About River

Meet Baby River: The Rookie Ready for His Forever Team! At just 7 weeks old, Baby River has already shown the heart of a true hockey champion. This pup got a tough start in life after being found underneath a school building in Puerto Rico alongside his nine littermates, all struggling to survive on their own. But just like the best comeback stories, River never gave up. Thanks to a rescue effort worthy of a championship save, he and his siblings were brought to safety and given a chance at a brighter future. Now thriving in New Jersey, River is ready to lace up his skates and join his forever team! This sweet little rookie is all about cuddles, playtime, and sticking close to his people. Whether he's scoring points with his puppy kisses, winning over teammates with his gentle personality, or making friends with kids, dogs, and cats alike, River is a natural MVP. River may be small, but he brings a whole lot of heart to the rink. he's looking for a loving family to coach him through puppyhood, cheer him on through life's adventures, and give him a permanent spot on their roster. Could Baby River be the first-round draft pick your family has been waiting for? Apply to add this lovable little hockey star to your team today!
