About Smitty

Smitty is a one-year-old, 12-pound Rat Terrier mix with a heart full of love and a deep appreciation for human attention. We suspect he didn't get much affection in his previous life because now he can't get enough of being held, petted, scratched, and talked to. If you're looking for a devoted little companion, Smitty is ready to fill that role. Smitty gets along great with other dogs and peacefully ignores the cat. He's a quiet boy who rarely barks, sleeps nicely in his crate, eats well, and is happy entertaining himself with toys when you're busy. He responds well to gentle guidance and is making great progress with both house training and leash walking as he learns what life as a beloved family member is all about. One thing to know about Smitty: he's curious and quick, so you'll want to keep an eye on doors because he enjoys trying to sneak out behind you! Smitty is looking for a family that will provide the love, leadership, good nutrition, and regular veterinary care that every dog deserves. In return, he'll offer loyalty, companionship, and plenty of affection. Could you be the lucky person to give Smitty the forever home he's been waiting for?

Application Details:

Applications start by contacting us through Wags.
We require that an online application is filled out.
Applicants are subject to a home visit, and veterinary references will be checked. Please include a vet reference (including phone number) when applying online.
Our application process: First, an application must be approved for adoption from our rescue. Second, we determine whether the dog that has been applied for is a "good match" for the household that wants to adopt him/her. We take into consideration the dog's activity level, compatibility with other members of the household (human and other pets), etc. If your application has been approved, but the dog you applied for is no longer available, please take the time and look over our adoptable dogs again. We will make every effort to find the right dog for an approved applicant.
