Lefty
Sex: Male • Located in: Arkansas • Age: Young
*Lefty is being fostered in Arkadelphia, Arkansas.*
Lefty is a tall standard rat terrier, weighing 26 pounds. It’s hard to imagine, but he was a very skinny 16 pounds when he was picked up as a neglected stray. Despite all the hardships in his short life, Lefty still loves everyone. He likes men and women equally, and follows his fosterdad around when mom is busy. He gets along with all of the dogs in his fosterhome; some are much smaller than he is, and some of them are pretty bossy, but Lefty takes it all in stride. He has very long legs and loves to chase squirrels and birds in the backyard of his foster home. Because of his prey drive, he may not be good with cats, but he hasn’t been tested yet. We feel sure he would do well with children of any age, as well as any other dogs. His perfect home would have a fenced backyard so he could get plenty of exercise. Lefty tested positive for heartworms, so he is going through the treatment now, and doing great! He should be 100% healthy about the end of June when his vet gives him a clean bill of health. He is crate trained (sleeps willingly in a crate) and completely housebroken with a doggie door. He is extremely loving and affectionate, and walks great on a leash. He also likes to ride in the car! There’s just nothing bad to say about this wonderful guy. For more photos of Lefty in his fosterhome, check his album often:
