I was asked today if I can help this ratterrier find a forever home. Her owner is a divorced mom, her kids are all grown and the mom has started dating and does not have time to care of her ratterrier any longer. She is now wanting to find her a new home and the kids can not take her either because of where they live or other reasons. I don't have a too many details at this time but will be getting more info tomorrow. I even forgot her name... grrr
She is about 4 years old, house trained, loves people, kids and other dogs. She is not very big, and I hear that she is just a sweetheart. I was told that she is about the same size as my Molly girl. Molly is 11 pounds but thinner then this little girl. I have not seen her in person yet but she will be coming by for me to see her and get better pictures of her. These two were taken with a cell phone so I am not sure how good they will be.
I am not sure what the owner will do if she can't find her a forever home. I will try to find out, surely I would hope that she would not send her to a shelter. I feel bad for the rattie in that she will loose her owner, how confussing for this little pup. I can't take her in because I will be caring for "two" grand babies in about 7 months. So I won't have the time for additional ratties because I have Molly and still doggie sit Busta for my daughter. I just feel that with Kasey, two new borns and two ratties will be enough for me to handle without adding another rattie to my daily routine. And it would break my heart to have to re-home her if it didn't workout here.
Can anyone help in placing this little girl? I will have more details tomorrow that I can answer any questions and add additional info. |
