My story

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

~ ADOPTION PENDING ~

You may meet and apply to adopt Ricki at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23rd from 12 Noon – 3:00 at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH. (Our event is held INSIDE of the PETCO store.) adoptpetmatch@gmail.com

Ricki is a male Yorkshire Terrier/Maltese mix puppy approximately 3 1/2 months old. He is a bouncy baby boy with black and tan coloring, a medium length coat, and bright little dark chocolate brown eyes. Ricki is a happy go lucky, super social, well behaved and confident young pup who adjusts seamlessly to his environment, whatever that happens to be. He loves life, adores people, and wants to be with you wherever you are. As long as he can be with you, he's happy. Ricki will trot merrily after you throughout the house and follows close along after you outside. He loves to play and will romp here and there in the backyard being silly. Sometimes if he wants to play more outside he will scamper about and play chase with you, but he gives up in short order and will let you carry him back inside. Ricki enjoys playing with other dogs big and small and is not timid or shy in the least. He will most likely be the star at the dog park once he is old enough to go there. He has such a vivacious, engaging way about him. Ricki is doing well with his potty training and makes it outside most of the time. He sleeps soundly through the night in a doggie bed and will wait for you to tell him its time before he gets up to go out. He does appear to prefer to get up early but will snooze during the day if you want to take a quick nap with him. Ricki is a great cuddler and loves to be snuggled close to your side, carried, or perched in your lap. He is a wonderful little pup, great with kids, and welcomes friends and company with a happy doggie grin and wag of the tail. Ricki was rescued from the shelter where he was confiscated from a bad situation. He has been vet checked, is very healthy, and is going to make an outstanding pet. Ricki is ready for his new forever loving home today!

Ricki’s adoption donation is $525 (*TAX DEDUCTABLE). He has been NEUTERED, MICROCHIPPED, UTD on VACCINATIONS, DEWORMED, DEFLEAED and PROFESSIONALLY GROOMED. Also included is his collar with ID, harness, leash, folder with all of his records, a great PETCO coupon book, and a fun goodie bag with toys, etc.

Ricki is being fostered by Pet Match Rescue Foster Volunteers, Elizabeth and Zume and is ready for his forever home.

You may meet and apply to adopt Ricki at our ADOPTION EVENT on SUNDAY, OCTOBER 23rd from 12 Noon – 3:00 at PETCO in NEWPORT BEACH located at 1280 Bison Ave., Newport Beach, CA 92660. adoptpetmatch@gmail.com
