Story
Phoebe is a definite Rat Terrier mix around 3-4 years of age. She was found running at large with little Rachel in Taney Co. Missouri. She is a littel shy at first, but a super sweet girl. She does climb out of the pup pen that is 4ft tall so a secure yard for her to play in with a privacy fence would be great! She is a little alpha acting with other dogs, but does like their company. Active girl and super pretty too!  ##1734559##

Story
No fault of his little Luke was surrendered to us. He needs an active home with older kiddos as he loves to jump and chase as most Terriers do. He is a fun boucy little guy that needs a fenced yard or to be on leash when outside due to also his terrier breed.  ##1857570##

Story
Harry and Eleanor?? Such SERIOUS names for a couple of goofy pups! We came from a somewhat sad and seriously MESSED up place but now we may be a little shy but we are definitely NOT SERIOUS :) We are JRT/Rat Terrier mixed siblings, each of us is cute and loving in our own right. Under 15# of absolute adorableness is who we are. We are both still a little nervous, I mean we came from a pretty horrific situation so know that we were not handled and loved on until the last month or so in our foster home... but we are learning so much and having a blast! We are great together but do not have to be adopted together. We will need at least another dog with us to show us the ropes and keep us company in our new family. We are good with everyone so that will be pretty easy :) Look one of us up and ADOPT...DON'T SHOP!!! SO MANY LIVES' DEPEND ON IT!! Local adoption fee is $350 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $600 (includes transport to your area, $50 temporary fuel fee will be included)

Story
Hi future family. My name is Maggie. I am a 2 year old rat terrier/ dachshund mix. I am the perfect size weighing in around 17 pounds. I must say I have the prettiest eyes and some of the most fabulous ears you will ever see. I am nervous when I first meet people and will need time to know you are safe. But once I am comfortable you will find I am a curious and sweet little girl who very much wants to be by your side. I adore running around in the backyard, so I will need a home with a fence. I also love going for walks and foster mom feels most secure when I’m wearing my harness as I do want to chase squirrels and birds. Also there are just some things I am not sure of yet that are kind of scary and concerning, such as gnome statues and mailbox flags. So I say safety first and let me wear my harness. I have done ok with the other dogs in my foster home, but have been known to not always want to share with them. I would do best in a home with adults and/ or dog savvy older kids. I am not completely perfect with the potty thing, but am getting there and feel confident that I will master this. Maggie is up to date on all shots, heartworm negative, on heartworm preventative, microchipped, de-wormed and is spayed. Maggie’s adoption fee is $325.00. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport. WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS. If you are interested in having Maggie be part of your family, please fill out an application on AAP’s website.
