Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Ricky is a year old and weighs in at about 50 lbs. He is such a sweet boy, but is very shy and timid. Ricky just needs a little TLC and some work on the leash, but he is such a lovebug. He is wonderful with all other dogs. Ricky cannot wait to meet you and is going to make such a sweet and loving family companion. He would prefer a home with older children, as younger kids can scare him. He finds comfort in having a companion, and would best in a home with another dog.
This dog will be ready to leave our care in time for CPR's Triple Event Weekend!
