Story
I have had Olaf since he was a puppy! It actually breaks my heart to write this request as he is such an amazing (but quirky) little guy. Olaf is a 12 year old rat terrier with a beautiful Merle coat and big personality! He loves to cuddle, be around his people, and sunbathe! He is friendly with cats but is a bit dog aggressive / territorial. He loves people but gets spooked easily/ does not like to be picked up. He does love to hop up and sit in your lap (just on his own terms). Unfortunately, Olaf bit our toddler this summer and we just welcomed a new baby into our home. We have had to keep him sectioned off from our toddler since July and now with our baby girl, it’s just too much. We want him to have a fun and free few years of his life left. We can’t offer him what he deserves :( I think he would be such a great companion for a home without dogs / kids! He is an easy keep and does well being left home alone!

Story
MEET BUG — BIG PERSONALITY, WORLD-CLASS SNUGGLES! Bug has never met a stranger! This affectionate, confident little guy loves meeting people and brings plenty of enthusiasm to everything he does. He enjoys his favorite stuffed toys, spending time with his dog buddies, and settling in for snuggles. Great with other dogs: Bug has met dogs of different sizes and breeds and has been friendly with them. Making excellent house-training progress: No accidents since his previous foster update! A lovely walking companion: He walks well on a leash, both alone and alongside other dogs. Friendly with children he’s met: Bug doesn’t currently live with children, but he has done well with those he’s met outside the home. Bug is still learning that cats aren’t chase partners. Fast movements can tempt him to give chase, although he’s improving with guidance. A home with cats would need careful introductions, supervision, and continued training. He can also guard bones or other prized chews around dogs, so those special treats should be enjoyed separately. Bug’s ideal home: People who enjoy companionship and cuddles—and will help him keep building good habits. He has an active personality, but his family will need to follow his veterinary team’s activity restrictions while he undergoes treatment. Medical update: Bug is heartworm positive and is currently undergoing treatment. Denkai can discuss his treatment plan, activity restrictions, and ongoing care needs with interested adopters.

Story
Meet our adorable rat terrier puppy Rosa. She is around 5lbs and 5 months old.  Here is a video of Rosa and her sister Osoro:https://youtu.be/Felu2535QNA We don't know much about the background of Rosa or her sister Osoro. We do believe they are related even though they look quite different to each other. They are typical friendly and playful puppies, relatively confident around dogs of all sizes. They are a little vocal, especially around new dogs. They are comfortable being handled and are excited to see their foster parent however, they can be very shy and usually avoid being handled as best they can. The foster usually corrals them and scoops them up to crate them overnight. They sleep quietly through the night in their crate without any accidents. Their foster lets them out in the morning and they run riot in the backyard all day. With a little bit of human attention, they should quickly grow in confidence and seek out human affection. She is vaccinated, spayed and microchipped.  Rosa knows just how miraculous a turn her life has taken when she was picked out by Havok's Wolfpack and she is determined to live her new life to the fullest, hopefully, with you. Her adoption fee is $600. To submit an adoption application for her, head over to our website (please ignore the error code, the form will load correctly):http://www.havokswolfpack.com/adopt/ or you can use this link https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/18644/generic If your application is approved, we will contact you promptly. ##2867246##

Story
Cami is a 12-year-old Rat Terrier weighing 18 pounds. This sweet senior girl is incredibly friendly and loves being around people. She enjoys soaking up attention and spending time with her favorite humans. Cami is dog selective and does best with dogs who respect her space, particularly around food and other resources. She tends to prefer more established, socially confident dogs who are comfortable giving her space and respecting her boundaries. Our Behavior Team will be happy to discuss Cami’s individual dog preferences and help determine what type of canine companion may be the best fit for her. Cami has recently mastered leash walking but is still working on her leash manners. She tends to get excited when out and about and sometimes has a hard time containing her enthusiasm. She no longer requires a fenced-in yard but would benefit from an adopter who has experience with dogs and is comfortable continuing to work with her on leash skills and manners. Cami would do best in a home without young children. She may be a better fit for a home with teenagers or young adults who can understand and respect her boundaries, especially around food and other resources. Cami is looking for a loving home where she can enjoy her golden years surrounded by companionship, attention, and all the affection she deserves. A required in-person meet and greet at our shelter is part of the adoption process to help ensure a good fit for Cami and her potential adopters. If you're looking for a sweet senior who loves people and has her own preferences when it comes to canine companions, Cami may be the perfect companion for you!
