Story
Frankie is a fiercely loyal little guy with a huge heart — and a strong preference for his person. At just 15 pounds, he’s a compact companion with a classic Rat Terrier personality: intelligent, spirited, and yes — a bit bossy! But if you’re a terrier-savvy person who understands and appreciates these traits, Frankie could be your ideal match. Frankie is the definition of a “one-person dog.” Once he chooses you, he loves with his whole heart. He bonds deeply and intensely, and he can be quite protective of that bond — which means he prefers a quiet home without too many new faces coming and going. He’s not the kind of dog who wants to make friends with everyone, and he doesn’t need to. He just needs you. Frankie especially adores men, and he does well with other dogs — particularly female terriers who speak his same spunky language. He’s fully house-trained, crate-trained, and walks nicely on leash. He thrives with structure and consistency and would do best with someone who can give him both. If you understand terriers and appreciate a loyal companion who will be completely devoted to you (and only you!), Frankie is waiting. He’s not for everyone — but for the right person, he’ll be everything. 🐾❤️

Story
Meet Harry, our handsome comeback kid! This sweet, slightly-over-a-year-old pup originally found his home through us as a baby, and he grew up loved. Unfortunately, life threw his adopter a pretty tough curveball, and Harry made his way back to Happy Life through no fault of his own. Now he’s looking for a brand-new chapter—preferably one with snacks, cuddles, and maybe a squeaky toy or two. Harry may give you a shy little side-eye at first, like he’s auditioning for “Most Polite Dog in the Room,” but don’t let that fool you. Give him a little time, and he turns into the happy, tail-wiggling buddy who wants nothing more than to be your loyal shadow. Once he decides you’re part of his circle, the sweetness comes pouring out—he’s loving, gentle, and oh so ready to bond with his family again. Ready to help Harry write his next happy ending? Head to happylifeanimalrescue.org to register for adoption! Once you’re registered, our team will help you set up a time to meet this special boy and see if he’s the perfect fit for your home. This sweetheart deserves a forever—and he’s hoping it might be with you.

Rat Terrier Terrier (Unknown Type, Small)

Story
Rio came to us as an owner surrender when his family was losing their home to eviction. He was one of a number of dogs in the home that needed new homes, and we were able to take 3 of them. Rio is a friendly boy who is somewhat timid when he first meets new people or encounters new situations. He warms up quickly! There's no aggression - he's just a little scared at first.\ He loves other dogs and we would like to see him in a home with at least one other dog. He was best friends with a dog in his former home, and seems to love having a canine companion or two. He would be happy to live with children 10 years old or older. Rio is a wonderful boy who will make a great family member!

Story
Blu is an exceptionally outgoing puppy! He has yet to meet a dog, cat, or person that he hasn't tried to play or cuddle with. Blu is the type of dog that will take a hike with you then take a nap on you. This puppy is sweet and affectionate and often acts as my shadow throughout the day. In addition to being friendly, he is very well trained. Blu knows the commands sit, stay, come, and paw. He will wait by his food bowl until he is given the command to eat. He is crate trained and will go to it when told. Blu's recall is also exceptional and rarely requires being leashed in the yard when he needs to go outside. As for his health, he is as healthy as a puppy can be. Blu has received all of his vaccinations and got all of his puppy checkups.
