Indianapolis, IN

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Casey is a 6-year-old Rat Terrier with a big personality. Due to my own health issues, Im no longer able to give her the level of care and activity she deserves, so searching for an experienced and responsible adopter who can offer her a safe, stable, and loving home. Casey is energetic, playful, and loves being around people. She’s the kind of dog who lights up when she gets attention. She can be hyper at times, especially when excited, but she settles down nicely once she’s burned off some energy. She does best as an only dog or with a male dog. Casey is what I would describe as a flight risk. She’s clever, agile, and has been known to take herself on adventures if she finds an opening. Because of this, a secure, fenced-in backyard is strongly recommended, and her adopter should be comfortable managing a dog who likes to explore. Fully house trained & crate trained Spayed and microchipped

Story
Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. Each dog in our rescue is in a loving foster home, where they can grow, play, and recover from their time spent on the streets or in a shelter. If you'd like to meet an adoptable dog, please fill out an application on our website, www.edcr.org. Because we are a foster home based rescue a completed adoption application is required to meet our adoptable dogs. April 8, 2025, 2:21 pm
