Rigel

Rigel is a 60lb hound/pit mix with a gentle spirit and a quiet confidence that makes him truly special. With his unique double dew claws on his back paws, he's as distinctive as he is lovable. True to his name, Rigel shines in a soft, steady way - affectionate, intuitive, and happiest when he's close to his people. He's fully house and crate trained, making him an easy addition to a home ready for a loyal companion. Rigel is both dog- and cat-friendly, so he'd do well in a multi-pet household or as a calm companion to another animal. He has a cuddly, emotionally attuned nature and settles in easily, whether it's relaxing at home or spending quiet time with his family. This sweet boy is ready for his forever home - one that will continue to love him, include him, and give him the stability he deserves. A steady, shining star, just waiting to belong.
