Story
Mister was tied to a tree. He was found all tangled and at risk of hanging by the wore he was tied with. Fortunately, a good samartian got him and provided shelter for Mister while our rescue group was able to secure him. He is a young, active and playful pup who loves to fetch! He gets along well with most dogs and has not been tested with cats. He loves children and is always happy around people, although he may be a bit shy at first. Mister is a well-balanced dog, who loves to please and be close to his people.

Story
Handsome 7-year-old Jax is an active boy, who loves all kinds of physical play and activity (jogging, playing ball, running with stuffed toys, and taking long walks). The 25-lb. rat terrier needs a lot of stimulation and exercise to quell his anxiety, which often takes the form of repetitive barking if his activity needs for the day are not met.  Jax can be a little reluctant to meet new humans and doesn't like to be touched by them. Once someone has earned his trust, he is very sweet and likes pets and spending time in their presence. However, he doesn't like to cuddle or to be picked up at all and will bite if picked up or touched in a way that is painful or threatening. He likes to sleep close to humans and other dogs but does best in his own bed. In his foster home, Jax has adjusted quickly and follows the lead of his canine foster siblings. He doesn't directly interact with any of them but proceeds throughout the day based on what they are doing. He has shown protective behavior of his food and sleeping area and will get in minor scuffles to protect his resources. He would be good in a home with another dog who is detached and independent or will at least mind his space. He would also be good as a single dog but may take longer to settle in. He hasn't been around cats but would probably be incompatible with them (or any small animals) as he has a moderate prey drive. Jax is fully house-trained and has never had an accident in the house. Plus, he's super healthy except for an allergy to chicken that manifests in ear infections and body rashes. On walks, Jax does pull on his leash a bit and loves to stop and sniff, but on jogs, he stays to the right and keeps pace well. He rides nicely in a car but doesn't like to be in a crate at all (even in the house). Indoors, he doesn't participate in naughty behavior like raiding the trash, counter surfing, or chewing on people's possessions. He's neither a digger nor an escape artist; he IS a neatnik, who keeps his toys in one place. (Now THAT's worth points!) You can see more photos of Jax at https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/jax . 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. June 8, 2023, 11:07 am

Story
NAME: Maureen Robinson (part of our "Lost in Space" group)   AGE/GENDER: 7 year old female   BREED: Rat terrier/Chihuahua mix   TEMPERAMENT: Active, playful, loving   HOUSE TRAINING: Great!   CRATE TRAINING: Good!   OTHER DOGS: She would probably prefer to be the only dog in the home.   CATS: Probably not.   CHILDREN: Dog-respectful children, 8 and older   ADOPTION DONATION: $500   HEALTH: She is spayed, microchipped, flea treated, dewormed, and is current on vaccines.  Your adoption donation goes toward offsetting the cost of this vet care as well as other incidental costs of care.    HISTORY:  Maureen was abandoned by her family when they moved away. She was rescued from dangerous conditions outside near busy streets. Our friends at Bone Voyage Rescue asked us to find her a great forever family and that is exactly what we plan to do!   NOTES FROM FOSTER HOME:  Maureen is playful, affectionate and athletic.  She gets so excited to go on walks and runs around the back yard like a mini greyhound.  She is also very affectionate and loves to cuddle next to a person and get attention.  She will engage in play with her foster sister, but also likes to have her quiet time in her doggy bed.  She would also prefer to keep her toys to herself and wants to be number one when getting attention from her people.  Maureen is house trained when kept on a consistent schedule.  She sleeps quietly through the night in her crate and rides well in a crate in the car.  Maureen is very responsive to commands but still needs some training around jumping and play biting as well as leash pulling.  Maureen loves her food and is very gentle taking treats, and has learned to sit before getting a treat.  Maureen is such a sweet, loving companion and is looking for a forever home that will continue to work on training and give her all the attention she craves   All dogs adopted from Motley Zoo come with a leash and Martingale collar (or a harness, if necessary), depending on each dog's particular needs. Each dog also receives a "Tour Gear Bag" full of brochures, coupons, and supplies for your new pup!   ABOUT MOTLEY ZOO: Welcome to Motley Zoo Animal Rescue! We are a rock and roll themed, volunteer-run, foster based, 501(c)(3) non-profit animal rescue organization based in Redmond, WA. Motley Zoo is a FOSTER BASED organization, which means our rescue animals are cared for in private foster homes (or partnering pet stores) where the animals receive one-on-one care and attention in a home environment until permanent placement is found. We do not have animals available for casual viewing and same day adoption. Due to the volunteer run structure and decentralized/ virtual  nature of a foster based group, an approved application is required to make an adoption appointment for any of our animals. If you are interested in one of our Adoptable Roadies, please email adopt@motleyzoo.org and request an adoption application (the auto-responder also has a link to our application). We will work toward getting you approved as an adopter so that we can set a time for you to meet your new best friend! Motley Zoo also runs "Rock Star Treatment Dog Daycare" in Redmond, WA where proceeds from this service, help support our rescue's vet budget- however, this is NOT a shelter. For more information about daycare or training, check out www.rockstartreatment.org. Please visit our website www.motleyzoo.org for more information! Thanks for considering adoption- we look forward to helping you find your best match in a furry friend. Rock on- The Motley Zoo Crew June 6, 2023, 11:42 pm

Story
Wilma is pretty spry for an older lady! She's about 15 pounds and 10 years old, and she loves walks and walks really well on leash. She is potty trained and does well with other dogs and kids. Her favorite activities are napping and snacking. She also enjoys sunbathing. She can climb stairs with carpeting and hops up them like a bunny. She needs to be lifted onto a couch or chair. Wilma would love to be your snuggle buddy! Can you give her the forever she's longing for?IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or $200 for cats. If you are seeing our pets posted in your state, that's because you live near a transport stop, they are not currently at that location. Petfinder lists our pets as ''Out of Town'' pets at other locations, and Adopt-a-Pet lists our location as a Transport stop. Those are currently the only options they offer to make this clear, so we put this description we've put at the bottom to explain it. You can read more about transport here: www.charmingpetrescue.org/transportWe understand transport is not an option for everyone, but we offer it at the cost we pay the transport company for those who wish to adopt from us.June 8, 2023, 9:36 am

Story
Yauli was saved by good Samaritans when found wandering the busy streets of Guadalajara and at high risk of being run over by cars. Hopefully to find her owners, they waited and searched for her family and nobody claimed her. That's when our rescue group tool her in and did a wellness check and then a complete health protocol, including testing her for tick borne diseases. She gets along well with kids and adults, most dogs and most cats. True to our vet's best guess of her being part Jack Russell, she is extremely loyal, energetic and smart. She does not bark excessively and is also a very loving dog. She does well in a crate and fairly well on leash. She loves adventures and would be the perfect match for an outdoorsy family/person or someone living close to the beach.
