Chase - Rat Terrier Dog for Adoption in Clatskanie, Oregon

Chase is a gorgeous standard size rat terrier picked up as a stray in northern California. He is about 18 months old and 16" tall at the shoulder with long legs (as you can see in the photos).
Chase loves everyone he meets, including most dogs as long as they are friendly. He still pulls with excitement sometimes on leash and would benefit from a starter obedience class in his new home. He adores new people, old people and kids but might be too bouncy for young children.
Chase has been house trained and is house safe in his current foster home, but we do advise a belly band in a new house for a few days until he gets used to things. He rides well in the car - loose for short distances and crated for longer trips. He will crate politely at home also.
Chase would love a home with active adults - hiking, dog sports - and another friendly dog to play with. Secure fencing is a given. This boy has an amazing future ahead of him with the right folks - agility, nose work, barn hunt, NASDA, he would excel at any of these activities.
Chase alternates between Boise and Newport, Oregon, in his foster home, but transport can be arranged anywhere in the PNW for the right family. His adoption fee is $200.
