Safe Haven of Iowa County

Taven (on left in photos) was a transfer from another rescue in Iowa with his bff, Lexi. These two were facing euthanasia before the rescue pulled them. They are lovable, incredibly cute, spunky Rat Terriers! On their intake exam with the vet, they were found to be in good health, although each dog has a grade II heart murmur - but this does not currently require any medication or treatment, instead just something that will need to be monitored at their regular vet visits.
Taven is much more outgoing and social with strangers, while Lexi is a bit more reserved until she gets to know you. Even at 9+ years old, Taven has plenty of energy and acts like a pup. He could stand to lose a few pounds. Terriers need lots of physical and mental stimulation to keep them busy. We would love for Taven to find a home with Lexi so they can stay together!
