Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Ryder from Maya’s transport litter. He was born on June 2nd en route to his foster home. Ryder will likely be med/large when full grown. His mom is a Shepherd mix, his dad is unknown but likely a bully breed. Ryder is a true catch… potty trained, doing great on recall, and doing very well at learning climbs (staying on a bed or elevated surface when told to climb also known as place). He’s energetic and loves people, children, and all dogs. Ryder will need a privacy fenced yard or to be on a leash/tie down outside as he can jump a four foot fence. As with all puppies a commitment to providing training and positive learning reinforcements is required for their success. If you are ready to meet Ryder or one of his siblings apply by filling out the application on our website - www.foreverhomedogs.org. HIS ADOPTION FEE HAS BEEN REDUCED TO $150 and includes neuter / microchip / core shots.All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots.
Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
