Story
Approx. DOB: 2/4/23 Approx Weight: 36 Lbs Adoption Fee: $225 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Meet Rizzo. Hi, I am Rizzo. I was found by some nice animal control officers wandering around a neighborhood park and trail. They said I must’ve had a home at some point because I already knew “sit” and “shake” when I came in, but unfortunately nobody ever came back to claim me. Furry Kids came to my rescue when that small animal control was running out of space. I’m approximately a seven month old German Shepherd mix, whatever that means. I love to go for walks, even though I know I need to work on my leash skills a bit. I don’t bark at other dogs on our walks, but I do pull a bit. It’s all just so exciting! I also love tennis balls, rope toys, and getting the zoomies several times a day! I’m also a professional fly catcher - if you have those annoying things in your house, and catching buzzing cicadas outside is a fun game I’ve recently discovered! There’s currently a dog in my foster home. Like a typical little brother, I love to annoy her. When she finally wants to play back, it makes my day! I also have four human kids in my foster home. They’re awfully fun, and I love stealing their stuffed animals. I can get a little mouthy… I’m a puppy and still learning. I don’t mean any harm in it…someone just needs to teach me the ropes! Because of this, I might do best in a home with older children. I love my people and like to put my head in your lap. I’m doing so well on potty training and sleep through the night on the floor of my foster parents bedroom without any incidents! I go in the crate just fine as well, as long as you tempt me with a treat! I’m looking for a home to call my own. Could that be yours? I’m a sweet boy who just wants a family to love I have been neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative, wormed and microchipped.
