Dante

Location: Florida
Dante is a BIG 12 month old puppy with lots of puppy energy! He is CUTE and fun! Dante was listed as "free to good home" on Craigslist, and his original owner said his name was Dorky, and his former owner didn't have time to spend with him. That wasn't a very nice name, so we changed it the minute we got him. Dante is very outgoing and loves to meet new people and dogs. He is crate-trained and is learning about walking on a leash.We think he is possibly Decker Rat Terrier mixed with Boston Terrier, based on the shape of his face. Whatever his exact lineage, he is adorable. He is full of energy and loves to play! He gets along with all dogs and is kinda curious about cats at this point. More pictures of Dante can be found when you visit his album.

Mable

Seniors for Seniors Candidate
Mable came to Ratbone Rescues after her owner passed away. She has been in her foster home for a few years now, and is looking for her forever home. Mable’s weight stays around 15 pounds. She is very well mannered and leash trained; when walking, if the leash touches her backside she will stop and sit, and move only when told to do so. Mable likes to sleep curled up in her own bed (she doesn't like crates), but will jump in bed with you during thunderstorms. She loves to have her belly rubbed, go for long walks in the park, and lay around. Mable is not a barker, unless someone is at the door or in her yard. If a dog could be described as a perfect little lady – that description would fit Mable. Children love her, as do the adults who meet her. She does not play with toys or other dogs, and seems to be a loner - although the younger foster dog in the home follows her around (which Mable doesn't seem to mind). Mable will be 13 years old in 2015, and she wears her age very well. As you can see, she has a beautiful face and eyes, and with her gentle personality she is a favorite with visitors. To see all of Mable's pictures please click here. Mable does have a thyroid issue, which she takes medicine for twice daily. The cost of her medicine is $15.00 per month. Mable is a sweet, lovable dog, looking for that special someone to spend her time with. Would that be you?

Brina

Seniors for Seniors Candidate
Brina is an 11 year old diva. She was adopted from Ratbone Rescues 10 years ago, and was recently returned. Her adopter was experiencing major health issues and could no longer take care of her. It was not easy for her adopter to return her, but she had to do what was best for herself, and for Brina. Our Brina is the type of girl who likes to go for short walks (not long ones!), but she likes to go out when she very well feels like it! She is good on a leash, but will let you know when she wants to go back inside. Brina loves her crate, but likes to "try out" other crates and beds, too! She is social with dogs when she gets to know them, but was used to being an "only child". Brina doesn't like cats - but the worst she will do is bark at them if they come too close. Ms Brina is looking for her special retirement home, one where people will cater to her, put pretty collars on her, and get her lots of comfy doggie beds. She was very overweight when we picked her up, which is not good for an older gal, and she is doing well on a diet. To see more pictures of our beautiful girl, please use this link.

Mr Kip

Location: Florida
Mr. Kip was dropped off in a box in front of a Veterinarian's office in Memphis, TN (he now lives in Jacksonville, FL). His current owner took him home to foster, but after a month decided to adopt him. Kip is a very energetic dog; he loves to go on walks and play tug; his owner says he will chase a ball as long as anyone will keep throwing it. Sadly, over the past few months Mr Kip has exhibited difficulty getting along with the other dogs living in the home; there have been some aggressive incidents, and because Kip is so much bigger than his house-mates they have not fared well in the exchanges. Mr Kip is a great dog, but we believe that he would be best as an only dog. That way he can focus all of his charm and energy on making his family happy and safe. Mr Kip is 6 years old, and weighs 45 pounds. More pictures of Kip can be seen here in his album.
Note: This is a Guardian Assistance Placement (GAP) Program dog, meaning he/she has been fortunate enough to remain in his/her current home while looking for a new home. Veterinary records have been verified, but we rely on input from the owner for information on behavior and temperament.
