Roo Roo Rat Terriers

Babies all passed out together after zooms this evening. Pizzaz found them like this and decided to carefully climb on top of the pile.

PD: All of the Pizza Pups are piled into a small pet bed on the floor. They barely fit and are spilling out onto the floor. Pizzaz is carefully perched in with them and is looking at the camera.

Bedsheet pups at about two weeks old. So snuggly and pictured laying on red and white striped fabric. S*x and color of puppies is in the caption of each photo.

Finally introducing the Race Car pups. Here they are at about a week old 🥹 PD= the pups are pictured individually laying on a tiny rectangular fleece bolster bed originally designed for ferrets. The exterior of the bed is white with multi colored polka dots and the inside is solid orange. Pup names are in the photo caption and additional details can be found by scrolling a few posts back.

Two weeks of Pizza Pups. (PD = the pizza pups in front of a wood background and one week later in front of a red plaid fabric backdrop. In each photo, the photographer is holding the pup with her left hand)

Pack Rats at about a week old. They're small but move around so strongly, pushing with those back legs. Maybe we have some future kickers on our hands 🏈💚🐶💛 the Pack Rats pups are snuggly on a nest of dark blue fabric that has small light blue flowers with red stems. Their eyes are still shut in these photos. Pup names are in the caption, s*x and color details are in the album description or by scrolling a few posts down

CJ has a tendency to make this hilarious noise of frustration when dinner is too late or whenever she is in any way unimpressed with her current circumstances. We call this her angry race car noise. She first shared this amazing vocal performance during crate training as a young puppy, and she has kept it in her repertoire to make sure everyone understands her opinions. In honor of her expressive nature, and since this is her last litter, this is the Race Car Litter.

The little black tricolor in this photo is Sashay from our "Walk This Way" litter. Vortex, the little blue guy is from Robinsdale Ratties. Sashay stayed with Meghan to be her spoiled little snuggle buddy and will not be bred. Vortex is Sashay's bestie, and we are also hoping he will be a future papa here. Sashay is 7 months old. Little Vortex is almost 4 months old, so we expect he will make it to the 4 lb range or so and help keep our toy lines alive.

PD: Vortex and Sashay are snuggled together on Meghan's lap.

Meet the Bedsheets Litter 😴💤💜🌜 PD = all six bedsheets puppies are posed on bright green fabric with tiny red and yellow flowers on it. Puppy names are in the caption and descriptions of s*x and color are in the album description or by scrolling a few posts back.

Hi babies! Though they were not born in bed, we decided to follow up with some bedsheet babies after the mattress crew, because these pups have the same parents.

The Pizza Pups at about three weeks old. 🥺💕🍕🐾 Eyes are open and they're squirmy wormies (meaning they're hard to get pictures of. Ha!) PD = the Pizza Pups are held in the photographer's left hand under their little armpits. They are in front of a black and white chevron curtain. Pup names are in the photo caption and color descriptions/s*x is in the album description or by scrolling a few posts back to their birth announcement.

Meghan has been at Miata's side all day today. I bet you can't guess what's been going on. We will have photographic evidence soon, but wanted to stop by to simply say that Miata is one exceptional, fantastic, loving, trusting, and devoted darling. Happy Thursday facebook, happy birthday baby Roo Roos!

The Pack Rats 💚🏈🐶💛 the five Pack Rats pups are laying on gray quilted material. They are posing with velvet decorative pumpkins that are orange, dark blue, and white. Names of puppies are in the picture captions and descriptions of puppy markings and colors are in the album description or can be found by scrolling a few posts back.

With every single one of my girls, the last couple days of puppy watch are so tranquil and beautiful. It is incredible to snuggle my girls close and wonder who I'm going to meet in a couple of days. I have been cherishing this time with Miata and CJ. Puppies should be here Pretty soon.

Here they are! Please help us welcome Charm and Romeo's Pack Rats! Meghan's brother Sean gets the credit for the names of these pups.

