great job iam ..
we have had rescue dogs as well. we got vicky an 11 lb rat terrier and had her for 13 years, we got her at 2, she passed in sept. 2012 of slow kidney degradation. She had a great quality life )right up until the last couple of months or so, then it her her full bore, special diets , phosphorus absorbing elixirs didn't help at that point, her kidneys just went off a cliff....she lost 3 lbs and we had a vet visit the home and she went to doggy heaven in our arms.
we mourned for 3 months then got another rescue , rat terrier, what they call a 'blue', shes only 6 lbs, has a hitch in her left leg due to having it broken and not set properly at the breeder they shutdown. Her name is Achazia....shes 3.....
My first dog I had when I was 4 years old was a Rat terrier. She was mostly white with copper/brown ears and three spots on her back. Aptly we named her "Penny" cause the first thing I said when we got her as a pup was "she looks like she has pennies on her back".
She lived to be 14. Died in my arms at the vet. I'll never forget her. Loved that dog.
