a car.

Meet Brownie Sweet Treat Alert!!! Meet Ms. Brownie!! We love this little spry grandma so much. She may have a bit of a collapsing trachea (hello, senior dog lovers), but that doesn't stop her from being the sweetest little treat! She can fly solo or with other dogs. She loves her walks, getting snuggles and affection, and is fine with cats!! Her foster also says she is incredibly smart (must be al the Sudoku). If you're a glutton for a little sugar, apply to adopt Ms. Brownie!! PS - we had her dentail taken care of recently so she is ready to go. Apply here: https://shyclubrescue.com/adoption-application/ and Follow @Shyclubrescue on Instagram for updates on Ms. Brownie.

MILLIE

Rat Terrier

Female, Adult
Los Angeles, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
MILLIE is a lovely adult/senior, 8 pounds, girl Rat Terrier whose senior human dad passed away, leaving Millie and her four little companions, Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy, without their dad. They all get along really well, are house trained, and also know to use pads to do their business indoors, and at night, and when it's raining or very cold out. They are not barkers, only barking to warn that someone is at or near the front door, and then they settle down again. They are great with cats because their housemates have been six (6) cats! If shown a lot of affection and understanding when welcomed into their new homes, we are sure these lovely kiddos will do well in a loving new home even if they don’t stay together. IMPORTANT NOTE: Recently the number of deaths from hungry coyote attacks has greatly increased. Coyotes can climb 10 foot fences with a small to medium sized dog in their jaws. This happens in broad daylight in the middle of the day, and on trails while hiking with your dog on a leash, it is truly unbelievable, and we have frightening first-hand accounts. We are listing these lovely pups to help their current foster/rescue in finding them wonderful new homes. All four girl pups are spayed, Shorty is neutered, and all of them current on vaccines. To learn more about Millie (Cookie, Shorty, Poopsy, and Missy), please contact us at: theanimalsleftbehind@socal.rr.com (also our PayPal email for donations and sponsorships).
