New Rattitude, Inc.

New Rattitude is a national, all-volunteer non-profit rescue/adoption agency whose mission is to rescue Rat Terriers (and mixes that are predominantly Rat Terrier) from imminent death at animal shelters, the streets, abusive/neglectful homes, or from owners who can no longer keep a dog, and to rehome the dogs into new and permanent, screened and approved adoptive homes. Each dog rescued is cared for in a safe and nurturing foster care environment where he or she receives appropriate medical care, a high quality diet, training and socialization. To achieve these ends, the organization is involved with transportation, volunteer recruiting and training, mentoring, fund-raising, and establishing and maintaining other programs deemed helpful to achieving the mission of rescuing and re-homing Rat Terriers.

Meet Abby (IL)

A royal and refined lady, Princess Abby is an absolutely precious young rat terrier/Chihuahua mix. Although timid when she first arrived to her foster home, Abby has blossomed into an "in charge" and friendly little character. She is about 3 years old and weighs 13 lbs. Abby has met and done very well with no aggression towards adults, children, young children, dogs, and cats. She gets along nicely with the cats she currently lives with and will even nap with them on the couch. She has a very strong preference for older women, but is friendly towards everyone.   Abby likes to go on walks several times during the day and has had no accidents indoors since settling in at her foster home. She likes nothing better than to greet other dogs and people while out for a stroll. She does have a strong prey instinct and will chase any wildlife she encounters. Abby is so polite that she goes to her crate on her own and will sleep there all night with a Kong and a blanket. She knows plenty of words, such as sit and wait, and will offer a paw to shake on the cue "pretty girl." Now that this princess has been rescued, it's time for her to live a fairytale life with her forever family! For more photos of Abby, go to https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/abby
