Meet Raiya! This lovely eleven-year-old Terrier mix is a calm and elegant presence, weighing in at 46 pounds. She's happiest when close to her people, enjoying simple pleasures like quiet walks, cozy naps, and the delightful crunch of her favorite carrots. Raiya's steady, low-energy personality makes her a comforting companion for those who appreciate a relaxed pace of life. She's house-trained, friendly to strangers, and gentle with children. When guests arrive, she'll offer a friendly announcement, adding a touch of watchful charm to her laid-back demeanor. Raiya knows basic commands like "sit" and "come" and responds well to kindness and consistency. She enjoys her two meals a day, is content when left alone, and even likes occasional car rides. Rawhides and dental chews are favorites, and she has an unmatched love for cooked chicken. When offering treats, it’s best to use a closed hand, as she's an eager snacker!
