Say hello to Scooter!  Scooter is about a year and a half old, and he’s quite small boned, about 13 inches at the shoulder and weighs about 15 pounds.  Scooter has long legs, and is a rattie version of Bambi.  He loves to give kisses – to any willing humans and his fellow rat terrier brothers and sister.  Scooter LOVES to play and really needs a playmate to keep him happy.  He plays nicely and does not get rough so he would not be a concern for smaller playmates.  He loves to chew on rawhides, pork skin rolls, and especially Yak chews!  If you provide him with plenty of chewies, he will be a happy boy!  He is not a picky eater and will gently take snacks from hands.  He does not like his crate and will let you know for the first 15 minutes of confinement.  After that, he will quiet down and go to sleep.  He is happiest when he gets to sleep in the doggie bed by the human bed; or at the foot of your bed, to keep your tootsies warm.  He rides very nicely in the car.  He is a little shy but will grow more confident quickly as he becomes used to a new person.  He has not shown any aggression towards any humans or other animals.  He is housebroken, and loves his doggie door.  Due to his small size, he would be best handled and cared for by older children of 7 years or older.  He had shown an interest in cats but not in an aggressive way – he’s probably trying to figure out if the cat wants or needs a couple of kisses!  For more photos of Scooter, check his photo album:

 Introducing Jack Sparrow!  Jack Sparrow is about a year old, maybe a year and a half, and weighs around 10 pounds.  And just like any young dog, he is full of energy and loves to play!  He wakes up when the alarms go off and is ready to start his day playing.  He loves playing ball with his foster sister Darla, who is a former ResQ alumni.  Jack even liked going to the vet; it meant new people to play with!  The office staff reported that he just wanted to play, play, play, and they had a hard time watching him leave when his surgery was done.  Jack is housebroken, and is a pro at using the doggy door.  We haven’t tested him with children, but he greets visitors and new people with a friendly attitude and was not afraid of anyone, so he would probably be good with older children.  His favorite thing is his nightly massage, and he loves to be groomed with the Furminator.  Jack is very smart!  He has already learned the command of “come”, and is learning stay, sit and fetch.  Be sure and let us know if you want to make Jack a part of your family, so we can tell him to pack his bags!  This boy really deserves a home of his own, and a family who will play with him.  For more photos of this handsome young man (and videos) in his foster home, check his Image Event album here:
