River is a 3-year-old sweetheart who has stolen the hearts of our staff and volunteers. Despite her loving nature, she continues to be overlooked. Initially shy when she arrived, she has blossomed before our eyes into a fun and sweet pup with an incredibly loving personality. Once she gets to know you, she's all about playtime but also knows how to settle down for some relaxation.
River thrives in an environment where she can be the center of attention and absolutely loves adventures. Her adoption fee has been sponsored, so there's no cost to bring this wonderful companion into your life. If adoption isn't an option for you right now, please consider fostering or becoming an adoption ambassador to help River find her happily ever after!
