N.Y.C. dogs on Rat Patrol


Recommended Posts

Those dogs were having so much fun. My worry is the rat germs they may be bringing home to a New York apartment.

When I was growing up we had a little rat terrier named Susie. We would visit my grandparents who had a barn they had partially converted into a garage. Susie would go berserk when she smelled the rats. She would rush into the barn, barking and digging. Her record number of trophies was around a dozen dead rats in an hour. Afterwards, she would plop down in the old straw, exhausted.

I was thinking the same thing about the exposure to the rat's germs....they must be immune to some extent.

Rat terriers have an interesting resume...an intelligent & fun breed.
