Story
Coming Soon : WyattThis senior came to us after being surrendered to the shelter along with their housemate. The owners were moving and couldn’t take them. Wyatt, though a senior, is an active sweet boy who loves taking walks, hanging out with his family and enjoying all life has to offer. He is heart-worm positive which we are in the midst of treating. He loves other dogs enjoying their company. He is housetrained, impeccable manners and overall just about perfect! We are learning more about Wyatt and will update as his true personality has started to shine through. ***Please Note: All the available dogs listed on our website are getting spoiled in private foster homes. If someone has caught your eye and you wish to arrange a meet and greet, we do need you to fill out the adoption application. When your adoption application is received our screening team will verify the information given.

Story
Rosie's world looked rather bleak on the day her owner abandoned her outside a veterinarian's office, leaving her chained there and enduring the pain of an injured tail. At least, she was placed where she would be easily discovered, and soon New Rattitude came to the rescue with medical care and a loving foster home. The 6-year-old rat terrier did end up having her tail removed, but she is all healed and good as new and super excited to find her forever home.   Not surprisingly, Rosie doesn't like being left alone. She needs to be with someone who works from home or who is retired and stays home most of the time. Take it from us, at an easy-to-fit-in-your-lap 14 lbs., this girl is so cute, you'll want to be with her day in and out. Rosie enjoys getting cozy and loving on her person. She is house-trained and crate trained and knows how to walk nicely on a leash. Rosie loves being outdoors, running around, and going for walks. She's working on not reacting to the other dogs and people she encounters, so her foster mom brings along treats to help Rosie have positive associations with everyone. Rosie's talent for stopping to smell everything also plays an important role in helping her to be a well-mannered walker.   Rosie gets along OK with the other dogs in her foster home and loves to play with them as long as she gets to decide how, when, and where they will play. She'll issue her invitations with a play bow, lick, or exposed belly, and she'll counter unsolicited advances by barking or growling and walking away. As long as her humans are willing to serve as playmates, she might be content to be an only dog.   Rosie is ready to be your consummate cuddler under the covers at night and your constant and close companion during the day. Check out additional photos and video at https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/rosiecharlottenc , and imagine yourself giving Rosie the rosy future she deserves. 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. March 26, 2024, 10:48 am
