Male, 4 years old, 60lbs Approximate Age: ~4 years old   Approximate Weight/Size:    Large   Good with: Dogs   Not tested with: Cats, Kids   Hi, I'm Kevin! I have an awesome personality and I'm very well behaved. I love going for walks and getting to explore, but I'm also easy to please with just some treats and snuggles on the couch. I'm very affectionate and I'm a social butterfly, both with people and other dogs. I'm treat motivated, which is perfect for learning more commands and tricks. I also know "sit" and I'm great on a leash. The nice folks at RDR will update my profile when they learn more about me.   I can't wait to find a forever home where I can share all the love I've got to give!   Adoption Application: http://bit.ly/adoptrd r My adoption fee includes: Spay/Neuter Surgery (unless I'm too to young!)

Male, ~3 years old, ~49 lbs. Approximate Age: ~3 years old   Approximate Weight/Size:    Medium/ Large   Good with: Dogs   Not tested with: Cats, Kids   Hi, I'm Ribeye! I'm great with other dogs and as handsome as can be. I have opened up a ton in the past few weeks, but still require a quiet home with a fenced in yard outside of the city where I can gain my confidence and thrive in a more relaxing atmosphere. I probably want to get to know you a bit before I start sharing my love, but once I know you I'll open up! The nice folks at RDR will update my profile when they learn more about me.

Story
Male, ~7 years old, ~18 lbs. Approximate Age: ~7 years old   Approximate Weight/Size:    Small   Good with: Dogs   Not tested with: Cats, Kids   Hi, I'm Rocky! I'm a very nice and easy to care for Chi mix. I'm the sweetest and most mellow pup. I love constant scratches or to be sleeping in my bed or crate. When I'm not napping or asking for pets (which is often), I love a good game of fetch. I love to be around other dogs and to play at the dog park. I currently get along great with my foster sister. I'm down to go on a short walk, a long hike, or anything in between! I may also be a good running buddy to my forever family!   I just love to be around my people, and that's enough for me. I especially love and am good with kids. I would be a great first dog since I am so easy to care for , although I could use some additional leash training: I tend to get over-excited, especially at the beginning of a walk. As such, you probably have to watch the door to make sure I don't bolt out! I also tend to be a little mouthy, but I'm working with my foster on forgetting this habit. It's already gotten much better since I've come to D.C.! I am relatively quiet, and will only bark if I hear other dogs barking.     I can't wait to find a forever home where I can share all the love I've got to give!   Adoption Application: http://bit.ly/adoptrd r My adoption fee includes: Spay/Neuter Surgery (unless I'm too to young!)
