Meet Layla Layla is a mixed breed dog, maybe with some rat terrier, about two years old and about 17 pounds, found pregnant in a kill shelter in Texas and transferred to Maryland. She has the best personality in the world, so loving and sweet, and such a good girl. Her babies are almost ready for adoption and Layla is now too.

The adoption fee is $425, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including age appropriate vaccinations, worming, flea/tick preventative and spay/neuter. All of our dogs will be microchipped. APPLY AT ALMOSTHOMEDOGS.ORG (click on the word "Adopt" at top of page to find the dropdown menu with application) Because our dogs are in foster homes, applications are required prior to setting up any appointments.

Story
Junior is a miracle dog who was hit by a car but has made a nearly full recovery. He is a 7 ½ year old, 19 lb. rat terrier mix who was originally picked up as a stray in NC. The shelter noticed he was guarding his left rear leg and put him on pain medication until he arrived to his foster home in MD. As a result of his accident, he suffered  fractures and has healed with a 'crooked' pelvis. To manage his pain, Junior is still on a low dose medication (approx. $10-30/month) that helps with normal day to day activities. Junior's vet notes him as 'very sweet', and if he sees a head or chin scratch coming he will politely take it and move in for more. He might bark outside when he sees people ahead but is easily corrected and is learning that many neighbors give head and chin scratches too! Junior doesn't seem too interested in toys, but he can definitely be playful!  He is completely housetrained.Although he did well with his canine foster siblings, he can be a bit unpredictable when interacting with them or new dogs on his walks. He may be a bit too dominant or bossy for other dogs, so he would love to be the only loving pup in your home. He would probably not do well around small children either.Junior's best home is one where he is the only pup, there are no wood stairs, and his humans are home most of the time. He is crate-trained but would prefer not to be crated for long periods of time. Due to his pelvis condition, we are looking for a local adopter who is able to meet Junior. No accident could stop this handsome boy's spirit, and he is eager to find the place he belongs. You can see more photos of sweet Junior at https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/junior 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. October 22, 2024, 4:46 pm
