Notes from New Rattitude, Inc.

Pretty Daisy is a 5-year-old, 10 lb. Chihuahua/rat terrier mix who was rescued from a Georgia shelter after her owner passed away. She's a tiny, delicate, 100% good girl with a sweet nature, a growing sense of adventure, and some very definite opinions about how life should be lived.

At home, Daisy loves being close to her foster mom and foster brother, burrowing under blankets for naps, finding a sunny spot to lounge in, and enjoying what she believes should be an endless supply of food and treats. She also has a playful side and loves soft, fluffy toys that she can fling around, chase, and play fetch with. Daisy is house-trained as long as she's given regular opportunities to go outside.

Daisy has become much more excited about walks and outings as she's settled into foster life. She loves exploring and sniffing everything along the way—the flowers, the grass, that particularly interesting spot on the sidewalk. She's also always happy to stop for pets from people and say hello to furry friends along the way. Any potential adopters should know: this is Daisy's world, and we are just living in it!

Daisy would love a canine companion close to her size and temperament. Because she's such a little, delicate dog and has shown some mild resource guarding with her foster brother, she'd do best in an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy children. Her dream household would include someone who is home much of the day or, even better, is happy to let Daisy tag along wherever they go.

Basically, Daisy is looking for a warm lap, cozy blankets, toys and snacks, a little fur buddy, and someone who lets her be the queen of the castle.
