Ricky

Ricky is a Miniature American Shepherd puppy born on January 22nd. He's a tiny, 7 lb bundle of fun who is incredibly human-focused and adores everyone he meets. Ricky gets along wonderfully with all dogs, big or small, and isn't afraid to play with the bigger pups, nor is he rough with the tiniest of puppies. He's a quick learner, motivated by toys, food, and praise, and has already mastered walking on a leash, sitting, and has a great recall. He's also working on retrieving and is making excellent progress with potty training, both on pads and for outside. Ricky has a special love for water and hoses and is surprisingly quiet for his breed. He's even started learning disc foundations and has traveled extensively, doing well at large dog shows. While he's generally happy in his kennel, he does get a little FOMO when he sees other dogs training! He is also doing well with potty training, but as he is too little to use the dog door, he may have accidents if he can't get your attention when he needs to go outside.
