Story
Looking for a companion for walking, hiking, camping, RVing, hunting, farming, or anything outdoors? This is your dog! Bea is a beautiful 3- to 5-year-old with many of the characteristics typical of a Decker rat terrier, not least of which is her size--30 lbs. Before coming to New Rescue, Bea showed up at a Missouri country home, where she quickly befriended the resident Lab puppy and demonstrated what a nature girl she is. She enjoyed roaming the five wooded acres and tracking and chasing critters!   Now in her foster home, Bea has had a chance to show off more of her awesome qualities. She is sweet, gentle, polite, quiet, and smart. She already understands some commands and will easily learn more! She walks nicely on a leash and looks forward to daily walks. She's also house-trained and lets you know when she needs to go out to potty. For those of you who work from home, Bea is the perfect coworker, quietly napping on her dog bed in the office during the workday. She's working on how to meet and greet other dogs with trips to the local dog park.    Bea is looking for a family that loves the outdoors as much as she does. A wide-open country space to explore or a large fenced property would be great. Otherwise regular, substantial (she can go for hours) leashed walks are a must. A home where Bea can relax and be her happy, playful self would bring out the best in this nature gal. See more Bea in her online album at https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/bea . Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info. April 22, 2024, 10:41 am

Story
I have had a pretty rough past couple of months as I was dumped and then taken into animal control. Then LCHS pulled me from animal control and showed me it's okay to trust again. I am still a little shy with new people but am working on how to trust again. I have so much love to give despite everything I have been through and hope someone can love me for who I am stub tail and all!

FAST FACTS:*6 Years Old - 14 Pounds*Snuggly and Affectionate*Loves Blankets, Cuddles, and Enjoys Car Rides*Low/Medium Energy*People Friendly*Only Pet*Mostly Potty Trained*Crate TrainedBIO:Hi there! My name is Sunlee, and I want to bring my happy, affectionate sunshine personality to your life! I am a snuggly little lap dog who is happiest when I can curl up with you under a warm blanket for movie nights and tv show binge marathons. My favorite activities include going for car rides and being carried around like a baby so I can sneak in an extra hug or two. I am very friendly with people, but because I like all your attention focused on cuddling with me I think I would do best as your only pet. I have good manners in the house and am potty and crate trained; I know to do my business outside, but if I have to hold it for very long hours I might have to use a potty pad. I have pretty good leash manners, too, though I prefer short walks and will lead you back towards home when I decide exercise time is done haha! If you love that lounging lifestyle and are looking for a best furry friend to relax by your side, I am the girl for you! I hope you fill out an adoption application, because I would like to get comfortable on your couch and catch up on my stories soon!If you'd like to adopt this dog, please get started by filling out a complete application (incomplete submissions cannot be sent.) Please note that while we take time to learn as much as we can about each dog in our care as possible, our bios are written from current observations. Though we do our best to share as much information as possible about each dog we care for, we are unable to make any guarantees on the future health or temperament of your adopted dog. Most dogs in our care come with unknown pre-rescue history, and information pertaining to breed and age are often educated guesses.
