Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet Q-Tip - tiny name, HUGE personality!

Professional greeter: believes no one is a stranger, dogs, kids, adults, all future best friends.
Already BFFs with one foster sibling; the other is still deciding if he's adorable or a lot.
Cats? Cautiously accepted. Q-Tip considers that progress.
Playtime is his love language. Needs regular exercise and patient guidance for his enthusiastic energy.
Settles nicely indoors after fun and is content to nap or entertain himself with toys.
Happy being near his people - not a lap dog, but your cheerful little sidekick.
Kids would be fantastic for him!
Quirky collector of shoes, paper, and anything left within reach - puppy-proofing is a must.
Occasionally samples house corners (interior design is a work in progress).
Wire-hair coat = no shedding! He may need a sweater in chilly weather.

Q-Tip is pure joy in scruffy form - upbeat, hopeful, and ready to bring laughter, energy, and daily celebrations into a home that will love him and keep him active.
