Ringo

Adopted!

CongRATulations to the Montgomery family!

Meet Ringo!!!  He came to his foster mom in December of 2010, and she immediately saw a “Star” quality in him!  Ringo came from a shelter in Dallas after being hit by a car and dislocating his hip.  His recovery was fast.  He also tested positive for heart worms, but after his treatments, crate rest and lots of TLC he is excited about life and a new future with his furever family!  Ringo was a little hesitant about men in the beginning but he quickly warmed up when his foster mom took him to work with her several times and was doted on by everyone!  His confidence level has grown so much and he is eager to learn and please people.  He lives with 2 dogs and a cat.  He’s fine with the cat; just mostly curious, and tries to steal her food if he can reach it!  He also lives with a very friendly little chihuahua/terrier mix and that is his play buddy!  They go to day care together once a week and share the same space and they also love to romp in the dog park.  His foster sister is a 14 year old 30 lb terrier mix who has gotten grumpy in her older years but Ringo knows his limits with her and respects them.  He loves to take walks every day and does excellent on the leash.  Ringo is 3 years old, stands 11 inches high and weighs 13 lbs.  He has the most gorgeous markings with a very unique “V” shaped marking on his head!  He absolutely loves to “burrow” under ALL blankets either in his crate or the bed!!  Ringo’s new family will be the lucky ones, because they will get a loyal and loving companion, a wonderful snuggle buddy, and a dog that loves children and animals.  He’s a great little guy with a warm heart and a kind soul!  See more great pictures of Ringo!

    Just an update from Ringo’s foster mom! He is such a great dog with a personality that shows a bit more day by day! He is no longer crated when I leave the house for any reason. His crate door stays open as he loves to go in and out of it as he pleases. He uses the doggie door when he wants or needs to go outside. He has never chewed up anything in the house and doesn’t dig in the yard. He is a very well-behaved little guy and a fast learner about everything!

    how would a person from St Louis area in Missouri go about adopting one of your dogs from so far away? Do you transport and what would the transport fee be? and what means of transport is used? Several of your male rat terriers look like wonderful possibilities for our little family. We are only looking for one addition though.
