My story

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

****COURTESY POST**** [The current owner will require proof that a neuter has been prepaid for this dog. It is also highly recommended that this dog be the ONLY dog in the home.]

Rigby is located in Amarillo, Texas. Please private message us for contact information.

From Rigby's current owner:

"Rigby is a year old possibly older. When he was a little puppy I found him roaming an alley and I picked him up and brought him home.We posted flyers and online trying to find Rigby a home but had no luck. He was full of love and kisses but we made the decision to make him an outside dog because my husband wasn't too crazy about adding another dog to the family. Rigby has always been outside with a heated and air conditioned dog house and he is petted daily. We made the decision to put our older dog outside with Rigby so that he wouldn't be alone and he could have a companion during the day. Rigby hasn't been neutered. Rigby has gradually been more and more aggressive towards my older dog and we've finally made the decision to find Rigby a new home because we don't want him to hurt my older dog anymore. I have fought and argued with my husband from day 1 about keeping this dog and just don't have the fight in me anymore now that he's been so aggressive towards our older dog.

Rigby, 1 year old corgi/weenie dog mix. Found when he was a puppy and no one claimed him so we brought him home. Rigby has always been an outside dog since we found him. We never neutered him because we've always been on edge about whether or not we could keep him. Recently Rigby has been aggressive towards my older dog so we have decided to get him into a home where a family can give him an indoor home where he can have the love and attention he deserves. Rigby loves having his belly rubbed and especially loves when your rub his ears. Rigby is a very hyper boy and he can run you tired! Still very much a puppy at heart. Rigby can catch just about anything and on occasion that includes birds that are in his yard wink emoticon I think if he could be neutered and trained well he could be an excellent dog and an even better companion. Unfortunately we're just not at a place where we can do that right now, please let me know if you can give this guy a good home! Located in Amarillo Tx."
