Notes from A Doggie 4 You
Meet Rugrat!
Rugrat’s story started when she was found wandering on her own as a stray puppy. Thankfully, she found safety in foster care and was adopted, but through no fault of her own, she has recently returned to our care because her family developed severe allergies. They miss her terribly, which is no surprise because this adorable girl is an absolute gem!
Rugrat is everything you'd expect from a young dog—playful, curious, energetic, and always ready for her next adventure. She is an excellent candidate for a multi-pet home, as she gets along wonderfully with cats and dogs of all sizes. She also loves her toys and is always up for a game of fetch!
Rugrat does great in a home. She's house trained, likes to play fetch, play with toys and her dog friends, even does well with kids.
Rugrat is spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and current on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention.
Her adoption fee is $250. Apply to adopt at www.adoggie4you.org.
Rugrat is located in Texas, but transport is available to Washington, Portland (OR), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (KY), and along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee. Unfortunately, transport is not available to Rhode Island or Massachusetts due to state regulations.
