Rascal

Hi! I'm Rascal! I'm a Rat Terrier, an American breed originally bred for protecting America's farms from vermin. I'm looking for a fur-ever home!

I am 9 months old and already housebroken! I am the typical male, who will mark, but since I'm now neutered, that trait is decreasing. I respond well to training, and usually only need to be corrected once! I can sit on command and I'm working on others! I am crate trained and I go in my crate on command. I also love to run. I'm not really into playing fetch, but I'll chase the ball! You just have to go get the ball yourself!

I should warn you however... if you take me off leash I'm not likely to return! So I must have a fenced in yard or be walked on a leash at all times. (An electronic fence would not work for me as I would likely run right through it. It's a terrier thing!)

I'm quite a lover... I love to cuddle and love to sit very close to you. I'm often shy around new people, but not for long! Everyone who meets me thinks I'm very friendly. I do bark a bit at new people and animals, but once I meet them I'm up for playing! When it is time to rest in my crate, I may whine a little, but I am quiet throughout the night.

Because I do not like loud noises and I am very particular about who I let touch my feet or neck, I would not do best in a home with children under the age of 12.
