I am a very sturdy and beautiful 22lb rat terrier girl (my foster mom says I am trying to trim down a pound or so but not too much)

I am sweet, well trained, and I love attention.

When I first arrived I had to meet the dogs at my new foster home

I was overwhelmed by all the changes and very nervous, but I didn’t get upset with anyone in the new house.

And before too long my natural terrier inquisitive nature took over and I just had to investigate.

I love attention and treats but I am very worried about new people and very very worried about hands especially coming at my face or head.  I am not so sure I trust fast moving hands, but my foster mom said we will work on that.

I even met a cat. He is ok for a cat, he doesn’t run or scream so I just ignore him.

I am super smart and know several commands which I began to show off from the first day here!  PS don’t look too closely at the chubby shoulder and butt rolls. Mom says I have to lose a little but I say it makes me more cuddly.

We have a big fenced yard here which I love and I don’t even mind the snow too much.

I made good friends with the other dogs in the house that are close to my age.

I like to play but I am just learning about how to play with other dogs.  It must be a new thing for me.

I still get nervous pretty easily and so I need a home that understands how rat terriers think and what we need to feel secure and confident.

I am pretty comfortable hanging out alone with my humans.

But I am also fine with sharing space with another pack member as long as they are nice to me.
