The Rat Terrier comes in a variety of sizes. They are great with children and other animals. They make great little watch dogs as well as excellent companions. They are an 'affectionatemagnet', and love to be where you are! They have a great zest for life, are endlessly entertaining, and just a great companion all the way around. The Rat Terrier has the smooth coat which requires little and easy grooming. A weekly brushing keeps them looking great along with a bath when needed. They have two ear sets, the tipped ear and the erect ear set. Both are correct for the breed.

A popular farm and family dog in the twenty's and forty's, the Rat Terrier is once again regaining popularity and finding their way into the hearts and homes across the globe. On the farm, in the city...and everywhere in between, the Rat Terrier makes a wonderful, smart, loyal, and loveable companion!
