Story

Meet Lake! Lake is a 5 year old, 12 pound, Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix. Lake came to TNT from a hoarding situation, so he is still decompressing and getting accustomed to life in a home as a family dog! He does well with other dogs, but he's still nervous about new people. His foster family is helping him along the way, including starting to work on training. Slow and steady wins the race! He is looking for a forever home with a family that will be patient as he learns how to feel comfortable with them. He would love to have a confident resident dog who can show him the ropes! He's already started to show us that he wants love - he approaches his foster family for pets and paws gently for more. We are sure that with more guidance and love, he will understand that his life has really just begun! Let us know if your home could be a good fit for Lake! Lake's adoption fee is $400

Wakanda

Rat Terrier Chihuahua

Male, 2 yrs 10 mos

Mundelein, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This little pup came from a local hoarding situation. Due to this they do require a fenced yard as well as another dog in the home. Wakanda is one of the pups rescued from the Wauconda hoarding case and is just beginning to discover how good life can be. Wakanda tends to warm up more quickly to women and is still learning to trust men. He’s working with a trainer to help build confidence and ease his protective streak. While he’s still figuring things out, his sweet side is shining through more each day. He loves spending time outside, so a securely fenced yard is a must for this curious explorer. He’d do best in a quiet home with older kids who understand that trust takes time. With patience, love, and continued training, Wakanda is sure to blossom into a loyal and loving companion. Stop by our weekly adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 pm at 372 Townline Road in Mundelein, IL 60060 to meet our adoptable animals in person. Follow us on Facebook for additional updates and sneak peeks of new dogs! https://www.facebook.com/reachrescue ##2460452##

Brandy (IL)

Rat Terrier

Female, Adult

Plainfield, IL

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Not good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

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

My fashion is the scruffy look, this way I can roll around and have fun and when I get up, I still look the same. Ha ha! I’m also kind of a whiz at playing fetch, you know it’s a great way to stay in shape while having fun. Sometimes I’ll even stick my tongue out, so you know what this means….drop the treat! I’d love to be your “catch” so let’s meet soon!
