Rio

Meet Rio!

Rio is a graceful and smart young Shepherd mix, estimated to be born around May 1, 2025. She currently weighs about 30 pounds and is expected to be a medium-sized dog when fully grown. Rescued from an abandoned home, Rio is a resilient, friendly, and gentle soul who is already showing incredible potential. She is house-trained, crate-trained, and is even learning to ring a bell to signal when she needs to go outside. Rio gets along well with other dogs and has been gentle and friendly with children. She's a quick learner and eager to please, making her a wonderful companion for an active person or family. While she can be a bit reserved initially, she's blossoming into a loyal and affectionate pup who will thrive with love and continued guidance.
