My mom gave me a rat terrier puppy on my tenth birthday. The sweetest and most loving thing she ever did. Spotty was the best dog a kid could ever imagine. So much love, high energy and years of fun. ❤
My Chico, who is a 12 year old rat terrier mix does the same thing. Runs around, loving people, playtime.. and the COUCH! OMG it's so precious when they go under the couches and do a peek a boo. Obi is precious and adorable!! OMG my heart
We lost our Rat Terrier this past Monday, who was almost 14 yo. I am finding solace in watching your video, and these dogs make the best pets, smart and so lovable. I hope you have a long relationship with him. I enjoyed.
Sorry for your loss. I lost my 11 1/2 years old rattie (Jack) recently on June 14 (2023). He was my second rattie and my everything. Having a hard time with this one’s loss. He had a heart murmur and CHF. Never had to put one down before…hardest thing I’ve ever done. I miss him so very much! I’ve always told folks who lose pets that are having a hard time, to just get another. For me, this will take a little while even though I KNOW there is no other breed that can compare. They are the best! 💔😘
Lost my 17.5 year old Rat Terrier Minnie more than a decade ago and haven't been able to get another dog since. She was incredibly smart and treated each family member differently. Fastest dog in the park except for the greyhounds. Loyal as all hell. Never bit a soul in her life. I grieved for her for a very long time. Ratties are the best breed ever.
My favorite part, other than the whole video, is at 4:35 when passing the bathroom again Obi finally realizes where you are. I'd love to have 2 of him. He's precious, adorable and full up on puppy energy. 😍🐕🤣😜
we have 3 brothers and my daughters 4 of the other brothers all from the same littler that are a year and half we have so much fun with them never was much of a terrier fan . now i have them would not trade them for the world
@@lindanewburn3021 I am sorry for your loss. Texas just got diagnosed with CKD. Breaks my heart and terrifies me. Leash inside could be bc they are still training, esp house training (so they don’t have to run around chasing) or for recall.

Same my grandparents had a rat terrier that was about to be 17 but he stopped eating and they his days were numbered. Now they have a new rat terrier that almost looks like a miniature version of their older dog
I had a female ratty named CoCo, her ears didn’t stand up till she was 8 months, they flopped backwards for a couple months first, then stood up like overnight
This terrier breed was originally bred with the purpose to squeeze into tight spaces in pursuit of vermin, foxes, etc. It is in this dog's very DNA to engage in this kind of behavior.
He is adorable! We just lost our old boy (Rat Terrier) and we feel so empty...Spot was so important to us, so it is nice to see some videos of others who have rat terriers! Wendy Sowles IG: wendysowlesexploresmakeup
Please could you respond with your breeders name & phone number. I miss my rattie so much and know it is been time enough for me to get another. Maybe I could get on their waiting list for their next batch of pups. What a great & sweet dog you have there. They are the most wonderful breed! I sure enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing. 💗👍

We just got our rat terrier 9 weeks old. She doesn’t seem to listen to my commands and doesn’t come when I CALL her. I need more training tips and tricks.
My little princess Little Lady always sleeps on my bed. She loves it. She’s a cuddler at heart. She loves sitting on stuffed animals, a huge pillow, blankets, me, and other dogs. She’ll even burrow under the stuffed animals. ❤
you know, I think God had a better plan and that’s why he put that tail on that dog. I just cannot say enough about whacking off a dog’s beautiful tail for what reason why. Leave your doggy alone let him be who he is. Let him shake that little wicked wicked wacky tail all of it. What did you do with the part that got cut off, don’t do it. Leave your dog the way he or she is there beautiful wonderful dog.
I agree...is it only in North America (particularly, the USA) in which that is still happening? I think they banned it in Europe? Also, their cattle dog is overweight. I hope they feed their rat terrier prepared raw or raw dog food. I bet they over feed kibble, though, sadly.
Rat terrier what a little cutie! Looks like a fearless little protector for sure. I got Lucy, she just turned 24 years of experience. She's a border collie and now has a new little friend, that was starved and caged ,that has now been Rescued. His name's lightning⚡️ Just a thought🐴 from the cowboy🤠 from Scottsdale🏜 Arizona🌵🗽🇺🇸 @unclemartin7711

My rat terrier shadow lived to be 15 he died on his 15th birthday kidney failure miss him every day
Rat terriers just seem to enjoy life more than everyone else.
It really is the truth. I am jealous when I see how much joy he gets just from running around woth a good stick in his mouth. Pure bliss.