These little guys and gals are named after some of the Green Bay Packers quarterbacks. Thank you to RobinsDaleRatties for the chance to host this pretty family. We are enjoying our time together. Please read our pinned post about how we match, place and raise our puppies. There are a couple of pups still available in this litter, but due to the way we place them, we cannot tell you which will and won't be available.

PD: Beautiful pearl and white Charm is posing for her classic Roo Roo litter pic snuggled in her whelping box with her puppies. She looks alert, and her tiny babies are gathered together in front of her.

Almost all eyes are open, and in the case of Mozzarella, only one eye has made it to this milestone 😉🍕🐶🐾 PD all the Pizza pups are laying on white fleece. Their names are in the caption and their colors and markings can be found in thr album description or an earlier post on this page.

Watching sweet little Charm like a hawk! Her puppies will be here any day now. I cannot wait to welcome her clan of little piebald pups into the world. Reach out if you might want to ring in the new year with one of these kids.

Good morning from these sleepy babies. They were too cute not to share when I came in for morning bedding change.

PD: The Pizza litter pups are all piled up on their bed. Most are sleeping, but some look like they might be waking up. Eyes are still mostly shut.

Look at my little Charm! That belly is growin'! We're on puppy watch soon. She is the embodiment of her name. This baby has the sweetest little wag, trots full throttle across the yard or house when I call her, and loves to nuzzle and give kisses. She's been with me for a short time, but she's swept me off my feet and snagged her own little piece of my heart. let us know if you might be looking to be charmed yourself this winter.

PD: Meghan is holding Charm, and you can see her growing belly....Charm's, not Meghan's belly. Haha!

Even tiny babies participate in tongue out Tuesday! Basil is such a darling!

PD: Tiny blue and white Basil's eyes are still closed. His little pink tongue is poking out.

Mid-November might be very merley. Is that a word? Well, now it is. Miata (solid chocolate) and Calamity Jane (solid black) were both bred to our handsome black merle boy Vesper. If you are curious what these pups might look like, check out Sushi's litter from April of 2022 and the Mattress litter also born in April of 2022. CJ and VEsper's pups grew up to be from about 12-20 lbs, and Miata and Vesper's pups range from about 9-12 lbs. Between these litters, there is potential for pretty much the entire rattie rainbow. They could both have solid or piebald pups. Please see comments for goofy interviews with the parents and Meghan on the back deck yesterday.

PD: Miata is a solid chocolate with a white chest, there is a collage of photos of Leah and CJ selfies, and a photo of Vesper on Meghan's lap.

This litter is pure Roo Roo! Both parents were born here, and it is really fun to be able to say we personally know so many dogs in their family tree. Please give a warm welcome to Pizzaz and Illusion's "pizza Litter." Unlike typical pizza delivery which always seems to leave you waiting longer than expected, these puppies came a day early. Way to go mama! You always exceed expectations!
These puppies are likely all sold to our waitlist, but we have litters coming in November, too. Please reach out to start the application process if you are interested in a Roo Roo of your very own.

This girl and I have been snuggling all night. She's telling me puppies are coming very soon. Join me in wishing dynamic little Pizzaz all the best this weekend. I've got you baby girl. I always do.

PD: Pizzaz is sleeping on the bed stretched out on her side.

Charm (pearl and white piebald), and Romeo (black and white piebald) are expecting pups in early November. Charm just came to us from RobinsDaleRatties a couple of weeks ago. We are excited to host this mama and her babies. We are expecting black, bllue, chocolate, and pearl piebald pups. There is potential for sable or brindle as well. Both parents are genetically cleared for PLL, PRA-PRCD, CDDY-IVDD, and DM. Pups will probably be in the 10-15 lb range or so. This pack of little spotty pups will be ready to go home shortly after the new year. Let us know if part of your New Year's resolution is to acquire, spoil, and love a baby rattie of your very own. Just a friendly reminder that we do have an extensive application process outlined in our pinned post at the top of the page.

PD: Two photos of Charm and Romeo together out in the lush green grass. They have erect ears, and they are both happily panting.

