Girly-girl was born in a fancy kennel to two expensive Champion parents. Alas, not of the same breed. Described as a terrible event her Highly Pedigreed Toy Poodle mother fell in love with the equally well papered tan Toy Pincer. So Miss Star, the awful accident of birth has good poodle leather demanded of classic ears and long lathe legs of a dancer common to the Pincer family.
 
Not saleable she became not worth feeding by the third month of her tiny 3 pound life.
 
Starved as a puppy, when given food today she still hides it in preparation for her next famine.
 
Last year as Fall rolled around, weather turned cold, large Field Rats as most as big as the pup, invaded home. They were all she had to play with.
 
Their the food-friends obviously smelled Rat girl's scent on their dinner. It is assumed they  deemed her their giver, perhaps even savior.

Now "Ugly" girl's fortune has changed. Somebody discovered she is not only willing to work, she's smart and enjoys the attention it brings.

It would hardly matter if she were dumb, her gregarious personality that loves everyone she meets, the poodle in her probably, has already won her friends who number in the hundreds.

Better Known as "Rat Dog - The Food Princess" as a result of having been nearly starved to death when a puppy, Rat hides most nourishment she is given. Stashed treasure then saved lives of her Rodent Friends.
     Today because of her unique physical appearance and non-stop personality along with willingness to play-the-clown, she does commercials.
     Rat is to be the dog-of-the-day in upcoming Native American movie "The Nameless Ones' depicting the life of American's last great Apace Chief, Nino Cochise.
