This is my beloved 18 year old Sasha. I adopted her from Ratbone Rescues when she was 13. She just survived kidney failure and pancreatitis. She is the most amazing dog I've ever known. Her spunk and spirit inspire me. She is also the alpha of my pack of 6, and still rules with an iron paw!
I feed my foster dog Mickey on the couch with me because he eats slow and if I feed him on the floor with the rest, they'll eat his food. While I was feeding the dogs the other night, and the phone rang. I got talking on the phone and didn't pick up the food bowls yet, and Sasha apparently jumped up on the couch and fell asleep in Mickey's food bowl!! I didn't see HOW she wound up in there, I just happened to look over and saw her like that. Bless her old heart.... !!!!!!!!!! I also have pix I will post, but this is the video. Unfortunately it was at night and the only light I had on was a table lamp, but you can still sorta see it!! She's a hoot this old coot!!

| What a sweetheart! I'm glad to see a rattie that old. It gives me hope that I'll have my Bob around for a long, long time. |

| Awww she was so lucky to find your home and you were so lucky to find her! These rat terriers live a long time, this is one reason I wanted this breed. |

| I have a friend in my rattie Yahoo Group that has one 18 years old, too! She, like your Sasha, looks pretty darn good. 7x18=126 years old! I don't even want to think about what I'd look like at that age! LOL |
