Story

Welcome Dash to CCPAL Rescue. Dash is a Rat Terrier from the local breeder in Texas. He is a traditional Black and Tan Rat Terrier. He was born on March 12, 2026. He will be getting his vaccinations, neutered, dewormed and ready for his forever home. He will be a small dog full grown. 15 to 18 pounds or less. Dash was really good in his photo shoot and sat like a big dog getting photos. Dash is one of the smaller boys. He is playful and very sweet. The breeder for this litter is closing shop due to an illness. We have agreed to help get her population down starting with the puppies. This breed is smart, loyal and the puppies are affectionate. Someone who knows this breed would be best. They are energetic so a moderately active family or more active would be best for the Rat Terrier. Dash would be fine with children. We like them to be 8 or older. Rat Terriers are great family pets and watchdogs for their family. Their training is easier due to their intelligence and a light touch is needed. They are a wonderfully sensitive breed and from experience want to do what you are asking. Dash is currently in Texas and can be adopted locally or we can work with one of the wonderful transporters to get him to Washington, Portland, Minnesota, Vermont or all along the East Coast. We have an entire litter of Rat Terriers. They are from a breeder. We don’t have papers but they are considered pure bred pups. His adoption fee is $600 and transport is $200. Rhode Island and Massachusetts are not states we adopt to because of the regulations imposed by these states. Contact Marlene at 210-867-1769 or email to ccpalinquiries@gmail.com if you have questions. Online applications at www.ccpalrescue.org See his cute video

Story

All interested people should submit an adoption application as their first step. Meet Sasha & Precious: A Bonded Pair Looking for Their Forever Home Sasha and Precious are an adorable pair of bonded Jack Russell Terrier sisters who have been together their entire lives. Recently surrendered through no fault of their own, these sweet girls are adjusting remarkably well to life after leaving the only home they've ever known. Their previous owner allowed them to roam freely in a rural southern neighborhood, which unfortunately was not permitted, leading to their surrender. Despite this big life change, Sasha and Precious remain happy, loving, and devoted to one another. They share a special bond that we hope to preserve by finding a family willing to welcome both girls into their home. Precious is the smaller sister, weighing just 13 pounds, and is easy to spot thanks to the extra white on her head. Don't let her size fool you—she's definitely the boss of the duo! This confident little girl loves carrying toys around in her mouth and is always ready for adventure. She absolutely thrives in the yard, where her speed and agility are on full display. Precious enjoys the company of other dogs but likes to be the one calling the shots. Sasha, the bigger sister at 17 pounds, is every bit as fun-loving. Her favorite hobby? Taking apart toys with great enthusiasm! Like her sister, she loves running and playing outside and would be thrilled to have a yard where she can stretch her legs. Both girls adore people and are wonderful with children. They seem to get along well with other dogs and are currently fostered with one. When playtime is over, Sasha and Precious are happy to curl up with their humans for cuddles—or snuggle together when their people aren't nearby. These loving sisters have so much joy, affection, and companionship to offer. They have spent their entire lives side by side, and we would love nothing more than to find a forever home where they can continue their journey together. If you're looking for double the love, double the fun, and double the cuddles, Sasha and Precious may be the perfect pair for you! All pets adopted from GDHS are spayed or neutered, have vaccinations brought up to date, are on heartworm preventative (dogs), FIV/FELV tested (cats) and microchipped. The Greater Derry Humane Society does not have a physical shelter, and all visits are by appointment only. July 10, 2026, 3:15 pm
