Runt is a 4 year old male, Border Collie/Rat Terrier mix. His mama was Pandora, who has already been adopted through DITR. Runt came to DITR along with his mom, and brother Blue. Both Runt and Blue are still looking for their forever homes.
This is what Runt's foster mom has to say about Runt and Blue... "Both dogs are AWESOME. We absolutely love having them here. Neither have had any accidents since their first night here. But with being in a new place, new smells, other animals, new routines, who can blame them. Both are incredibly playful. They also love to play with each other, or are more than content to pick up a toy and play alone. Runt and Blue are doing great with my own dogs, playing with them, snoozing with them, and also the cats. Both listen very well, and respond to their names. They have been a little hesitant to eat, but if you give them a little time, they will eat their meals. I'm sure it's still a little new, the routines and what not. We really don't have a bad thing to say about them. They are lovers all the way."
If you think you could be the perfect home for Runt or Blue, please fill out an adoption application. Runt and Blue do NOT need to be adopted together.
UPDATE on Runtley (aka Runt) from his foster mom:
Runtley is also flourishing... obedient with simple commands comes the moment he is called no matter what he is into~ learning toys are fun.. Runtley is also fond of cuddles and kisses and loves the outdoors as well... VERY good manners, beautiful souls they both carry...
