Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rico is a very easy going boy, who gets along with every dog he meets. He has a nice, gentle, laid back personality. He enjoys being around people but is not fond of small children.
Although he does well in a crate, he is not required to go in his crate in his foster home…he just retreats to his crate whenever he wants “alone time!”
We are not sure of Rico’s breed but we believe he is part Sheltie. He is estimated to be 5 years old, and weighs 16 lbs. He is fully vetted, up-to-date on all vaccinations, neutered, heartworm negative and on year-round heartworm prevention, and microchipped.
