Fostered in Windsor

Branch is a 1.5 year 30 lb male Decker Rat Terrier mix. He is up to date on vaccines & neutered. He is a very happy go lucky guy and LOVES to cuddle. He is a typical Velcro dog.

Branch has a dog friend & a cat friend at his foster home, he loves them both. Often he curls up with them both and has a nap. He loves the snow, boy can he run circles around the yard. A fenced yard is best for him.

Branch does all his potty business outside. He does really well on his leash and loves to explore, he also enjoys car rides. I do crate him while I’m at work, but never when I’m home.

He sleeps in the bed and snuggles all night with no issues. He also loves to play with toys. He is still a young dog and has the energy to play a lot. Best to have some really good chew bones/toys. He’s not chewed on anything here that he's not supposed to.

He hasn’t been kid tested but I’m sure he’d be good with them. Branch really is the perfect package.
