Today, I thought I'd share a few videos of Rat Terriers that I found interesting.
The first one is of a Rat Terrier (Lilly) and a Miniature Pinscher (Louie) having a bath. First, I've always loved the song and second, there's nothing like the forlorn look of a cute, obedient dog who has resigned himself to a dreaded bath. This is "Splish Splash v. 2":
Once you see this video, you'll understand why I fell in love with it. Not only does it remind me of Sonny when we first brought him home but it makes me want to go out and get as many Rat Terrier puppies as I can find to be Sonny's playmates. Of course, I come to my senses fairly quickly as soon as Sonny starts chasing his cat-brother, Boris, around the house. This is "Breakfast":
Lilly seems to be a very popular name for Rat Terrier females. Sonny even had a sister named Lilly. This Lilly is captured here with her very young puppies. Nursing puppies are always adorable but we also get to see the puppies close up in the second half. This is "Lilly's Puppies":
I love this video because it really shows the personality of the Rat Terrier even as a puppy; energetic, playful, loving, gorgeous and funny! This is "Zoie":
Ratbone Rescues has dogs in foster homes all over the United States and also in Canada. You can find them at http:/www.ratbonerescues.com/. Please, please pay them a visit to show your support.
Now, if you're like me, you may need a tissue for this one because the idea of these beautiful dogs being abused, mistreated or simply needing a home and a little love destroys me. This is "Foster Dogs":
Okay, and if you needed a tissue for the previous video get ready to reach for the box on this one. This video is by a foster "mom" named Jacki who not only has cared for, loved and given back the lives of many Rat Terriers but included a poem that reflects her giving nature and huge heart. This is "Poem For My Foster Dog"
After that, I can only say, to see what love really is, just look at your pet!
