Meet Rio! This handsome pup looks like a delicious Oreo cookie and his foster mom says he's her favorite treat. Rio is a smart and eager learner who loves to train for a tasty reward. He knows his name, "sit," "come," "down," and "rest" for cooperative care, along with a hand target. He’s also a big fan of fetch and tug-of-war! Rio is working on his dog-dog social skills and would do best with a sturdy, chill dog of his size or larger who isn't easily annoyed and can help guide him. He needs a confident canine mentor who will tolerate his playful antics. Rio is not a fan of cats, so this home must be cat-free. He's crate-trained and enjoys car rides, though he's still learning to be comfortable with restraints. Rio is loveable, active, and enjoys a good cuddle session on the couch, but he's always up for some fun! His foster mom, who is a professional trainer, is happy to offer guidance to help Rio continue on his journey to becoming the best boy he can be. If you're looking for an entertaining companion who will bring lots of joy and antics to your home, Rio might be the perfect fit for you!
