About this Dog
Rugrat is an adorable rat terrier mix with a very sad past. He was severely abused by a disturbed teenage boy for numerous years. Eventually the mom of the teenager admitted the child in a hospital and asked us to take Rugrat, and she moved.Because of Rugrat's past he has baggage. He is leery of strangers and introductions to new people must be slow. He currently lives with a single woman, her dog and visiting grandchildren whom Rugrat gets along well with.Rugrat needs a quiet home and patient dog experienced people that know and recognize subtle signs of stress and behavior in dogs. The new family will need to be slow and steady with handling him in the beginning.He is VERY loyal to his people. He LOVES walks and car rides. For the right big-hearted family, he will be a wonderful addition to their home. He weighs about ten pounds and is housebroken and crate trained._________________________________________________________________________Adoption Donation for Rugrat is $ 525.00WANT TO MEET RugratThe first step would be for you to go to our website at www.aear.org and then to the “Adopting a Pet” page to read about our Adoption Process which will answer many of your questions and then to fill out an Adoption Application.Also, please visit our very active Facebook Page for updates on Rugrat and our other adoptable pets with AEAR - www.facebook.com/aear.org

Adopt Rugrat and Receive Rugrat's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Rugrat's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Rugrat's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Rugrat, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Rugrat's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Rugrat was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Rugrat’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Rugrat’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Rugrat’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