It’s so awesome to see a puppy. Reminds me of my old girl as a puppy, she’ll be 15 this month and is still going strong!! Love rat terriers 😄😄

I was born & raised in Fort Myers,I now live in N.California,I have a brindle rat terrier,best companion ever 👍😊
Those dogs are one of the smartest breeds.
He really is smart and gets bored if he isn’t getting stimulation. The Obi Dog Kennobi
When we first adopted our he learn his name in day, now he can open doors sometimes if they aren’t close all the way
I LOVE my Ratty! Most adorable sweetest, loving little rascal of a dog I’ve ever had. I’ve had 7 wonderful dogs over the past 35 years.

Oh man watching young OBI,reminds me of my JAKE, SO DAMNED CUTE,GOTTA LUV'EM💓💓💓♓
My toy rat terrier died last week. She was 14 yrs old. In dog yr is almost 100 yrs. We missed and love her so much.
So sorry to hear that! I hope you can find some joy in watching our Obi.
@@obitheratterrier6497 Yes. I'm loving your Obi.
Sorry.
cute baby
Ratties are the absolute best, I lost my Jack the Rat a year ago , he was 16 . Miss him so much.
Same my grandparents had a rat terrier that was about to be 17 but he stopped eating and they his days were numbered. Now they have a new rat terrier that almost looks like a miniature version of their older dog
Awesome!
I have a blue rat terrier and he acts exactly like yours. He is 1 year old now. They are such awesome dogs.
I love my Rat Terrier his two year anniversary is soon when we first adopted him. He has big personality
My rat terrier is 3years old she is a wonderful dog
What a great little dogg
Aww he look just like my Leah
Very cool
I recently adopted a stray rat terrier ...an absolute keeper, mines will need a bad tooth removed but I love him and he's fine!
Where did u get him pls
Did you have Obi’s ears docked or did they just stand up naturally? I saw him at 5 months old on another video and his ears are all the way up.
I had a female ratty named CoCo, her ears didn’t stand up till she was 8 months, they flopped backwards for a couple months first, then stood up like overnight
I have a toy rat terrier and her ears are almost always up in the air, but they were never docked or anything. Some dogs have better cartilage.
I dig the rat terrier my little girl rat terrier is 6 months now and can't get under the couch anymore
This terrier breed was originally bred with the purpose to squeeze into tight spaces in pursuit of vermin, foxes, etc. It is in this dog's very DNA to engage in this kind of behavior.
So true!!! He is still so funny the way he runs around. Loves playing fetch a
like it is work for him he is proud of!
My Rat Terrier Odie kept hearing you say Obi.
My dog is a Brat terrier(Boston/Rat mix)He's almost 30 lean lbs. He's often mistaken for a small pitbull due to his muscularity
He so cute. Our baby girl Leia is about to turn 7 months she so crazy
We just got our rat terrier and she is 9 weeks old too. How can we train her listen to commands?
He is adorable! We just lost our old boy (Rat Terrier) and we feel so empty...Spot was so important to us, so it is nice to see some videos of others who have rat terriers! Wendy Sowles IG: wendysowlesexploresmakeup
3 years old, hes 20 lbs? I want one but a girl one so shes not as big
Please could you respond with your breeders name & phone number. I miss my rattie so much and know it is been time enough for me to get another. Maybe I could get on their waiting list for their next batch of pups.
What a great & sweet dog you have there. They are the most wonderful breed! I sure enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing. 💗👍

We have one and he is a whole lot of fun and he is bad.
hahaha We can totally relate!!!
I have one. She's 15 .and sleeps all the time under cover
We just got our rat terrier 9 weeks old. She doesn’t seem to listen to my commands and doesn’t come when I CALL her. I need more training tips and tricks.
My rat terrier was barking at my neighbor’s body odor…
No locked cage for this little dog please. They like to sleep in human's beds.
My little princess Little Lady always sleeps on my bed. She loves it. She’s a cuddler at heart. She loves sitting on stuffed animals, a huge pillow, blankets, me, and other dogs. She’ll even burrow under the stuffed animals. ❤
Why people always put those dogs in the cage, what is it??
Is he pure or rescue
Obi is as pure as an Obi could possible be. 100% Obi. Not mixed with anything besides only The best of an Obi.

Poor thing in this tiny cage! Horrible to see! A leash at home! ..Poor dog!
Why would you crop this ratties tail? Terrible
We didn’t choose to have his tail copped. We also wish it hadn’t been done. But I assure you he is loving life. And today is his birthday!
ill never cut a dogs tale thats rly rude
