What are
Rat
Terriers
Like?
***
Rat
Terriers
really
are
"like a
big dog
in a
small
dog
body"!
They
seem to
forget
they are
a small
dog -
except
when
they try
to
lounge
with
their
family
members
on the
chair,
couch or
under
the
blankets
on the
bed! Rat
Terriers
will
alert
bark to
unexpected
sounds
at the
doors or
windows,
yet they
aren't
typically
"yappy".
Rat
Terriers
are a
durable
breed
that can
be
handled
by young
children
without
fear of
injuring
the dog.
Naturally,
we
always
recommend
supervising
young
children
around
pets to
ensure
proper
treatment.
