My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rio used to be a scared dog, but with the help of fosters and his animal friends, he is quickly becoming socialized and happy. He remains a bit shy and requires slow and patient adult interaction. Rio has been trained in a household with 4 rescue cats and interacts very well with all of them. He loves to be outside on walks. Although he is only 14 pounds he can, and will jump high fences. Rio is definitely at his best when he is together with at least 1 other dog.
