Story
Hi there, my name is Nanette Marie, but you can call me Marie! I’m a 9 yr old, 18 lb. spayed Rat Terrier, but don’t let my age fool you, I’m full of life and love to play fetch with my toys. My foster mom says I’m a very well behaved little girl and know sit, stay, no, toy, and a few others. While I would love to sleep in bed with you, and will cover myself up if you provide me with a little light blanket, I can be persuaded to sleep in a crate. In fact, if you leave the crate door open, I will often go inside during the day to nap on my bed. Foster mom introduced me to some full grown (inside) cats and dogs and I did quite well. I didn’t bark or chase them, but it would take a few days or so to get fully acquainted with them. Being a Rat Terrier, I’m not sure how I would be with little pets such as gerbils etc., and I certainly would go after a wild rabbit out in the yard. Heck, I even tried to go after a wild turkey that strutted through mom’s front yard - that was fun! I like to sit in my foster mom’s lap and stare into her eyes, but I don’t try to lick her face, even when she gives me head kisses. I’ve never had an accident in the house nor have I torn anything up, even when she leaves me to go to town to shop once a week for 3 to 5 hours; she just makes sure to let me go potty before she leaves. I do have a very special need to keep me healthy and safe. I'm a type 1 diabetic and must have insulin twice a day. I require glucose testing (like a human diabetic), measured food and then an insulin shot every 12 hours. And please, no table scraps! While I don’t require a prescription or expensive food, I do have to have one that is low in fat and weighed out so that I get the exact amount at each meal. Foster mom has been working with me for several months to help teach me how to behave when she tests me, feeds me and then gives me my shot. I do quite well, even if I say so myself! She even gives me a green bean as a treat for being such a good girl. Although, it can take a little bit for someone to learn how to treat and learn my diabetes routine, once you get the hang of it, it only takes about 5 minutes twice a day to accomplish. Otherwise, I’m pretty much like any other furbaby. My foster mom can tell you all about it and even direct you to a great group of diabetic moms and dads online that can help you keep me safe and healthy. She tells me that most dogs can live a normal lifespan if properly treated. She can tell you all about it. If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our application here: http://www.rchsks.org/our-animals/adopt-a-pet/adopting-a-dog. By filling out the application you are not committing yourself to adopting; it's a screening process that must be completed before you meet the dog. Please do this BEFORE calling. Our voicemail is only checked periodically and you can reach us much faster via dog-coordinators@rchsks.org. Thank you!

Story
Pixie and Brickell have been together since they were very young. Pixie was born in March of 2012. Brickell was born in August of 2014. Their owners both passed away within a short period of time recently. The surviving family took them but then surrendered them at a shelter when it wasn't working out, then left the state. They are good dogs that have been coming to our daycare their whole lives. We had promised them we would take care of them if anything ever happened, and here we are. Pixie (rat terrier, ~30lbs) is dog friendly. Doesn't like to be picked up. Brickell (brindle, 55lbs) is dog selective, likes more passive dogs smaller than her. Both good with kids.
