Announcement A Quick Word on Memorial Posts

106 Upvotes

Greetings humans and ratties!

The mod team has received some feedback on some posts recently, and we wanted to pass along some guidance so everyone can enjoy our wonderful subreddit.

Some of us love to see memorial posts, and celebrate the life of our loved ones who have passed on to the great blanket fort in the sky. It's a natural part of grieving, and can help us process the loss of a loved one.
For some, however, it may be triggering to see these kinds of posts, and they may not be ready to see something like that. That's okay, we all process grief differently.

After some deliberation and suggestion, we have decided to ask that all memorial posts have the "In Loving Memory" flair. This ensures that those who are not ready for these kinds of posts can skip them if needed. Again, this is not to discourage memorial posts. Please continue to make these posts to celebrate the life of your loved one.

Thank you!
-Mod Team

TL;DR: Please use "In Loving Memory" flair on memorial posts; memorial posts are still encouraged.

Nermal the Wonder Rat was quite fetching, at least until that last pic, haha.

I was taking these and thinking, "Truly a marvel - just SO beautiful - she's a pure, perfect specimen of rat terrier perfection...uh oh... wait. Nevermind."

😆 😂 🤷‍♀️

Sorry for the bad photos, she doesn’t hold still much. This is Sadie, the rescue we got her from said JRT mix but our vet thinks she’s a rattie! What do you think? Yes, that is her with a rabbit she caught all by herself. 😂 We love her no matter what 😍😍😍

So I had to do some travel a few weeks ago with Ranger. We drove for 11 hrs and he was a trooper. Along the way we had to get a room and I accidently left his favorite ball in the room when I checked out. Not knowing I left it until we returned home I had to search to find him another one. He is now a happy boy again. (I picked up 2 to be safe)

I took this picture I had taken of Ranger and I did a pencil drawing, added watercolor filters and I think it turned out great. All opinions are appreciated.

My husband and I are fostering this sweet girl, deciding whether we want to "foster fail" her and the shelter did not say she was a Rattie but she HAS to be, right? We are pretty sure she's got a long lineage of several different breeds but the Rattie look, energy levels, and prey drive are pretty spot on.

Did I adopt a rat terrier?

Thumbnail

341 Upvotes

We rescued a dachshund puppy (Maple) back in February of this year and around the end of summer, decided to get her a friend. We saw a litter of so called Chiweenies at a different local rescue, and we ended up adopting one (Roo). Roo originally came from a kill shelter in Texas so her exact history isn’t known and her parents weren’t put up for adoption until later, so we didn’t have any clue what she really was. As she’s grown, she looks more and more like a terrier, so I wanted to come to the experts to get your opinion. She also sheds like crazy, which isn’t common for chihuahuas or dachshunds.

I’m thinking Chihuahua/Dachshund/Terrier.

If you agree, what should I expect from her? We’ve had her for a few months and I’m slowly picking up on some quirky personality traits, but I’m more of a dachshund expert here, a little out of my element with rat terries!
