Story

Handsome Wyatt is the quintessential rat terrier: super smart, playful, athletic, affectionate, and snuggly! He loves to play fetch and run full speed, catching the ball in the air and then teasing you by bringing it back but turning his head away at the last moment. If you're too tired to play ball, he will happily take you for a leashed walk instead. Or, if riding in the car is your thing, he is definitely always up for that, too. In fact, when you ask him if he wants to "go bye bye," he will leap into the air in excitement at the prospect of a new adventure. He is a marvelous jumper and if you hold out a toy, he will jump up to get it no matter how high your hand is. Despite his natural athleticism and love of the outdoors, this 6 year-old fella is just as happy being a couch potato, lounging in your lap appealing for belly rubs and giving kisses. In fact, giving kisses on command is just one of the tricks in his repertoire. He also will (usually) come when called, dance/spin, go to (get in) crate, and give high fives. He would be very easy to train to do other tricks you might enjoy. At 15 lbs., he is at a perfect weight and he is very healthy. He does have some anxiety, which used to cause occasional nervous piddling, but he has been on medication for the anxiety and that has largely resolved the problem. Other than this issue, Mr. Wyatt is very reliably house-trained. When he is not feeling anxious, he is a happy guy who loves people, and he warms up pretty quickly to strangers, winning everyone over with his personable, outgoing nature. He is good with kids, other dogs, and even cats. He enjoys chasing and playfully wrestling with the other dogs he lives with but he would likely also do well as an only dog so that he wouldn't have to compete for his people's attention. He would be well suited for an active family that shared his love for outdoor activities like hiking, trail rides, running, being in the woods, and time at the park.

Story

See Courtesy Posting Disclaimer * Radar is 7 months old as of 7/23/2024. He is neutered, heartworm-negative, up to date on vaccinations, and housetrained. He is a rat terrier who looks like the photos of a Majorca ratter. One look at his ears will tell you where he got his name! Radar's foster home is located in Concord, NC. This good boy is very smart and very loving. He knows how to sit and stay. He likes to shake paws, play fetch, play ball, dig in the dirt, and run! He loves the water and loves to play in the water hose. He also likes to watch animals on TV! He likes his harness on when he goes for a ride-- it seems to make him feel more secure. As he is still a puppy, he tends to chew through his leashes, so a metal leash works best. Radar is afraid of paper bags and loud noises inside, but he's not afraid of thunder or firecrackers outside. He is of a type that is bred to hunt mice and rats, and consequently he has a high prey drive and can't be trusted around small animals. Since he was rescued, Radar has not been tested in very many situations with people and other animals. He likes to play ball with some neighbor kids, but he has not been around small children. He behaved well at the vet's office where there were people and other animals. His current foster home is not active enough to give him the exercise, training, and socialization he should have. He needs an active family to give him some training and lots of play time. He is so smart that he might be able to train as a service dog. The bottom line is that Radar is a really good, young dog who needs a best friend and a loving and active forever home. He is also a gorgeous dog whose photos do not do him justice, with his sleek coat and beautiful reddish-brown highlights. Please text Loni at 865-282-7846 or email uneekseven@gmail.com if you want to meet Radar and give him the good life he deserves.
