Story
Meet Lia A Tiny Terrier With a Big Future and So Much Love to Give Breed: Rat Terrier Mix Gender: Female | Age: 3 Months DOB: July 10, 2026 (Estimated) Weight: 3.75 kg / 8 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Personality: Playful | Curious | Sweet | Lively (Typical Puppy Traits) Medical: Vaccinations Current | Spay Status: Unknown | Microchip: Not Provided Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Safe transportation coordinated for approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Lia is an adorable 3-month-old Rat Terrier mix weighing approximately 8 pounds. This precious little girl is just beginning her journey through life, and she's looking for a loving family to help her grow into a happy, confident companion. At three months old, Lia is still very much a baby. She's at an important stage of development when everyday experiences, gentle guidance, and positive interactions can help shape her confidence and behavior as she grows. Rat Terriers are often known for being intelligent, curious, lively, affectionate, and full of personality. Despite their smaller size, they can be energetic little dogs who enjoy exploring, playing, and spending time with their families. As a Rat Terrier mix, Lia may develop some of these wonderful characteristics as she matures. She would benefit from a family that can provide age-appropriate playtime, gentle exercise, mental enrichment, positive socialization, and plenty of affection. Because Lia is still growing, her adult size cannot yet be determined from her current weight alone. With patience, consistency, and love, Lia has the opportunity to grow into a wonderful lifelong companion. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect At only three months old, Lia is still learning about the world. Her future family should be prepared for the normal responsibilities of raising a young puppy. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best, so adopters should be ready to continue working on potty training, crate training if desired, leash walking, basic commands, recall, appropriate chewing, household boundaries, and positive socialization. Rat Terriers are often clever and eager to explore, so positive reinforcement, patience, repetition, and consistent routines will be especially important. Short, enjoyable training sessions will help Lia develop confidence while strengthening the bond she builds with her new family. Her adopter should also understand that puppies require supervision, structure, and time. Accidents, chewing, teething, and occasional mischief are all normal parts of puppyhood. Lia will need a family willing to invest the time and effort required to guide her through puppyhood and into adulthood. The 3-3-3 Rule 3 Days: Time to decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Time to understand her new household routine. 3 Months: Time to build trust, settle in, and begin feeling truly at home. These are guidelines rather than deadlines. Every rescue dog adjusts at their own pace, and Lia should be given the time she needs to feel safe and secure. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Lia's vaccinations are current, and her spay status has not yet been confirmed. Because she is only three months old, her adopter should review her medical records with a veterinarian to determine whether she needs additional puppy vaccine boosters, deworming, flea and parasite prevention, microchipping, or other preventive care. If Lia has not yet been spayed, her future family should discuss age-appropriate spaying with a veterinarian. As a growing puppy, Lia will need quality puppy nutrition, regular veterinary examinations, appropriate exercise, dental care, grooming, nail care, and continued preventive healthcare. Because she is still small and developing, her family should also provide safe play areas, gentle handling, and supervision around larger dogs or young children. Adopting a puppy is a long-term commitment that includes the time, financial responsibility, training, and care necessary throughout her life. Adoption Information If you are interested in adopting Lia, please complete an adoption application: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs in need and helping them find safe, loving forever homes. While based in Southern California, we coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Our goal is to give every dog the best possible chance of finding the right family and a home where she will be loved and cared for throughout her life. Adopting Lia means committing to her training, veterinary care, exercise, safety, companionship, and happiness throughout her life. Lia may be tiny today, but she has a whole lifetime of love, adventures, and wonderful memories waiting ahead of her. At just three months old, she's looking for someone who will be there for every milestone, every new discovery, and every little victory. This sweet little Terrier deserves a family who will love her as she grows and give her the happy ending every puppy deserves.

