Here's what the humans have to say about me:
My name is Rio and I am a timid I year old girl. I was picked up as a stray & so thin you could see all my ribs & hip bones. But my foster mom makes sure I have all I want to help me get to a better weight. I like people mostly, I just have to know you are safe for me to like. My foster mommy says I am doing so well with house training. I even went to the door for her to let her know. I want to please my person. I am able to sleep in the big bed in my foster home & boy to I love that! She even lets me sleep under the covers where it is toasty warm. I sometimes sleep on her pillow & she covers me with a blanket to stay warm. No matter where I am I have the knack of getting under a blanket. I am a quiet girl & love attention. My foster mom says I would do best as an only dog so I can get all the attention because I don’t seem to care about having siblings. Rio is up to date on all shots, microchiped, and spayed. Rio’s adoption fee is $225.00.WE DO NOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging transport, WE DO NOT SHIP DOGS.
