Story
Nickajack almost didn't return from his recent neuter surgery because the vet clinic staff all fell in love with the friendly rat terrier and wanted to keep him! His alert curiosity and his sweet, affectionate nature endear him to everyone who meets him. Although he weighs just 11 lbs., 2-year-old Nick seems bigger because of his peppy bounce, agility, and enthusiasm for life. He is eager to greet new dogs--sometimes a bit more eager than another dog might appreciate--and has no problem with cats, but his real love is for humans, particularly those who will interact with him and offer pats and affection. He lists his many skills on his resume: riding calmly in a car, crating easily, sleeping peacefully at night, walking eagerly on leash, not chewing inappropriately, sitting on request (although the butt-to-ground touch may be very brief), having good health, and being a super snuggler. Apart from some initial marking of his new territory, his house-training has also been good, as he clearly knows that pottying is for outside. Currently Nick is working on perfecting his response to 'stay,' learning to use a dog door, and settling down more quickly when newcomers come into 'his' space. See lots more photos and some videos of Nickajack in his online album at www.ImageEvent.com/beales/fosters/nickajack .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. April 22, 2024, 10:41 am
