Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Ryder and I came into MVPC not feeling very well. I was discovered in some bramble, completely hairless, skinny and infected. It was horrible. I am now healthy and have my hair back. I have turned into such a pretty girl! When I came to the rescue I didn’t have much exposure to really anything. I would go on walks or to training and my eyes would get all red and I would start panting from stress. But you know what? I have learned commands and how to walk on a leash even though it was all new to me. I am good with other dogs with the proper introductions and love to play with my foster siblings. I have amazing recall, am great at “stay” and LOVE to play ball! I am super smart and just want to please you….and play ball! I am looking for a family that understands I may still get a little stressed with new things and my eyes turning red are a great indicator that I am getting stressed. But, I am HAPPY and CUDDLY and SWEET and am ready to learn anything you want to teach me, as long as I get to be with you!
Please understand that while I am doing well on potty and crate training, I will have accidents and may whine some as I adjust to my new schedule and family.
