Meet Rio, an incredibly sweet pup with energy to spare! Rio is a true
puppy at heart, ready to explore, play, and learn. He's already mastered
the basics: he is crate trained, potty trained, and sleeps peacefully
through the night. He loves a good game of tug-of-war or fetch, and once
he's exercised, he's a wonderful snuggle buddy, happy to chew a bone
right in your lap!
He generally gets along great with other dogs, enjoying the company of
the dogs in his recent foster home. However, it's very important to note
that Rio is not a fit for a home with cats or other small animals.
As a young pup with a lot of pep, Rio will need committed, ongoing
training and structure to help him channel his high energy and master
his leash skills.
He also has a notable caution around new people,
showing some "stranger danger" when visitors enter his space. For this
reason, his ideal family must be prepared to manage this with a
consistent routine and a protocol like using high-value treats to build
positive associations with guests.
He would thrive in a predictable home with experienced owners and older,
patient children who can respect his boundaries as he adjusts. If
you're ready for an active, engaged dog who is committed to a training
routine, Rio has an enormous amount of love to give and could be the
perfect addition to your life!💗
