My story

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

Potty Trained Gentle Giant!
3 week trial adoption.
Adoption fee sponsored.


Rico's story is all about second chances and big love.

He was adopted from us as a puppy and recently found his way back through no fault of his own - and we're so grateful for the opportunity to help him find his new home. Rico is ready for his happy ending.

As a big guy with an even bigger personality, he's kind of like that lovable uncle who shows up for dinner, talks a little loud, makes everyone laugh, and somehow eats all the pie. You can't help but adore him.

Rico is the whole package - he's potty trained and loves a good game of chase with compatible canine friends. With a little patience, affection, and a sense of humor for his big-goof energy, he'll blossom into the cuddly, loyal companion you've always dreamed of.

Give this gentle giant his second chance, and he'll fill your life with laughter, love, and be your new best friend.
