Story
Sir Ukulele is a 6-year-old Rat Terrier with a stunning blue coat, long deer-like legs, and undeniable main-character energy. Currently 23 pounds (aiming for 15), he’s on a relatable wellness journey fueled by love… and snacks. The good stuff: • Extremely friendly — strangers are just future friends • Gives full-body, world-class hugs • Great with other dogs; would love a dog sibling • Cats and respectful kids are fine • Leash walks are great • Potty training in progress • Car rides fine (unless it’s to the vet) The honest stuff: • Doesn’t love being alone • Nail trims = absolutely not Sir Ukulele would thrive with someone who’s home often, has a calm, confident leadership style, and a sense of humor. He’s sensitive, affectionate, and deeply devoted — the kind of dog who will follow you everywhere, hug you like he means it, and make you laugh daily. If you want a loyal, hilarious, big-hearted companion, Sir Ukulele is ready for his next chapter.
