Update, 10/29/08: Oh, yays! I’m happy to report that Miss Maizie has been adopted! This little lady has been on my mind all summer, in no small part because of her striking resemblance to our own rat terrier girl. Best wishes to Maizie and her new family!
OK, OK, so I know I featured a rat terrier just three weeks ago…and I want to mix it up, really I do. But when I stumbled upon dear old Maizie, I just couldn’t resist! You see, she’s the spitting image of my own senior female rat terrier, Kaylee. Seriously, the two could be sisters. (Literally; my Kaylee was found in an abandoned house with two other girls – another of which we also adopted – so we know little-to-nothing of her history, or even her true age for that matter. So she and Maizie could be related, for all we know!)
Let’s do a side-by-side, shall we?
Here’s Maizie:
…and Kaylee:
The spitting image, I say! Except, looks like Maizie’s body has seen better days than Miss Kaylee’s.
Anywho, I would snap this lady up in a second if I didn’t already have my hands full with five little furballs (four of which are rats…rats rock!).
So, back to Miss Maizie. According to her foster people at LL Dog Rescue,
Maizie is a 10 year old, black and white, Senior Rat Terrier that found her way to LL Dog Rescue when her mother moved to a nursing home. Maizie is leash trained and house broken. She has limited sight, so she needs a quiet home.
