Rita’s story speaks for itself—she once waited for days in the same spot after being abandoned, unwilling to give up hope that her person would return. After everything she’s been through, Rita still welcomes new people and experiences with a gentle, affectionate heart. She’s a two-year-old Terrier, weighing in at about 36 pounds, and she’s all about making the most of her second chance. Rita is spayed, current on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and fully both potty and kennel trained. She does especially well around dogs her size or larger, and her easygoing nature makes her a natural fit for most households. Despite her tough past, Rita is open, loving, and ready for stability. She’s currently in boarding and needs out fast—whether into a foster home or adopted by someone who won’t let her down. Rita has been patient long enough.