Story
This little guy has some serious main-character features. First, there are his ears. We are not entirely convinced Sebastian’s ears are not secretly satellite dishes. They are adorable, expressive and somehow always seem to be listening to absolutely everything. He looks like someone designed the cutest little tricolor dog possible and then added a few extra-special details just for fun. Go watch Sebastian Goodfellow | Those Ears, That Charm on YouTube and prepare to fall in love with those ears—and then discover that his personality is somehow even more lovable. https://youtu.be/ftW0Djv9xio Sebastian is approximately six years old, weighs around 22 pounds and we believe he may be a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. With rescue dogs, breed and age are always our best guesses rather than guarantees. Whatever may be in his family tree, Sebastian landed at a perfect small-medium size with an enormous amount of charm packed into him. Sebastian has a wonderful, easy confidence. He navigates new situations beautifully and meets other dogs with calm, polite social skills. He has done well with dogs his size, smaller dogs and dogs considerably larger than him. Whether the dogs around him are playing, running or simply relaxing, Sebastian is perfectly content sharing the space and going about his business. He could comfortably live with canine companions, but he does not need another dog in his home. His heart throbs for people. He was also wonderful when he met our house cat. Sebastian remained polite and composed, giving us every reason to believe he could be a good match for a home with a dog-savvy feline friend and proper introductions. One of our favorite things about Sebastian is how quickly people fall in love with him. He is friendly and deeply affectionate, but never demanding about it. He will happily snuggle up beside you when affection is available, but if you look busy, he is just as content curling up on the other side of the couch and keeping you company. He has an easy, happy presence that makes him feel at home almost immediately. Sebastian is house trained, crate trained and has been a wonderful little houseguest. He walks beautifully on leash and would make an excellent sidekick for neighborhood strolls and everyday outings. He also enjoys treats and takes them with the softest, gentlest mouth. The best thing about Sebastian is, hands down, his personality. He is lively, affectionate, a little goofy and equipped with just the right amount of spunk. He has a way of making ordinary moments more entertaining simply because he is there, whether he is trotting through the house, carrying a toy or supervising the room with those highly advanced ears. At approximately six years old, Sebastian offers a particularly lovely balance. He is happy and curious, with plenty of personality and enthusiasm, but he also knows how to settle down and enjoy a peaceful afternoon on the couch. He is confident without being over the top, affectionate without being needy and social without requiring constant entertainment. Sebastian Goodfellow is simply a really solid, all-around wonderful dog. He meets the world with good manners, a happy spirit and the kind of effortless charm that makes him easy to love. Whether he joins a home with other animals or becomes someone’s one-and-only sidekick, Sebastian is ready to fit right in. We are happy to help determine whether Sebastian could be the right match for your household.

He loves being around people, enjoys interaction, and carries himself with the confident, entertaining energy Terrier lovers know and adore. He has matured beautifully into a lively companion who still enjoys playtime and activity while also loving affection and companionship from his humans. Penguin thrives when he feels included and part of the action. As a Jack Russell Terrier / Rat Terrier mix, Penguin may show traits such as intelligence, curiosity, alertness, and playful energy. Both breeds are known for being highly engaging, clever little dogs who enjoy staying mentally and physically active. Penguin would thrive in a home that can provide: Daily walks and playtime Mental stimulation and engagement Structure and consistency Companionship and inclusion as part of the family He would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a social, entertaining, and affectionate dog with lots of personality. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Many rescue dogs come from very different backgrounds. Some may have previously lived in homes, while others may have come from the streets, overcrowded shelters, neglect situations, or environments where they had little structure or guidance. Because of this, most rescue dogs arrive with only basic training at best, and some may have had no formal training at all. Even dogs who appear well-behaved in foster care or at the rescue are still adjusting and learning. The rescue environment itself also does not always allow for extensive one-on-one training. While we work hard to provide safety, structure, socialization, and basic guidance, adopters should be prepared to continue training and support after adoption. Penguin will benefit from: Positive reinforcement training Structure and consistency Continued socialization and engagement Mental stimulation and routine Patience during adjustment periods Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 days to decompress 3 weeks to learn your routine 3 months to fully feel at home With patience, stability, and commitment, rescue dogs often blossom into deeply loyal lifelong companions. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Owning a dog is a lifelong commitment that includes daily exercise, companionship, routine veterinary care, training, mental stimulation, and financial responsibility. Penguin will need: Daily walks, exercise, and interaction Continued training and engagement Routine wellness exams and preventative veterinary care A safe, stable, indoor living environment Consistent veterinary care, proper nutrition, preventative care, and emotional stability are all essential to helping him live a healthy and happy life. Penguin is an indoor family dog and is not to be chained or left outside.
