Ria is a 2-year-old black and white terrier mix weighing about 54 pounds. She is spayed, heartworm negative, and ready to find a steady home of her own.
Ria is a sweet but timid girl who’s still learning that the world is a safe place. She does well on leash, though she can be a little nervous in new situations and benefits from a patient, gentle handler. She’s the kind of dog who quietly sticks close once she trusts you.
Ria would do best in a home with another calm, friendly dog to help boost her confidence. With time, consistency, and kindness, she will show how affectionate and loyal she can be.
If you’re looking for a gentle companion and don’t mind going at her pace, Ria could be a wonderful fit.
If you have other dogs, we would suggest a meet and greet to guarantee safety and companionship.

HSSM is home to over 300 pets on any given day, most of which are looking for new forever homes! Your new best friend could be waiting at HSSM right now. Our beautiful, 41,000 square foot facility is currently open to the public. HSSM is open for adoptions Tuesday – Friday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. No appointment is necessary to adopt, however, adoptions are first-come, first served. You must come to HSSM to complete your adoption and make sure you bring a photo ID, as it is required to complete adoption paperwork.
Our adoptable animals page is self-updating and displays ALL of HSSM’s adorable adoptable pets from “pocket pets” to birds and of course the hundreds of dogs and cats currently calling HSSM home! See one you like? Make sure you note your favorite’s name and animal ID number so that HSSM staff and volunteers can easily find him/her when you come in!
Adoptions are cut off every day about 30 minutes prior to closing and possibly earlier if volume is high. Weekends are busy and you may have to wait more than an hour (especially in the afternoons) so please be prepared.
