Ellsworth is heading to his new home this weekend so it's time to introduce our new foster dog. Please welcome Hartley to the New Rattitude Family!

| Hartley |
Hartley was found running with another stray near Kings Canyon National Park on a very busy highway. Tourists called the sheriff who quickly drove over to the location but one of the dogs, a shepherd breed, had already been hit by a car and killed. Hartley was still there though and was rescued by the sheriff. When the owner wasn't found, New Rattitude was contacted about her.
Hartley is about 2-3 years of age and the guess on her weight is 17 pounds. She is a sweet, good natured mothering little dog and loves cats. In fact she was caring for a young kitten in her temporary foster home - cleaning and snuggling him. She is great with other dogs and sounds like an all around gem. We can't wait to meet this long legged beauty!

Hartley was named for the American Modernist painter and poet, Marsden Hartley. The landscape was his favorite painting subject and he was inspired by Cezanne along with the writings of Blake and Emerson.
