Story
ADOPT CORA! Cora, a 2 year old, 14 pound spayed female Rat Terrier mix, is a happy active girl who loves everyone she meets, even kids, over age 8. She gets along great with the other small dogs in her foster home. She, however, doesn’t like larger dogs. If you have an equally active young dog Cora would like a playmate. Since she can be a bit of a pest when she wants to play, she is not a good match for a home with a non-playful or senior dog. Due to her prey drive NO CATS, BUNNIES etc. Cora loves to snuggle. When it’s bedtime Cora sleeps snuggled in bed under the blankets with her foster mom. Cora will also follow you around the house. Wherever you are is where she will be. You will never shower alone again. Small dog secure fenced yard required. Adopter must be located within 40 minutes of Steger, Illinois. She is house trained with reminders and uses potty pads. Cora’s adoption fee $495. Cora is up to date on shots, spayed, microchipped, fecal checked, heartworm negative and current on heartworm and flea prevention. If you believe this wonderful little girl is for you, go to our website heathersfosterdogs.org. Then click on Adoption Application in the menu at the top of the page to find our electronic application which serves as the basis of a conversation. Submit it & you will be contacted. We will make arrangements to meet with prospective adopters for Cora only after a submitted application has been reviewed & a phone conversation taken place. ***Please note that we are a foster based group located in the southern suburbs of Chicago. Again, Cora’s adopter must be located within 40 minutes of Steger, Illinois.**

Story
Brandy is a 1-year-old rat terrier mix who is house-trained, great with other dogs, and friendly with people. She’s energetic and playful, but may not be ideal for homes with small children due to her tendency to nip during play. Brandy is very vocal, especially when she's excited about dinner or playtime -- she sounds like a little "demon" but in the best way! At night, she sleeps in our bed, though she’ll happily move to a dog bed if she’s had enough. In the mornings, she’ll greet you with kisses or a wagging tail to help wake you up, making sure your day is off to a great start. Brandy loves walks, though she can be a bit unruly for the first few minutes. Once she settles, she walks well but tends to be reactive to other dogs, so a harness is recommended to prevent injury to her neck. Brandy is healthy, though she does have bilateral luxating patella, a condition she was likely born with. The vet suggests keeping her under 16 lbs. to manage it. Her ideal home would be active, possibly with another dog her size who enjoys playing. Brandy is smart and would benefit from formal training.

NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info.November 10, 2025, 3:59 am

Story
Olivia is full of spunky charm and bright-eyed enthusiasm, is a delightful ball of energy and affection. At almost 1 year old, she's in the prime of her youthful exuberance, still retaining much of her puppy playfulness while beginning to settle into a more refined routine. Rat Terriers are smart cookies! Olivia picks up new tricks and will learn house rules quickly, thriving on positive reinforcement and mental stimulation. Behind all that energy is a heart of gold. She adores snuggles, especially after a good play session, and will form a strong, loyal bond with her family. To schedule a meeting, please submit an adoption application at therescuevets.com or email adoptions@therescuevets.com
