Someday the Lurkins will stop getting just cats and maybe this will be a breed we'll look into.
Thanks for posting this. It is very timely for me. Last Tuesday I went to the shelter and found a replacement for the 19 y.o. Terrier mix passed away last month.
And there she was: almost a year old, white and cream Rat Terrier. Purebred. I have no idea how she ended up in the shelter, but I couldn’t bail her out fast enough. Spectacular pooch. Of course, she’ll never “replace” my Lucky dog, but she’ll be very loved regardless.
You just made me even more glad I adopted her, and her new name is Ruby, btw.

She will make herself indespensible.
You don’t get over a dog you have loved and lost. You just learn to love again.