NO LONGER AVAILABLE, ADOPTION PENDING

*****
We are surprised to report that this darling has had no serious inquiries yet. Safari is the perfect snuggle buddy. Please contact us if. Interested.

There are definitely some babies in that belly! We are on puppy watch this week. Stay tuned for Pizzaz babies. This litter is likely all spoken for, but please watch our page for another litter announcement soon.

PD: pizzaz is standing with her front paws up on Meghan's legs, and her big belly is on display. Meghan is hugging her around the shoulders.

Safari will be a year old in November. She is a sweet little girl weighing in at about 9.5 lbs. Safari would do best in a family where she would regularly have a lap to curl up on, and minimal if any time in a crate. She is shy when first settling in, but she is such a doll. Her favorite things are zoomies and lap time. Her perfect family will be patient and willing to give her the time to get settled into her new life. Please reach out if you might be interested in our girl. Safari must be returned to us if the placement doesn't work. We require a two week trial with any older puppies and adults that we place to ensure everyone's happiness together. We will want to have a lengthy conversation with you, and will require a completed application, 2 personal references, and a vet check. Photos of Meghan holding a black and brown brindle piebald rat terrier. Videos of Safari in the comments.

We are super excited to announce that mid-October will bring us babies from this goofy sweet duo. Pizzaz (chocolate female) is 17 lbs. She is cleared by parentage for PLL, PRA-PRCD, and DM, and tested clear for CDDY-IVDD. She is certified clear/normal for cardiac, patellas, elbows, and lgp through OFA, and her hips are certified good through OFA. Pizzaz was born here from Miata and Chaos' "Golden Girls" litter. illusion is the sire. He is a blue sable piebald, and he is genetically cleared by parentage for PLL, PRA-PRCD, Dm, and CDDy-IVDD. He has clear/normal cardiac and patella clearances through OFA, and will be tested for hips, elbows, and LGP after his second birthday. Illusion was from the "Horse Fair" litter from Oasis and Nudge. He is 15 lbs. These two can produce blacks, blues, sables, and possibly apricots/lemons. We have been anticipating this litter for quite some time. There are already three deposits on these pups, so please reach out to start the application process if you might be interested. Please watch our page for litter announcements for the rest of our fall pups in a few weeks. We've got some knockout pups coming in November, too!

PD: A collage of photos of pizzaz and Illusion showing their confirmation and goofy personalities. Pizzaz is a well-muscled chocolate tricolor with Irish markings. Illusion is a blue sable piebald, and he is a little bit more leggy, but he is also very nicely muscled.

Good morning! Things are busy here at Roo Roo Palace! We will hopefully be announcing upcoming litters within the next few weeks. Some of these future pups will be sired by handsome Vesper. We are currently considering finding retirement homes for some of our adults ranging in age from 3-6 years or so. Vesper is not on the list of dogs being considered for placement. We are in no hurry, and we would be matching the adult to the interested family. For this reason, we are not posting anyone in particular as available. In order to raise, love, and place dogs and puppies ethically, we need to sometimes place retired dogs. No matter how much Meghan adores every single dog, she cannot give them all everything they need and deserve if no one ever gets placed. Please send a private message or email [email protected] if you might be interested in any of these dogsPlease note that we will require a completed application, 2 personal references, a vet reference, at least 1 conversation about whichever dog we might consider for your home, an adoption fee, and a 2 week trial to make sure he or she is settling in well with you. For this reason, we typically place our adults in driving range of Madison Wisconsin so we can easily get them back home if it is not a good fit.

PD: Vesper is a black merle tricolor mail. He is solid with a white chest and tan points.

Zula and Zazzy heard it was national dog day, which is easy to believe because their ears are so big! (PD = Zula a blue rat terrier and Zazzy a chocolate rattie side by side with big upright ears)

The heat has finally broken so it is prime porch sitting time with the Roo Roo Crew. PD = 1) Miata, a solid chocolate standing on the deck and intensely staring at the camera 2) Illusion a tan piebald rat terrier stares off to the right, keeping a watch over the yard.
