Buster – ADOPTED!!
ADOPTED!! Buster may only weigh 9 pounds, but he is full of personality and attitude! This little guy is only 10 to 12 months old, and weighed 5 pounds when he and his brother were picked up as strays. He was skin and bones and had a few absessed wounds from larger dogs. His ears had fly bites, so we assume they were “yard dogs.” But Buster is fat and healthy now, and loves being inside with his foster mom. He badly needs socialization, because he is afraid of strangers. We are working on that. Buster is being fostered in Mastic Beach, NY, and his brother has already been adopted. Buster learned the doggie door, and is doing wonderfully with his house training. He loves to sleep in the big bed with his foster mom, but has also been crate trained. Buster is, however, serious about guarding his treats and chewies, so we do not think a home with small children would be appropriate for him. He doesn’t know he’s tiny! We suspect he may be part chihuahua, because of his tiny size, but his “attitude” is all rat terrier! He loves being held by his foster mom, and looks forward to meal time!

Please reply.
I’m very interested in Buster as I just lost my almost 17 year old rattie and I can’t not have a rattie in my life. I’m in NJ and I’d love to meet him and adopt him if we love each other. Is he still available? Please let me know. I can be reached by email or by calling 732-754-4216. We have a full house and a fenced in yard and a lot of love and attention to give a dog.
