Here's what the humans have to say about me:
RICHIE***CONTACT MICHELLE mmay@kylabrescue.com RICHIE--"ONE GENTLE--LOVING--BEYOND ADORABLE PUP!! RICHIE IS A PRECIOUS, WEEK OLD, 5 LB. SHIH TZU/POODLE MIX PUPPY OFTEN REFERRED TO AS A "SHIH-POO". NOT JUST ANOTHER PRETTY FACE, THIS TINY PUP GOES WAY BEYOND PRETTY(GUESS IT'S ALL RIGHT FOR A GUY TO BE PRETTY?)!!! THE FIRST TIME YOU SEE RICHIE HE WILL STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS AND WORDS LIKE "OH!! HE SOOOOO CUTE" WILL COME GUSHING OUT OF YOU MOUTH!!! HIS COAT IS CUDDLE SOFT, A PALE PALE CHAMPAGNE(ALMOST WHITE) COLOR WHICH LOOKS LIKE RICHIE WAS DIPPED IN VANILLA ICE CREAM!! HIS COAT IS SO SOFT IT FEELS LIKE VELVET, YOU WILL WANT TO PAT AND RUB THIS LITTLE FLUFF OF A PUPPY ALL DAY WHICH AS MUCH AS THIS LITTLE CUDDLER ADORES ATTENTION AND AFFECTION THIS IS JUST FINE WITH HIM. NEXT THAT ADORABLE FACE WITH EYES THAT WILL TRULY MAKE YOU MELT, THEY ARE HUGE, A SPARKLING DEEP CHESTNUT COLOR WITH THE CUTEST "LOVE ME" EXPRESSION, IN OUR OPINION IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO. THEY TRULY SEEM TO TWINKLE LIKE A MILLION STARS WHEN RICHIE FIRST SEES YOU. THIS PRECIOUS PUP SHOULD HAVE BEEN NAMED "HAPPY" BECAUSE BOY IS HE. HE HAS A GENTLE, LOVING, GLOWING TEMPERAMENT AND DISPOSITION. RICHIE JUST THINKS THAT EVERYONE HE MEETS SHOULD STOP WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND COME PLAY WITH HIM. THIS LITTLE GUY NEVER MEETS A STRANGER, FROM CHILDREN TO SENIORS, JUST CALL HIS NAME AND STRAIGHT TO YOU HE'S COMING, EYES SPARKLING, TAIL WAGGING, OR IN RICHIE'S CASE HIS WHOLE BODY IS JUST ONE TINY WIGGLE. JUST GIVE RICHIE HIS FAVORITE CHEW BONE, A PAT OR GIVE HIM A TOY TO PLAY WITH AND NOW HE HAS OFFICIALLY ADOPTED "YOU" AS HIS NEW BEST BUDDY!!! HE COULD ALSO BE CALLED "MR. SOCIAL" AS HE ADORES EVERY DOG HE MEETS, IN FACT RICHIE SPENDS HIS DAYS PLAYING WITH SEVERAL OF OUR KENTUCKY LAB RESCUE PUPPIES, TO WATCH RICHIE AND HIS PUPPY PLAY BUDDIES ROLL, TUMBLE AND CHASE TOYS WILL INDEED BRING A HUGE SMILE TO YOUR FACE(HE'S EVEN FINE WITH CATS). YOU COULD TAKE THIS "LIFE IS GOOD" TINY PUPPY ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, JUST GET USE TO BEING STARED AT WHEN FOLKS SEE RICHIE--HE IS A SHOW STOPPER!!!! WHATEVER YOUR DAY CALLS FOR IS JUST FINE WITH RICHIE JUST AS LONG AS HE GETS TO GO!!! IF IT WAS YOUR DAY TO TAKE THE CHILDREN TO SCHOOL JUST SCOOP UP THIS LITTLE BALL OF FLUFF, GRAB HIS FAVORITE PUPPY TREAT, OPEN THE CAR DOOR NOW TAKE OFF!!!! RICHIE DOESN'T KNOW WHERE HE'S GOING AND IT DOESN'T MATTER TO HIM IF HE'S WITH YOU HE'S HAPPY!!!! THERE IS ANOTHER PART TO THIS GREAT PUP'S PACKAGE--RICHIE IS SMART!!! HE IS A VERY ALERT LITTLE GUY, ALWAYS AWEAR ON WHAT'S GOING ON AROUND HIM. ANYTHING YOU INTRODUCE HIM TO HE WANTS TO KNOW WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES!!!! HE IS A PUP THAT IS EAGER TO LEARN, EASY TO TEACH BUT MOST OF ALL DELIGHTS IN PLEASING!!!! THE POTENTIAL FOR THIS PUP IS HUGE!!! RICHIE IS SUCH A HAPPY, LITTLE GUY WHAT WE CALL AN "EASY FIT" HIS FIRST DAY WITH YOU WOULD THINK HE HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF YOUR LIFE. IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO MAKE RICHIE HAPPY JUST A NEVER ENDING SUPPLY OF CHEW BONES(SAVES YOUR FAVORITE SHOE), A FEW DOZEN TENNIS BALLS, SOME SQUEAKY TOYS, THEN ADD A TON OF HUGS, KISSES AND LOVE AND YOU HAVE ONE VERY HAPPY, BEAUTIFUL, LITTLE GUY!!!! ALTHOUGH RICHIE DOES HAVE EVERY TRAIT YOU COULD EVER WANT IN A FAMILY COMPANION THE THING HE WANTS MOST IS TO BE A PART OF A FAMILY WHO WILL SEE WHAT A TREASURE HE IS AND LOVE HIM. ALL HE IS ASKING IS FOR A SOFT BED TO CUDDLE UP ON AT NIGHT, A KISS AND TO HEAR THE WORDS "RICHIE WE LOVE YOU" SPOKEN BY HIS FAMILY AND RICHIE WILL CLOSE THOSE GORGEOUS EYES, DRIFT OFF TO SLEEP AND YOU CAN BET HIS PUPPY DREAMS INCLUDE A TRIP TO THE PARK, A CAR RIDE, TOYS AND TONS OF HUGS AND KISSES FROM HIS FAMILY!!!! THIS IS ONE EXCEPTIONAL BEYOND GORGEOUS LITTLE GUY!!!!!
