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 Dot (VA)

Beauty's only skin deep? Not with Dot! Her uniquely colored coat is just an extra layer of charm on this delightful 2-year-old rat terrier, who is a beautiful blend of sweetness and energy. Dot's playful nature will have you laughing as she runs after a ball. In fact, as long as you're home most of the time and always ready to throw that ball, Dot would be delighted to be an only dog. But if you're not, she would enjoy having a canine companion close to her size (12 lbs.) as a playmate. Although she has the stamina for a 2-mile walk, she's happy with shorter, more frequent outdoor explorations (which also help her earn top marks in house-training). On those walks, Dot's busy neighborhood can offer distractions, but she's fine-tuning her leash skills and learning to take things in stride. Any children she meets are OK, but their small dogs? WAY better! Dot's sweet, serene side is equally impressive. She loves to cuddle and fits perfectly into any lap, making her the consummate companion for quiet nights at home. At bedtime, she'll sleep through the night in her crate or with you if allowed, and during the day, she can be crated for short periods with little fuss. Dot also rides well in a car inside her crate, even for long drives. Highly food motivated and an eager student, she has learned "sit" and how to use a sandpapered board to file her nails. Curious, gentle, and funny, Dot is ready to learn more, explore new surroundings, and fill your home with love, laughter, and endless cuddles. Adopt Dot and experience the special love that only a pet like her can provide. For more insight into her amazing personality, take a look at Dot's photo album https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/dot .
